Direct Effect on Health 

Direct impacts of breathing airborne asbestos dust particles

[Risks]  This hazardous dust has long-term direct health effects. However, they are directly linked to several forms of cancer tumors especially of the lung organs, such as asbestosis, pleural mesothelioma, as well as of the pleura. To learn more about the symptoms, an examen, and diagnostics, also, be supported by mesothelioma specialists in anticipation of planning to receive treatment, here is a useful link. [Source The Mesothelioma Center]

The harmfulness of asbestos is demonstrated for many years, but it took a long time, more than twenty years, before the change for more restrictive legislation. Its fibrous texture and chemical composition make this material a harmful product, caused by its characteristic of its airborne particles [dangerous goods classified].

[Health effects] Inhalation of airborne asbestos fibers or dust can cause serious diseases [Carcinogenic agent] such as asbestosis, which causes a decrease in breathing capacity. Leading directly to the following types of respiratory diseases, for instance, lung cancer, pleural or peritoneal cancer, laryngeal cancer, including mesothelioma. 

Important issues related to health and safety at work :

• What are the health effects?
• What other effects of asbestos on health?
• What is asbestosis, also from mesothelioma?
• What are the professions at risk of asbestos?
• What are the risks of lung cancer associated with working with asbestos?                                                                                                        [Health risks associated with toxic asbestos]

In conclusions

                                                                                                                                                                      Many studies show a direct cause and effect between the many lung cancers, mesothelioma and human exposures to toxic fine particles of asbestos. So it becomes important to solve this problem against harmful health. Especially, at this time with a new efficient [advanced technology] is now available. The detoxification of the fibers [*detoxify] is permanent and essential.
