If someone told you that asthma would help you win gold at the Olympics, would you believe them? Well according to a new study, athletes with asthma are more likely to win at the Winter Games than those without these breathing problems. Claire Maldarelli, Assistant Editor at Popular Science, explains the science behind the study. The issue of asthma and inhalers has been divisive for a long time within the International Olympic Committee. Until recently many types of inhalers were banned. The rules and regulations on medications still change regularly.
