Wed, 08 Aug 2001 21:10:06 EDT An asthma study from Tel-Aviv University reported that the antioxidant, lycopene, may be the answer to EIA (exercise induced asthma) problems (Allergy 00;55(12):1184-9). This was a short term study, but it showed thatout of twenty patients with EIA, 1/2 the group was given 30 mg. of lycopene a day for a week (equivalent to 3/4 of tomato sauce), and vs. the other 1/2 of controls, 55% had an improvement in their lung function (vs. 15% reduction in the controls) following a set exercise program. I thought that this may be of interest to those that were using the asthma " string-of-ailments-limiting-my recovery " " crutch " .

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2001 Report Share Posted August 11, 2001 OT- but is Port Norfolk the same as plain old Norfolk? I lived in Norfolk,VA for 6 months when I was 18 while my brother was in the Navy... And he used to live in Portsmouth... I like WA better though! But I miss being able to see alot of the east coast outdoors! Sindeadriving Washington nuts since 1991... Go ahead, I can take a flogging; my bristles aren't all the way down from my last post yet!!
