Welcome to the first video podcast episode of Ask The Personal Trainer. Every friday I answer one listener question. This week I had a question from a lovely Mum with her 3 year old boy.

This Weeks Question

My 3 year old has today been diagnosed with asthma – at this stage it is only triggered when he has a cold. Last winter he had colds left, right and Centre. At times there was only two weeks from the start of one to the start of the next and on occasion he had some breathing issues.

We have had a break since early November, however now with the cooler evenings and mornings now just beginning my son got his first cold for the year on friday triggering what we now know were asthma episodes.

I am thinking perhaps some sort of supplements may give his immunity a boost but would prefer something that wasn’t loaded with rubbish and not hugely expensive.

Is there anything you can suggest, or any specific foods that may help/ or hinder in this situation. Do I remember correctly about a link between dairy and asthma?

Ideally he would be eating clean, and lots of leafy greens etc however he is very much a work in progress on that score lol.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions and for all that you do.

In this episode I discuss the really common question I get asked all the time. Should I eat breakfast? With all the diets out there today recommending different fasting options and what ever else, it can be really confusing as to know what is right for you. So today I try and clear that up and help make that choice easy.

Today I answer a really common question I get ” How many nuts is to much?”

Often when people go gluten free or start on a clean eating path, they end up switching alot of their old habits for new ones that may include nuts in them. This can then mean they end up eating alot of nuts each and every day.

Find out what my suggestions are when it comes to nuts and how to balance it all out and find out whats right for you.
