Perception of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction in College Athletes.
BACKGROUND Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) can lead to long-term respiratory illness and even death. EIB prevalence rates are both high and variable in college athletes. Also, prevalence rates may be underestimated due to ineffective screening. The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of EIB and the perceived impact of EIB in college athletes via a self-report quest...

It has also been shown that a 3-week fish oil diet, rich in omeg...
