Also, back then, people were much more physically active than they are
now. They didn't have all the tools that make the sedentary lifestyle
possible. In 1910, most people still raised their own vegetables at
least, and many people still raised ALL their own food. The opportunity
to sit one one's butt all day in front of the TV (or computer  I
struggle with this one) just wasn't there.

[CTRL] Fwd: The Price of Progress

2000-06-05 Thread Kris Millegan





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.

Cardiopulmonary disease is the number one killer in the U.S.
but it wasn't always so.
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.
