Dr. Alexandra Farrow and her colleagues from the University of Brunel (Brunel University) came to the conclusion that air fresheners and aerosols can adversely affect the health of babies and their mothers, according to an online edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 Years old Pannochka. Net It was found that the frequent use of these drugs during pregnancy and infancy is associated with diarrhea and earache in children and headaches with depression in mothers.

All the blame - emitted by fresheners and aerosols volatile organic compounds (Volatile organic compounds (VOCs). British researchers have observed the development and health of 14,000 children before and after their birth. In parallel, they measured the levels of VOCs in the homes of 170 children and interviewed 10,000 mothers about the use of fresheners and aerosols. In homes where air fresheners were used every day, infants suffering from diarrhea were 32% more. These same children often experienced pain in the ear. Mothers living in "aerosol" homes were 10% more likely to have headaches and about 26% more likely to experience depression. This is also because mothers with children spend about 80% of the time at home.
