Book excerpt: The incidence and severity of asthma continues to rise across the world. 300 million people are now affected globally without any end in sight The reason for this is not known. The hygiene hypothesis that led the way for a long time has collapsed without any other plausible theory to take its place. Asthma, is debilitating and distressing. It impacts on daily life affecting the quality of life, relationships and ultimately the individual's potential. We cannot even assert that asthma is a single disease since half of cases do not appear to have an allergic component to them. We do know that the incidence and severity of individuals with asthma have increased since the early 1960's. This is when a number of major changes in diet took place which removed anti-inflammatory food groups and introduced allegedly 'healthier' pro-inflammatory foods into our diets. With these changes a whole host of diseases either surfaced or increased in incidence and severity, including asthma. These foods are examined in detail. The author shows how metabolic pathways are compromised by the foods that we eat so that the end products are tipped in the favour of inflammatory products - especially those that are responsible for asthma.Finally, the author shows how you can make simple changes that will reduce the severity of symptoms and the need for medication.
