Can plant sterols help treat my asthma?

One of the basic biochemical dysfunctions in allergy is the increase of the immunoglobulin IgE and specific T-cell activity. Overactive Th2 cells increase IgE antibody formation, chemotaxis of neutrophils, and eosinophilia, leading to an improper immune and inflammatory response. A hopeful line of asthma research treatment lies with plant sterols and sterolins (sterol glycosides).

A blend of these (in a ratio of 100:1) has been shown to increase Th1 activity while dampening Th2 in animals and humans with chronic viral infections, tuberculosis and HIV. Clinical studies of this compound are ongoing for treatment of the immune system-related diseases rheumatoid arthritis, HIV, hepatitis C, human papilloma virus, and asthma/allergic rhinitis. Research-based evidence is currently lacking for asthma.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
