Swimming pool use link to asthma
 |
Children who use an indoor swimming pool may be at
increased risk of developing asthma, research suggests.
The Belgian study found rates of childhood asthma and wheeze
rose by around 2-3% for every indoor swimming pool per
100,000 people.
The researchers believe the key could be exposure to
chlorine, which is used to keep pools clean. The study, by
the Catholic University of Louvain, appears in Occupational
and Environmental Medicine. The researchers say the
long-term effects of chlorine by-products on children's
respiratory health should be thoroughly evaluated, and that
pools should be properly ventilated and levels of chlorine
by-products regulated. A study published three years ago by
the same team produced evidence that chlorine in pools can
react with sweat or urine to create harmful fumes which can
damage lungs. They found found that children who regularly
attend indoor pools accumulate proteins known, in high
quantities, to cause damage to cells in the lungs. In the
latest study, they analysed the rates of wheezing, asthma,
hay fever, allergic rhinitis and atopic eczema, reported in
a study of almost 190,000 13 and 14-year-olds from 21
countries across Europe. They then compared these rates with
the number of indoor chlorinated swimming pools per 100,000
of the population in each of the countries.
Access differences
The number of indoor pools varied by a factor of 20 between
Eastern and Western Europe, ranging from one pool for every
50,000 people in Western Europe to one for every 300,000
people in Eastern Europe. The results showed that, even
after taking account of factors such as wealth, climate and
altitude, there seemed to be a strong link between asthma
and related disorders and potential access to swimming
pools. The rate of wheezing rose by 3.39% for every
additional indoor chlorinated swimming pool. Similarly, the
rate of asthma rose by 2.73%. The researchers argue that the
rise of asthma in Western Europe could at least partly be
attributed to the increasing exposure of children to the
by-products of chlorine in the air and water of indoor
swimming pools. A spokesperson for the charity Asthma UK
said: "Swimming is an excellent form of exercise for
children with asthma as the warm humid air in the swimming
pool is less likely to trigger asthma symptoms. "We do
recognise, however, that the chemicals present in heavily
chlorinated pools may be important in making the airways
more irritable and further research is needed to understand
this association."

It was
interesting and consoling reading the article of Ms. Amna
Tariq from the Holy city of Makkah Ul Mukarramah in July 1st
issue of the Newsletter. Related to same topic, I would
like to share with the community a quotation from Fathul
Ghaib by Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jillani:
“If you are destined for good fortune you will be blessed;
if afflictions have been ordained, no matter where you hide
they will seek you out. Submit therefore before the will of
God; be grateful in well-being and endure adversity with
fortitude that His light may radiate within your being.”
Best regards. M. Ashraf Khan, Riyadh

Never
Feel Helpless!
Dear
Folks,
Hope you all are “enjoying” the summers. Today, I would like
to share with you an anecdote about a donkey, the animal
that is presumably taken to be stupid.
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal
cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out
what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the
well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it
to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to
come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and
began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey
realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to
everyone's amazement he quieted down. A few shovel loads
later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was
astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit
his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would
shake it off and take a step up. As the farmer's neighbors
continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would
shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was
amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well
and happily trotted off!
What do we learn from this parable? Life is not always very
pleasant. Sometimes things are thrown our way that try to
drag us down. The way out is to shake the dirt/ the
unpleasant things thrown our way off and take a step up. By
this way, we will be turning each of our troubles into a
steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by
not stopping, never giving up.
So friends, don’t fret in times when you feel helpless. Just
give the situation an analysis from a different angel, and
voila, you can the seemingly unfavorable condition into your
favor.
Till next time, Allah Hafiz
