Asthma is most commonly seen in children but it’s also one of the most common adult diseases in the world today. It’s generally something which people will suffer with for their whole lives, in doing so they learn to adapt to the condition and plan their lives around it. This planning is necessary with pretty much all chronic conditions, though not doing so has a much more profound impact in an asthmatic than a diabetic that being death.
Though most people have it from an early age, it’s more than possible to contract asthma later in life. In a recent study carried out in Gothenburg, Sweden it’s become apparent that despite warnings people are still contracting asthma from chemicals. It’s long been understood that certain types of cleaning fluids and chemicals can cause asthma when people are exposed to them for long enough. Warnings have been on bottles for years and years but according to this study this has done very little to actually stop people from inhaling enough of these chemicals to cause them permanent respiratory damage in the form of asthma!
The moral of the story is, if a bottle of something says to open a window when using it then open a window when using it. Those warnings are put in place for a reason and there’s nothing worse than being the direct cause of your own disease! Take the extra precaution and preserve your health and wellbeing for years to come!
