Food
avoided in asthma?
There is no one specific food that should be universally
avoided by all people with asthma. However, some people with asthma may find
that certain foods can trigger their asthma symptoms. These trigger foods can
vary from person to person, so it is important to identify your own trigger
foods through trial and error and consulting with your healthcare provider.
Some common trigger foods for asthma include:
Dairy products such as milk, cheese, and ice cream.
Eggs
Peanuts and other nuts
Soy products
Wheat and other grains
Certain fruits such as bananas, citrus fruits, and
strawberries
Food additives such as sulfites and monosodium glutamate
(MSG)
In general, it is important for people with asthma to
maintain a healthy, balanced diet that includes a variety of fruits,
vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoiding trigger foods can help
manage asthma symptoms, but it is also important to work with a healthcare
provider to develop a comprehensive asthma management plan that includes
medication, regular check-ups, and avoidance of environmental triggers such as
allergens and irritants.
