Air pollution and its health effects are not only worse in winters but can be damaging in summers too. Summers don't just bring heat but also photochemical oxidant pollutants like ozone, ultraviolet and sunlight.
Ozone is potent irritant and causes significant chest illness. There is significant increase in absence of school children from school and increase in deaths in lung and heart patients with rising ozone levels.
Air pollution is related with significant heart, pulmonary (lung) & neurological (brain) diseases. Recently low birth weight in new born & autism are also linked with air pollution.
Exercising in open environment in peak pollution can make you more susceptible to ill effects of air pollution.
