Toxic, harmful chemicals found in popular Australian e-liquidsPerth researchers have found toxic and harmful chemicals in several dozen e-cigarette liquids readily available in Australia.
Healthy lungs help you to breathe better. This means you can sleep better, as well as play sports, run and walk without being short winded.

How ‘healthy’ do children really need to be? Going beyond the limitsThe authors assessed the impact of including preschool‐aged children with a history of preterm birth, early life wheeze, asthma diagnoses and/or recent respiratory symptoms in healthy reference ranges for respiratory impedance using the forced oscillation technique (FOT).
