Supplements for Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (cough or wheeze with exertion).
When exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (cough or wheeze with exertion) is the complaint, these are the supplements most often associated with it in the NutriStack library, ranked by how directly each one targets it and by the strength of the evidence.
Ranked by relevance, top first.
Relevance reflects how directly each supplement targets this symptom in the NutriStack map. Evidence is the supplement’s own rating. Open any name for the full profile.
- 01Fish OilModerate72% match
Omega-3 fatty acids dampen the inflammatory eicosanoid pathways that drive airway narrowing during exercise.
SuggestedFish Oil providing about 3 g combined EPA and DHA daily - 02Vitamin CLimited68% match
Antioxidant vitamin C may blunt the oxidative and inflammatory response that contributes to exercise-triggered bronchoconstriction.
SuggestedVitamin C, 500 to 1000 mg taken before exercise - 03Magnesium GlycinateLimited58% match
Magnesium has a bronchodilatory effect on airway smooth muscle and adequate status is associated with better airway function.
SuggestedMagnesium glycinate, 200 to 400 mg elemental daily - 04Vitamin D3Limited50% match
Vitamin D modulates airway inflammation and immune tone, and low levels are linked to poorer asthma and exercise airway control.
SuggestedVitamin D3, 1000 to 2000 IU daily with food - 05QuercetinLimited40% match
Quercetin stabilizes mast cells and has antioxidant effects that may reduce exercise-related airway reactivity.
SuggestedQuercetin, 500 mg once or twice daily - 06NACLimited36% match
N-acetylcysteine replenishes glutathione and may thin mucus and reduce oxidative stress in the airways.
SuggestedNAC, 600 mg once or twice daily
