Asbestos
Asbestos is made up of microscopic fibers, which are separated from a group of naturally occurring silicate minerals. Asbestos fibers are strong, durable, and resistant to heat. Because of these qualities, asbestos has been used in thousands of consumer, industrial, maritime, automotive, scientific and building products.
Asbestos fibers can easily flake off and are small enough to be completely inhaled deep into the lungs. Once inhaled into the lung, the lung's defense cells try to destroy the asbestos fibers, but the body's defense mechanisms cannot break down asbestos. The result can be scarring and inflammation that continues for decades. Asbestos can also result in Mesothelioma.
This thickening and scarring prevents oxygen and carbon dioxide from traveling between the tiny air sacs of the lungs and into the blood stream, so breathing becomes much less efficient. In people who develop Asbestosis, the inflammatory process (once started) continues to progress, fueled by the indestructible asbestos fibers even after the exposure to asbestos has ceased.
