Camfil clean air solutions provider discusses research findings that show poor air quality can negatively impact the health of those exposed to pollution.
Researchers have discovered there is a link between being exposed to auto emissions and an increased risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. A study conducted by Swedish researchers at Umeå University found that individuals who live in homes that are exposed to air pollution have a 40 percent higher risk of developing these conditions than people who live in areas with significantly cleaner air.
Researchers Find Link Between Air Quality and Alzheimer’s Disease
“As scientists learn more about the consequences of air pollution, the list of health risks have been growing. Asthma and other respiratory diseases, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases have long been the top worries, but researchers in Sweden have now added a new – and equally troubling – condition to the list: Alzheimer’s Disease.”

Using High Quality Air Filters for Better Indoor Air Quality
According to leading clean air solutions provider Camfil, hearing such news is disconcerting to individuals who live in areas where there is heavy environmental pollution particularly because they don’t feel they can do anything to protect themselves. The company says that although the problem isn’t one that can be fixed overnight, there are steps that can be taken to make sure that certain outside pollutants don’t pose such high risks to individuals while living or working indoors.
The company says of the air filtration products now available for owners or operators of commercial and residential buildings, or residents concerned about their indoor air quality, “Camfil – the world’s leading provider of commercial air filters – has developed a new generation of air filters that retain their peak efficiency longer than more traditionally designed filters, while requiring less energy. As a result, they do a better job of removing harmful particles from indoor air, while lowering lifetime costs. Leveraging its network of a half dozen global research centers, Camfil has designed air filters that last longer and require less frequent change-outs – lowering installation and disposal costs – without ever sacrificing performance.”
