The human respiratory system is highly prone to contracting and harboring diseases and illnesses largely because gas exchange provides an entry point for air born antigens. Not only is there a formidable amount of pathogens in the air one breathes, but there is also an alarming amount of pollution. One does not have to be a smoker to end up with a degenerative lung disorder, but may simply live in a busy city. The tailpipe emissions of all motor vehicles coupled with pollen, dust, mold, dander, and chemicals that are emitted into the air from manufacturing companies and similar facilities pose a difficult problem for a human's health.
