Sponsor's own description
The overall aim of this study is to determine if face masks that can warm and humidify air can improve overall asthma control and markers of airway health during exercise in cold dry environments. We will investigate the potential protective benefits of the face masks against exercise induced asthma during 1) a "one-off" bout of exercise in a cold dry environment and 2) over the course of a four week period, exercising three times per week in a cold dry environment.
