Can gluten cause asthma? This is a question that researchers have been asking for many years. If you suffer with asthma or COPD, keep reading to learn more about the connections between gluten, grain, celiac disease, and asthma.

Asthma affects approximately 25 million adults and children in the United States. It’s an inflammatory disorder that involves the airways that lead to your lungs.

A trigger causes irritation, which causes your airways to swell and mucus to form as part of your body’s immune response. Your muscles surrounding your airways also tense up. And when these things happen, it can become difficult to breathe as well as cause an “asthma attack”, which may involve:

– Coughing
– Wheezing
– Chest tightening
– Fatigue
– Anxiousness
– Difficulty talking
