Unhealthy lifestyle factors such as poor diet quality, sedentary lifestyle, and obesity are associated with negative health consequences in asthma including poor asthma control, impaired quality of life, and greater health care utilization. Lifestyle modification is the cornerstone of behavioral treatments and has been effective in chronic diseases such as atherothrombotic vascular disease and diabetes. There is a critical need for lifestyle interventions in asthma care that address obesity and its intimately linked risk behaviors in terms of poor diet and physical inactivity. We present in this commentary the promising lifestyle interventions emerging in asthma care that target poor diet, physical inactivity and weight loss, the proposed mechanisms of these lifestyle interventions, and the critical need for guideline-concordant lifestyle interventions in asthma care.
