Beware of bananas and peanuts


Bananas, peanuts, and almonds may trigger exercise-induced asthma (EIA), so be careful about eating them before physical activity if you have asthma or asthma symptoms. These foods along with shrimp, celery, and egg whites are the most common causes of food-related EIA. They can kick off an attack that will leave you gasping and wheezing if you eat them even two hours before exercising.
