You might recall from my earlier post that the effective strategy for preventing Exercise-induced Asthma is to limit air intake in the first place, as too much fast-moving cold and dry air is most likely the culprit for Exercise-induced Asthma.<\/p>\n<p>You may wonder how much you should limit the air intake. You could of course use your experience or gut feeling, which may not be right at times.

However, at most rest times, you could appear perfectly normal.<\/p>\n<p>This narrowed airway condition can be effectively measured by a type of medical device called a spirometer, which measures Vital Lung Capacity (FVC), Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), and Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), plus the FEV1\/FVC ratio.<\/p>\n<p>When your airways are narrowed, your PEF and FEV1 will be lower than normal, thus the FEV1\/FVC will be lower than normal too.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a guideline for early warning of asthma symptoms and what you should do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If your FEV1\/FVC is less than 75% before any exercise, do not do any intensive exercise.<\/li>\n<li>if your FEV1 and PEF after each exercise are lower than those before the exercise by 15% or FEV1\/FVC is less than 75%, you should reduce the exercise intensity next time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The BT+ APP can measure FVC, PEF, FEV1 and the FEV1\/FVC ratio.
