Research just released out of Sweden found that babies who were exposed to secondhand smoke in early infancy were twice as likely to develop allergies (maybe even more than one).

Is this a surprise? Tobacco smoke -- and especially smoke from commercial tobacco products -- is toxic and breathing it directly (including secondhand smoke) is dangerous to human health. But exposing small children to this? Let's say it together: Abhorrent.

The research demonstrated that kids with early exposure to secondhand smoke were 50 percent more likely to be allergic to certain foods. Suggestion: don't smoke where kids can breathe in those fumes and smoke.
