A new study is out about people who live in high traffic areas. The study suggests that people who live in these areas are more susceptible to Asthma as well as Dementia.

If you live in an urban, high traffic area it is important to pay attention to air quality. Poor air quality can not only affect your asthma conditions but now may affect your risk for dementia.
