Smog is generated by vehicle emissions, industrial pollution particulates, sulfur dioxide and other airborne contaminants
that react to sunlight. In addition to particles, smog includes ground-level ozone, volatile organic compounds and other pollutants.
Because smog travels with the wind, it can affect areas far beyond the urban centers and freeways where it typically originates.
The link between smog and respiratory conditions such as emphysema, bronchitis asthma and other illnesses is well known
and documented. But new research has continued to identify the potentially deadly link between smog and heart attacks.
For example, the Journal of the American College of Cardiology recently reported on the effect of smog in triggering
atrial fibrillation (also known as “AFib”).
