Nottingham: A new study from The University of Nottingham
and King’s College London has found an association between the amount
of vitamin E in the body, exposure to particulate pollution and lung
function. The new study adds to growing evidence from
previous research suggesting that some vitamins may play a role in
helping to protect the lungs from air pollution. Although the new study
did not specifically demonstrate a protective effect, it is the first to
show a clear link between vitamin E concentrations in the blood and
exposure to fine particulate pollution in the general population.
