According to the Herald, Eating one of the less popular vegetables can help asthmatics breathe easier, researchers have discovered. They say eating up to two cups of lightly steamed broccoli a day can help clear the airways, prevent deterioration in the condition and even reduce or reverse lung damage. Problems: The research hasnt been peer-reviewed nor published, is described as experimental by the people doing it (one of whom is a Masters student, so fairly new to research), and they would not reveal how the study was carried out, beyond the fact that they made their claim as a result of laborartory tests, which tells us precisely nothing. Unsurprisingly, the medical director for the Asthma Foundation of New Zealand, Kyle Perrin, did not want to comment on this miraculous breakthrough without knowing how it was done. The Herald shouldnt either.
