New York, Nov. 22 (Reuters Health) – Women who are obese are more likely to develop asthma, new study findings suggest, but the reasons for this association are still unclear. “These data add to existing evidence that excess body fat is a major cause of human disease and suggest a new avenue for asthma management and prevention,” Dr, Carlos Camargo, Jr., of Harvard University in Boston Massachusetts, and colleagues say in the November 22nd issue of Archives of Internal Medicine.
