Apples and Asthma - Asthma has many restrictions, mainly related to pets. It's hard for people with asthma have a cute cat or, say adorable fluffy rabbit. But to live with asthma is not just a debate about pets, but rather how to adapt to the suffering that limits a person's ability to breathe, while reducing the quality of life of sufferers.
Of the various treatments and therapies, encouraging news emerged recently. Institute for Heart and Lung National at Imperial College London, conducted the research with fruit intake monitored 2,640 children aged between 5 to 10 years and to record the data.
Children who drank apple juice from fruit concentrate directly, at least once a day, lowering the risk of wheezing of asthma by 47 percent compared to children who drank apple juice once a week or less.
Based on previous research, which showed increased lung function with a high consumption of fruit, apples and apple juice research was carried out on children, after the Imperial College to conduct clinical trials in adults.
In previous research, Dr Seif O, discover if eating more apples have a direct relationship with a reduced risk of symptoms of asthmatic reactions. "But be wrong to say, based on the data, we suggest that drinking apple juice will reduce the risk of asthma," Shaheen said in an interview. "We just show the relationship, and we have not presented any corroborative evidence if the association is causal," he added
When eating an apple rather than drink apple, do not have a direct effect on the performance of the lungs of children, the researchers say, the juice is likely to have a higher concentration of antioxidants from whole fruit.
Not just apple, Institute study also found that children who eat a banana every day also has a low enough risk of asthma symptoms compared to those who ate bananas a week or once a month.
Although, some studies that prove the positive results in the use of antioxidant fruits, especially apples find the one that decreases symptoms after an asthma attack. Only the researchers remain cautious and says more research needs to be done to prove again
The research was published in the European Respiratory Journal was partly initiated by parents who noted the fruit intake of their children along with various asthma symptoms appear and frequency.
Breath "whistle", a sign of the lungs if obstructed breathing path is a general indication of asthma symptoms, although not always wheezing going towards asthma.
The leader of the research on children, Peter Burney said that apples may help, because keeping the airways are kept clean with chemicals and acid content of the fruit. The content it prevents the inflammation that resulted breath "whistling", and also asthma.
Peter himself is not quite sure the relationship between apples and definite reduction of asthma symptoms, and said further research needs to be done in the future. "Research needs to be conducted to confirm the effectiveness of apple juice and bananas," he said.
In previous studies, the institute also advises pregnant women who are trying to protect their babies from asthma candidates later, to eat a lot of apples. Shaheen explains, fruit antioxidants protect against damaging oxidant pressure especially air pollution. Doctors and researchers also agreed if a diet rich in antioxidants is a good idea.
Lara Endrezi, health columnist in the United States said that, as an adult he was no longer thinking of having a pet, but admitted that his life is much better than the first, when it began to regularly consume apple juice every day. He has even rarely go to the doctor "If only we knew this information along, and we were quite spacious yard, of course we already have one apple tree," he said.
