THE LINK BETWEEN ASTHMA AND WHOLE GRAINS

Many people may not know that whole grains are not just for healthy eating but a healthy life.  There is a link between asthma and whole grains which is a health benefit.  This is just some of the information I found linking the two together.

According to the American Lung Association, almost 20 million Americans suffer from asthma, which is reported to be responsible for over 14 million lost school days in children, and an annual economic cost of more than $16.1 billion.

Increasing consumption of whole grains and fish could reduce the risk of childhood asthma by about 50%, suggests the International Study on Allergy and Asthma in Childhood (Tabak C, Wijga AH, Thorax).

 Just hoping to give you information on why whole grains can be a smart choice. I hope you find the information useful or beneficial. So put that in your back pocket.
