Asthma currently affects up to one in five children worldwide and is increasing year on year.1
These children have overreactive immune systems that can go haywire with exertion or with exposure to viruses, pollution and dust, leading to constricted airways, wheezing and chest tightness, and reduced capacity for exercise, in addition to the stress of the disease.
What’s more, 80 percent of children diagnosed with asthma have poorly controlled symptoms, which means either they don’t have medicine or the medicine they take doesn’t work well.
