India’s ‘Airpocalypse’: Toxic Smog Linked To Increased Cancer, Heart Attack Risk

This special report from Health360 investigates the severe, multi-organ health crisis triggered by air pollution in India’s cities. ‘Living in Delhi is equivalent to smoking 30 cigarettes a day and what happens when you actually smoke 30 cigarettes a day? Cancer,’ an expert warns in the program. The report features doctors who break down the alarming and often invisible damage caused by pollutants, detailing the links between toxic air and a rise in cancer among the young, severe cardiac ailments, and a surge in eye-related problems like dry eye disease. Experts explain how fine particulate matter, or PM2.5, penetrates the bloodstream, leading to inflammation, DNA damage, and blockages in arteries. The report highlights vulnerable populations and outlines crucial preventive measures to mitigate the devastating long-term health consequences of breathing India’s polluted air.
