Children with asthma should not be allowed the potential to linger in front of the television. A study found that children who watch television more than two hours a day at higher risk of asthma attacks. Researchers believe that these findings are more related to lifestyle, which linger in front of the screen, rather than the television device. More than 3,000 British children from ages newborn to 11 years following the research published in the journal Thorax. The parents were questioned about symptoms of breath sound (wheezing) and diagnosis of asthma. As well, the boy in the habit of watching television. All children are free from symptoms of wheezing in infancy. However, some of them, about six per cent, began experiencing signs of asthma at the age of 11 years. Especially those who watch television more than 2 hours a day. The figure reached 44 percent. "We think the problem is inactivity. May move out of the room at a young age effect protects the lungs." said James Paton of the University of Glasgow, a member of the research team.
