Study: Car smoke increases risk of heart attacks, but not for smokers
Vehicle fumes

According to a study, smoke and gases caused by vehicles, but also by hard braking, significantly increase the risk of heart attacks.

The study involved 18,000 people and found that high daily levels of nitric oxide increase the risk of heart attacks.

Nitric oxide is caused by combustion at high temperatures, especially in diesel engines. It is also caused by hard braking and burning vehicle tires.

Experts also discovered an interesting fact in this study, that smokers were unaffected by smog, probably because they inhale toxic smoke.

"These findings are yet more evidence that polluted air is associated with an increased risk of heart attacks in non-smokers," said British researcher Sir Nilesh Samani.

The author of the study, Insa de Buhr-Stockburger, said that "the link between air pollution and heart attacks in our study was absent in smokers".

According to her, smokers seem less affected by external pollutants, such as smog caused by smoke and car exhaust, which also increase the risk of heart attacks.

According to the author, air pollution risks acute myocardial infarction.
