When my daughter was younger, I thought she might have respiratory issues from being born premature due to mild coughing fits almost her entire life. Tested for allergies and nothing came up.
When she was 5, we moved to a new house. When I read the recent research, I realized that this coughing declined around when we moved.
The difference? The old house had a microwave over the stove and vented inside. The new house vented outside.
Anecdotal, but the research connected the dots for me.
