Citando:
"A new European study has found women who work as cleaners or who regularly clean the family home using cleaning sprays or other products, experience a greater decline in lung function over time than women who do not clean.

The researchers, from the University of Bergen in Norway, say the accelerated lung function decline is comparable to smoking 20 cigarettes a day over 10 to 20 years.

Study

The University of Bergen researchers analysed data from 6,235 participants in the European Community Respiratory Health Survey, of which 53% were women.

They were followed for more than 20 years."

""It is deeply concerning that this study shows cleaning products can cause long-term lung damage for people with asthma.

(...)

"This could include using solid or liquid cleaning products instead of sprays, avoiding scented products and ensuring the area where they clean is well-ventilated."

"Women who take paracetamol or ibuprofen just twice a week could be damaging their hearing permanently," the Daily Mail reports.
A US study found an association between the long-term use of these widely used painkillers and reported hearing loss.
Researchers calculated just over 1 in 20 (5.5%) hearing loss cases in their study could have been the result of painkiller use.
But they say it's not possible for this study to prove the drugs caused the hearing problems.
Previous studies have linked aspirin, paracetamol, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) types of painkiller, such as ibuprofen, with hearing loss."

"Gregor McNie, Cancer Research UK’s senior public affairs manager in Scotland, said this reflected trends in the popularity of smoking. He said: “Male smoking peaked in the 1970s and started declining at that point. For women it was more in the 1980s.




“Also tobacco marketing focused more on women in the 1980s, targeting housewives.
“The lung cancer rates are a decade behind for women.”
If the figures are adjusted for age, incidence of cancer in general dropped by 3% for men but increased by 6% for women over the decade to 2014. "
