Effect of A2 milk on Exercise Performance and Severity of EIB in Asthmatics
01 January 1970
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect on airway health, health status and exercise performance in athletes with asthma and exercise induced asthma who switch to using A2 milk from regular cows’ milk. Regular Cow’s milk contains a mix of A1 and A2 protein. Previous research has shown that A1 protein may affect gut transit and inflammation. Work in other areas has demonstrated that inflammation in the gut may translate to the lungs and impact on asthma severity.
