https://www.afinalwarning.com/474070.html (Natural News) Researchers generally agree that obesity, a complex disease characterized by an excessive amount of body fat, and asthma, a chronic respiratory condition characterized by breathing difficulties, are closely linked.
Unfortunately, the link between the two is poorly understood. Some scientists believe that obesity places direct pressure on the lungs, while others suggest that obesity-related inflammation exacerbates asthma.
Now, new research suggests another possible driver of asthma: fat accumulation in the lungs. Published in the
European Respiratory Journal, it showed that overweight or obese people with asthma have a greater amount of fat accumulation in their airways.
