People who have asthma and COPD are more vulnerable to particulate air pollution if they have low levels of vitamin C in their blood, a study from London found.


Good study, except for the non sequitur: "The results suggest a diet rich in fruits and vegetables may suppress some of the harmful effects of air pollution."
