Abstract

The prevalence of both asthma and obesity in the pediatric population is steadily increasing, and even the obese–asthma phenotypes are postulated. Obese children with asthma experience more asthma symptoms, more frequent exacerbations, and worse response to treatment; they also report a lower quality of life compared with lean asthmatics. Some of the etiological factors for asthma and obesity may overlap. Perhaps asthma and obesity share a common genetic and immunologic origin. Diet is a compelling modifiable factor in obesity and asthma prevention and control, although the relationship between these two diseases is certainly multifactorial. In this article, we analyze the impact of dietary intervention and weight loss in obese children on asthma prevention and control.
