Why is that all recent studies are showing effects of &quot;name-it&quot; on Women only? I noticed another article which said &quot;Women who don&#x27;t exercise age faster&quot;. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;chillaxspot.com&#x2F;you-will-age-faster-if-you-dont-exercise&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;chillaxspot.com&#x2F;you-will-age-faster-if-you-dont-exerc...</a>

This kind of research worries me a bit. I live 300 feet away from a 6-lane, heavily trafficked road. I&#x27;m a male in my 30s, but still, moving somewhere further from a bunch of car exhaust seems like a good idea.<p>But maybe I can just measure the air quality — I wonder what are some accurate, but affordable particle counters. Or maybe I can rent one.

Did some maths;<p>In London, the PM 2.5 per ug&#x2F;m3 was 17.3 in October ( it was a high month )<p>According to the study, with those numbers we&#x27;re talking about a 30 cubic centimeter reduction.

I would love to see the results in other developing countries like China or India to see if these results hold up or are much worse it is in those countries.

... and also &quot;may&quot; not matter at all. Glad to see gender-focused research is going on, though.
