Check this out.
According to a Belgian study, children ages 10 to 13 who'd taken part in an infant swim program in chlorinated indoor pools were significantly more likely than their peers to be diagnosed with asthma. The researchers point to the chlorine as the culprit.
I read this in an article in Allergies & Asthma Health Monitor.
I know a lot of parents are taking baby swim classes around here. And I'm thinking of signing Jack up in the fall. So this caught my attention.
Anyone know anything more?
