According to an article published this month in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, the scientific journal of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI):
“There is a possible cause-and-effect relationship between vitamin D deficiency and uncontrolled asthma. Evidence suggests that vitamin D has a number of biologic factors that are important in regulating key mechanisms in asthma.”
Authors conducted a review of almost 60 years of literature on vitamin D and asthma. According to the article, vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased airway hyperresponsiveness, lower lung functions, and inferior asthma control. Vitamin D deficiency is more common with obesity, in African American ethnicity and westernization of countries reflecting a higher-risk population for asthma.
