Studies show that cod liver oil can prevent dry skin, help individuals who have arthritis and aid in increasing vitamin and omega-3 fatty acids which are essential for cardiovascular health. But the question some have raised is: can cod liver oil help asthma?<br />
<br />
It seems that asthma attacks can be treated by including an adequate amount of essential fatty acids in the diet, particularly the omega-3 fatty acids found in cod liver oil. Researchers report that omega-6 is the most widely consumed of the fatty acids, whereas omega-3 is the least consumed.<br />
<br />
Asthma is considered to be an inflammatory condition and since we know that omega-3 fatty acids can curb inflammatory conditions, then it is reasonable to assume that cod liver oil can be an effective alternative in the treatment of this condition.<br />
<br />
Children have been shown in studies to be more likely to develop asthma when they do not receive the proper nutrients such as Vitamins C, E, and B12, as well as zinc, selenium, magnesium and beta-carotene. An effective treatment for sufferers of asthma is considered to be a diet that includes these important nutrients along with cod liver oil.<br />
<br />
It has been found that there is a need to supplement the diet with cod liver oil in order to maintain sufficient levels of the vitamins and fatty acids in the body. Research has shown that it's hard to get enough omega-3 fatty acids through diet alone.<br />
<br />
When one asthma sufferer experienced wheezing she took cod liver oil and found relief. When she stopped taking it the wheezing started again. It appears, then, that cod liver oil reduces asthma symptoms.<br />
<br />
The first thing you need to do if you suspect that you or your child has asthma is to visit your doctor. He or she can tell you if cod liver oil is right for you, particularly if you already have a medical condition or are taking medication which might interfere with the oil.<br />
<br />
Cod liver oil seems to help asthma patients, and judging from the overall consensus in researching the relationship between the cause and effect of asthma, this may be an effective alternative among <a href="http://asthmatreatmenttoday.info/category/asthma-treatments/">asthma treatments</a>.</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />
