[CTRL] Fwd: The Price of Progress
Smog May Induce Heart Attacks LOS ANGELES (AP) - Smog apparently doesn't hurt just your lungs: New scientific research suggests that even moderate smog may induce sudden death in people with existing heart problems. The newfound evidence, culled from more than a dozen studies on humans and animals, shows that tiny pieces of soot called particulates may alter the heart rate in some people, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday. The link has not yet been proven, but there is a strong likelihood that the particles cause the heart problems, possibly indicating air pollution poses a greater public health threat than previously thought, the newspaper said. Heart disease is the top killer in the United States, responsible for about half of all deaths. At smog levels found in many U.S. cities, the inhalation of particulates can disrupt a person's ability to regulate the pumping of blood. The threat is particularly severe for older people who have arrhythmia, a condition marked by an irregular heartbeat. ``When particulate pollution increases, the heart rate seems to go up a little bit and the variability in the heart rate seems to go down. Those are things classically seen (in people) with heart failure,'' said Dr. Timothy Denton, a cardiologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. ``Studies suggest that people are dying relatively rapidly after you see an increase in particles. Sometimes it's within 24 hours,'' said Robert Devlin of the Environmental Protection Agency's clinical research branch. Changes in heart rhythm that occur after breathing particulates are subtle on an electrocardiogram and do not affect healthy people. Arden Pope, an epidemiologist at Brigham Young University, said ``it's incredibly good news'' if the link can be proven. ``We already know that about half of us die of cardiopulmonary disease, and if this is true about particulates, we have found a preventable cause,'' Pope said.

Before 1910, heart and artery disease wasn't even a major cause of death. Obviously something changed. Something in the environment or some change in diet or nutrition changed. What was it? It wasn't because suddenly cities started having "smog". In industrial cities there was a lot of factory smoke and particulates, but not "smog" as it is constituted today with a lot of car exhaust fumes. What was it? At the time of World War I, major chemical companies started producing large amounts of chlorine. Chlorine is a highly poisonous gas. It was used as a weapon in the war. Starting about the time the war ended, U.S. cities started using chlorine to kill bacteria in public water supplies. It worked. Chlorine does kill germs. But it also does something else. Chlorine acts in combination with saturated fats to produce a hard coating on the inside of arteries and blood vessels. This coating is called "plaque". This causes "hardening of the arteries". It's also called "Cardiopulmonary disease" and/or atherosclerosis. And now you know.the rest of the story.
