American scientists from the Institute of Biomedical Research (Los Angeles) found out:: bad habits of grandmothers can influence the development of asthmatic diseases in grandchildren. So, pregnant rodents that received nicotine gave birth to offspring affected by asthma.. Asthmatic rats, in turn, also gave birth to offspring with asthma, despite the fact that they were not directly exposed to nicotine.. Apparently, nicotine can influence the genome, which makes the future generation much more susceptible to respiratory diseases, including asthma..

Therefore, the cause of asthma in grandchildren may be hidden in genetic changes that were caused by external factors, such as smoking.. As a result, the researchers concluded that the factors affecting pregnant women affect not only their children, but also their grandchildren, according to the online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net These results support previous findings that point to a relationship between grandmother and grandchild health.. Researchers from the University of Southern California have found that grandmother's smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of developing asthma in grandchildren, regardless of whether the child's mother has this bad habit, EuroSMI reports..

In the meantime, another remedy for those who are trying to quit nicotine will appear on the market.. This is a smoking vaccine that will be produced in Russia. How a new drug could help smokers forget cigarettes?
