How to deal with smog weather actively and effectively
How to protect yourself in heavily polluted weather?
Countermeasure 1: Go out less. Reducing going out is the most effective way to protect yourself. If you must go out, don't ride a bike, avoid the rush hours of traffic jams and roads with many cars, avoid inhaling more chemicals, and take more public transportation.
Countermeasure two, smoke less. Cigars, cigars and pipes will produce a large number of fine particles belonging to the category of PM2.5 if they are not completely burned. Tobacco smoke contains more than 7000 compounds, including 69 carcinogens and 172 harmful substances, which will seriously harm the health of smokers themselves and those who inhale "second-hand smoke". Smokers should smoke as little as possible whether they go out or stay indoors.
Countermeasure three, open the window less. Try not to open the window. If you really need to open the window for ventilation, you should try to avoid the morning and evening smog peak hours, and open the window for ventilation for half an hour to one hour at a time. At the same time, residents who use air conditioning for heating should pay attention to opening windows to ensure adequate indoor oxygen. You can use a variety of green crown plants such as green radish, evergreen and tiger orchid on your balcony, terrace and indoors, and you can also use an air purifier.
Countermeasure 4, choose the right mask. Ordinary masks have little effect on 2.5 micron airborne particles. To block PM2.5, a medical N95 mask is needed, which can block 95% of 0.3 micron particles and also play a certain role in PM2.5 weather off the charts.
Countermeasure five, do a good job of personal hygiene. Wash your face, rinse your mouth and clean your nasal cavity in time when you enter the room, and remove the pollution residue attached to your body. It is best to use warm water when washing your face. When cleaning the nasal cavity, you can repeatedly clean it with a clean cotton swab, or gently absorb water with your nose and blow your nose quickly.
Countermeasure six, light diet. Eat less irritating food, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and supplement various vitamins and inorganic salts. You can also eat more tofu, milk and other foods. Self-made throat moistening tea is also a good choice, which can solve the problems of dry throat and cough, and reduce the harm of air pollution to the lungs.
