But these steps may help:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Eat to maintain a healthy weight.<\/strong> Being overweight can worsen asthma. Even losing a little weight can improve your symptoms. Learn how to eat right to maintain a healthy weight over the long term.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.<\/strong> They&#8217;re a good source of antioxidants such as beta carotene and vitamins C and E, which may help reduce lung swelling and irritation (inflammation) caused by cell-damaging chemicals known as free radicals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid allergy-triggering foods.<\/strong> Allergic food reactions can cause asthma symptoms. In some people, exercising after eating an allergy-causing food leads to asthma symptoms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take in vitamin D.<\/strong> People with more-severe asthma may have low vitamin D levels. Milk, eggs and fish such as salmon all contain vitamin D. Even spending a few minutes outdoors in the sun can increase vitamin D levels.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid sulfites.<\/strong> Sulfites can trigger asthma symptoms in some people. Used as a preservative, sulfites can be found in wine, dried fruits, pickles, fresh and frozen shrimp, and some other foods.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s also possible that eating less salt (sodium) or eating foods rich in oils found in cold-water fish and some nuts and seeds (omega-3 fatty acids) may reduce asthma symptoms. But more research is needed to verify this.<\/p>\n<p>Making informed choices about what foods to eat and what foods to avoid won&#8217;t cure asthma. But eating a balanced diet and avoiding known trigger foods may improve your symptoms and your overall health.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can what you eat affect your asthma?
