What is the best way to optimize lung function with chronic asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Optimizing lung func: aerobic exercise is a definite factor in improving lung function. Swimming seems to play a role. Deep breathing exercises such as yoga have had conflicting findings however it does seem to show modest benefit. Weight loss and supplementation with vitamin D seem to be helpful and lung function.
