Women and men both get hit, but in slightly different ways. Time to rethink that daily car commute? #Health #BodyHealth #AirPollution00Share
April Anderson+FollowAir Pollution’s Scary New Side EffectJust when you thought air pollution was only about smoggy skies and coughs, Swedish researchers found it could raise your risk of getting incurable muscle-wasting diseases like ALS by up to 30%! Even at “low” pollution levels, people living in dirtier air saw faster disease progression and higher death rates. There’s officially no safe level of air pollution—so yeah, clean air matters way more than we realized! #Health #BodyHealth #AirPollution00Share
martinezlaura+FollowMicroplastic Clouds Are a Thing Now?!Did you know the air in big cities isn’t just full of smog and dust, but actual clouds of microplastics? Scientists found up to 180,000 plastic particles per cubic meter floating over places like Guangzhou and Xi’an. These tiny plastics can get into our lungs and even carry chemicals and germs. Rain helps wash them down, but traffic keeps pumping more into the air. Kinda makes you wonder what we’re all breathing in every day! Would you trust your city’s air? #Science #microplastics #airpollution00Share
Tamara Jones+FollowAir Pollution’s Sneaky Link to FrailtyWild new study alert: air pollution isn’t just bad for your lungs—it might actually make you frail as you age!

Frailty isn’t a done deal—you can fight back by ditching smoke, upgrading your stove, or even just using an air purifier. Who knew clean air could be the ultimate anti-aging hack? #Science #AirPollution #HealthNews00Share
