HEALTH EFFECTS OF  FIREWOOD SMOKE

Firewood smoke in the urban environment is clandestinely a major source of aggravation and ill health for many people, especially those with allergy or chemical sensitivity. The toxicity of wood smoke is well known, as mentioned in the last publication) contains many carcinogenic substances such as aldehydes, dioxin, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), carbon monoxide and ultrafine particulate matter i.e. particles that are less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5). The problem with these ultrafine particles is that when they are less than 2.5 microns in diameter they are retained in the human lungs and have been shown to cause increases in morbidity and mortality. 
In developing countries, firewood smoke has had a serious effect on human health as most fire wood usage (either in cooking or other uses) emit smoke to indoor air.

Scientific studies have shown that such emissions of firewood smoke indoors,  cause exposures that reduces lung function, especially in children, and in fact was responsible for a large proportion of obstructive airway disease. 
Studies have shown, In Mexico City, where there is also a huge motor exhaust pollution problem, women exposed to firewood smoke were shown to have a higher risk of contracting chronic bronchitis and obstructive airway disease than those who were not exposed to firewood smoke. In Africa, cooking with firewood greatly increased the risk of stillbirth, while indoor air in homes with fire wood smoke was found to have higher levels of mutagenic material.

In developed countries studies have also found significant health effects in people who use woodstoves. In the USA, children living in homes with wood stoves tended to have higher levels of respiratory symptoms, increased incidence and severity of wheeze, more coughing and a decline in lung function.

Forest firefighters in the USA had decreased lung function after fighting fires and the use of firewood for cooking and other domestic uses by these firefighters also affected their lung function. Eight out of twelve homes were also shown to have an increase in indoor mutagenicity. 
In New York, for example, woodstoves were associated with middle ear problems while other studies in the USA also showed illnesses attributable to fumes from firewood cooking.

In areas where airtight woodstoves are used and these are vented outside, neighbours downwind of the woodstoves probably have a high level of exposure than those indoors at the source of the smoke. In the USA, whole neighbourhoods have been found to suffer, while in some counties, a higher incidence of asthma admission to hospitals were reported - particularly on days of high woodsmoke pollution.

In Sydney, another independent study by the NSW EPA found that most of the particulate pollution in winter came from 13% of households using wood heaters. Studies also showed that death rates are generally higher in winter on days of high pollution, or days following high particle pollution.

‘Woodsmoke is estimated to be 12 times more carcinogenic than an equal concentration of cigarette smoke'.....

In a laboratory study, mice were subjected to either Firewood smoke, oil furnace fumes or clean air for 6 hours. They were then challenged with a streptococcus bacterium and within two weeks, 21% of the mice exposed to woodsmoke were dead compared with the 5% of the mice exposed to the oil furnace fumes or clean air.

Autopsies then showed that particles less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM 2.5) are retained in human lungs. 
Larger particles are not retained.

The following can be caused by firewood smoke:

1.)  Obstructive airway disease
2.)  Reduced lung function
3.)  Asthma, 
4.)  wheezing, 
5.)  Cough
6.)  Higher incidence of bacterial infections
7.)  Cataract
8.)  Eye lens opacification
9.)  Bronchiolitis
10.) Otitis media (ear inflammation)
11.)  Methemoglobinaemia (reduced oxygen in blood)
12.) Cancer sore throat 
13.) Migraine
14.) neumonitisfibrosis of the lungs 

15.) Unnecessary /avoidable deaths, Etc.

FIREWOOD SMOKE AND YOUR HEALTH .....to be Cont'd

Even though people have burned 🔥 wood (fire wood) for ages, scientific studies have shown that firewood smoke can impact your health and also the health of your family including others around you. 

Fire wood contains wood tars, gases, and soot, as well as chemicals like carbon monoxide, dioxins, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and fine particles. Many of these are the same toxic substances that are found in tobacco smoke, and it is believed that wood smoke has many of the same health consequences as tobacco smoke and even more.

We must state categorically that people who frequently breathe firewood smoke are at risk for serious adverse health effects. One major source of health problems is the fine particles in wood smoke.

Short-term exposure (hours or days) to fine particles in the air can aggravate lung disease, trigger asthma attacks, acute bronchitis, and may also increase susceptibility to respiratory infections. In people with heart disease, short-term exposures have been linked to heart attacks and arrhythmias. 
Over time, breathing fine particles in the air increases the chances of developing chronic obstructive lung disease, chronic bronchitis, cardiovascular disease, or lung cancer.

Scientists have studied health patterns among people who use firewood in their homes; people who have been exposed to smoke from wildfires; and especially those people who live in developing countries where wood is burned for heat and cooking. There is clear evidence from scientific researches that exposure to wood smoke can irritate the eyes, nose, throat and worsen asthma and other respiratory symptoms. Exposure to firewood smoke may also be harmful to respiratory immune responses thereby leaving people more susceptible to infectious lung disease. 
In high concentrations, firewood smoke can permanently damage lung tissue.

Exposure to higher concentration of firewood smoke
increases the likelihood of adverse health effects. But even at low levels, the substances in firewood smoke can be harmful, so when burning wood, it is not only your family and those near the fire who may be exposed, but also neighbors in the surrounding area, some of whom may have underlying health problems. 
FireWood smoke particles are so tiny that they remain suspended for long periods of time and readily penetrate into buildings with incoming cold air. Young children, the elderly, and people with asthma, lung, or heart diseases are especially vulnerable to firewood smoke in the air.

Stagnant air conditions  and temperature inversions result in wood smoke hanging close to the ground, where it can enter neighbors’ houses through tiny cracks, open windows and vents. firewood smoke often settles into low-lying areas, and can become trapped and build up to unusually high concentrations.

If you choose to burn wood, take the time to understand best practices for wood burning from relevant professionals. 
Always be ready to help your environment /community make a change toward less firewood burning?
