Drink Recipes for Fighting Asthma
Are you on the lookout for ideas for smoothies, juices and other drinks that can help prevent and relieve asthma symptoms? If so, you have come to the right place. In this section of HealWithFood.org'sNutrition Guide to Fighting Asthma you will find drink recipes that call for foods rich in nutrients that can help ease symptoms in asthmatic individuals:
Asthma-Fighting Banana and Apple Smoothie
One study found that children who drank apple juice daily were half as likely to suffer from wheezing as those who drank it less than once a month. Bananas were found to exert a similar, albeit a weaker, benefit. Raspberry Banana Smoothie (with Rice Milk)
This dairy-free smoothie is bursting with vitamin B6, potassium, vitamin C, and quercetin. What's more, both the raspberries and the ground flaxseed add healthful omega-3 fatty acids to this delectable anti-asthma smoothie. Watermelon and Green Tea Smoothie
This thirst quenching smoothie is ideal for hot summer days. But it is also great for people with asthma as watermelon is literally brimming with lycopene, a type of carotenoid that has been shown to be particularly effective at controlling exercise-induced asthma. In addition to lycopene, this drink contains plenty of beta-carotene, vitamin C, potassium, and magnesium. Pear Frost with a Ginger Twist
A vast body of evidence suggests that pears can provide increased protection against asthma. Also ginger is thought to aid in the treatment of asthma as it contains gingerols, strong anti-inflammatory substances that also give ginger its distinctive flavor. Minty Pear Cooler
A high consumption of pears has been directly linked to increased protection against asthma. Also mint is thought to aid in the treatment of asthma as it can act as a relaxant and give relief in congestion. Want More Recipes?
