Cleaning Products Link To Asthma

A new British study has linked common household cleaning chemicals to childhood Asthma.

Researchers found children born into households that made significant use of chemicals like bleach and disinfectants were twice as likely to suffer persistent wheezing.

Scientists aren’t saying the chemicals actually cause Asthma, but there was a strong link and more study was needed.
