Asthma
Includes
Bronchial asthma and allergic asthma.
Description
Asthma (from the Greek (ásthma), via the Latin asthma, meaning "panting") is a respiratory disease affecting the lower airways, particularly the bronchioles, and is characterized by respiratory difficulty when exhaling.
With the exception of allergic asthma, in most cases, asthma is caused by nutritional deficiencies (e.g. magnesium, essential fatty acids and zinc), or to a delayed food hypersensitivity (intolerance).
In the case of allergic asthma, food intolerances are also suspected to play a role (see our article on Food Allergies).
