  Is the country fresh, or not? City traffic, brush fires, bad air, can affect our lungs, of course, but we're learning it can also aggravate our hearts.


The article from MSN discusses how air quality significantly impacts heart health. It explains that exposure to polluted air, particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5), can lead to cardiovascular diseases by causing inflammation, oxidative stress, and changes in heart rate variability. Poor air quality can exacerbate conditions like hypertension, increase the risk of heart attacks, and contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. The article also touches on how climate change might worsen air quality, potentially leading to more frequent and severe cardiovascular events. It suggests that reducing exposure to polluted air through measures like air purifiers, staying indoors during high pollution days, and supporting policies for cleaner air can help mitigate these risks. Additionally, lifestyle choices such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and not smoking are recommended to bolster heart health against the adverse effects of polluted air.
