Basically there are two categories of asthma conventional medications.
The first one prevents asthma symptoms from developing and the second one alleviates them once they have started.
Are you looking for a natural way to relieve your symptoms of asthma? Have you recently heard about the amazing health benefits of broccoli sprouts? It would be the best diet to treat inflammation in asthma.
Let's see how this vegetable can play this great role? Broccoli Sprouts and Active Component A natural active component in broccoli called sulforaphane was discovered in 1992.
Since its discovery, a large number of studies have explained its active role in cancer prevention as an indirect antioxidant.
Recent studies have demonstrated that sulforaphane activates a few antioxidants enzymes which are able to protect damage cells from inflammation.
Sulforaphane would be able to prevent respiratory tract cells from reacting to allergens.
The other cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, kale, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts contain also sulforaphane but in lesser quantity.
Broccoli and Asthma Because broccoli sprouts contain a large amount of sulforaphane compound (250 mg per 100 g of broccoli), people with asthma are encouraged to add this vegetable to their diet in order to prevent airways inflammation.
How much broccoli would a patient with asthma have to eat to benefit from its medicinal properties? Scientists don't know yet! More research is necessary.
But if someone with asthma eat broccoli regularly, he would be able to breathe easier.
