Some studies suggest that these little fragments of misery have extreme inflammatory potential and can impair human respiratory and cardiovascular-related health.

 

Tampa, FL -- Pollen: It's on your house, on your doorstep, on your car, on your clothes, in the air, in your sinuses and in your home and workplace.
