Cats are drugs that prevent asthma for children

The characteristics of cats, according to rumors, are strange things in myths and in medicine. For example, it is confirmed that communicating with cats causes nerves to subside, stimulating heart activity.

And now, American scientists say, cats can give children immunity to asthma.

Cats can give children immunity to asthma.

Researchers at the University of Virginia's Center for Asthma and Allergies have watched 200 children, 50 of whom have asthma symptoms. Some children who are immune to this disease are found to be home to cats and often get involved with them. Due to that exposure, antigens appear in these bodies. Is it possible to tell if cats are 'drugs' to prevent asthma?

Of course, people have no consensus on this conclusion. Certainly, doctors do not dare to recommend the mother-to-mother level so that children should be exposed to cats from a young age, but the research results are quite strange.

The head of the research group, Professor Thomas Platts-Mills, stressed that it is common to see that children who play with cats are much more immune to asthma and other allergies. compared to those who don't raise cats. But in contrast, when cat contact is less, then in these children, immunity decreases. He said: 'If you leave your home for a long time, for example going to school for example, you will become allergic people.'

American experts believe that it is too early to put cats on the list of " antihistamines ", but it is definitely a mistake to confirm that cats are harmful animals. It is not plausible that parents who are born at birth should immediately bring their home-raised cat to another place to prevent their child from having the asthma that people often do today.

The right advice would be to leave your cat at home if you observe that the child does not exhibit cat allergies (the way people often talk when the cat is allergenic). Because in this case, the cat itself has ' protected ' the child from asthma.
