Can you get asthma by eating too much?

Question

I went to this restraunt and I ate a lot and I couldn't breathe that well. I struggled to breathe because I was too full. I still have a hard time breathing. Did I get asthma? Please help.

Answer 1

Maybe... See a doctor if it happens again.
When you swallow, you have to stop eating. If you were having some trouble breathing anyway, took large bits or developed reflux, as someone else suggested, your breath control could've been impaired. It took longer for you to recover and start breathing again.
The second thing is: were you eating any new foods or spices? Sometimes you could also develop an allergy to something you have always eaten.

The other answerers to this question are not aware that: yes overeating can cause you to have an attack of asthma from causing acid-reflux. The acid is inhaled into the lungs triggering off the attack of asthma. This can also cause pneumonia. Check with your doctor, and you will be told the same thing. Babies sometimes develope asthma because of having a sensitivity to milk, giving them acid-reflux that triggers off symptoms of asthma. It is very important not to overeat if you have asthma. I have it, and this also happens to me.
