A member asked:
Is there any supplements i could take to help with my sob after exertion besides drs inhalers.

SOB treatment: It depends why you are short of breath. If you're SOB because you have exercise induced bronchospasm (1/3 of the American summer Olympic team has that) you should be taking a bronchodilator just before you start your exercise routine and voila, no more SOB. If you are generally out of shape that is another issue. The first thing is very common and frequently under diagnosed.
