Karate training and allergic diseases
The aim of this study was to establish the prevalence of subjects with allergic disorders (rhinitis, asthma and eczema) among 314 karate trainees and to evaluate the impact of these health disorders on their performance. Data about allergic nasal, asthmatic and skin symptoms, asthmatic symptoms during exercise, therapy and the diagnoses of allergic diseases were recorded and analyzed. Data about achievements on championships were collected in asthmatic patients. We found that 24.5% of subjects reported presence of allergic rhinitis, asthma and/or eczema. Allergic rhinitis were reported in 13.4%, , asthma in 7.6% and eczema in 6.7% of karate trainees. Six asthmatics won medals on national championships in disciplines kata and kumite, and one asthmatic on international kata championships. Results suggest karate as suitable sport for the conditioning of persons with allergic diseases. Kata discipline can be suggested as suitable for the performance of asthmatics on top intenational level.
