Weight management program improves asthma control, life quality in patients with obesity

Weight management programs can help patients with obesity control their asthma by addressing the link between body weight and breathing problems. By focusing on diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes, these programs reduce inflammation in the body and improve lung function. Losing weight decreases inflammatory substances that irritate airways, making breathing easier and reducing asthma symptoms. When patients lose weight, they also reduce physical pressure on their chest and diaphragm, which helps them breathe more easily and rely less on asthma medications. Beyond physical improvements, participants often experience better overall health, increased confidence, and a higher quality of life.
