What harm does heavy fog often do to people's health along the coast?
Deep fog is a common weather phenomenon in early winter. Under certain weather conditions, a large number of water droplets and ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere near the ground accumulate, making the horizontal visibility less than 1,000 meters. Due to the serious air pollution near the ground, fog droplets constantly collide with pollutants and adsorb them during their drift, which will seriously damage the air quality.
Scientific research shows that, in addition to water and other microorganisms that do not have independent movement, clouds are mainly composed of Fuschia pathogens. There are three ways to cause harm to the human body:
1. After entering the human body, it hinders blood circulation, consumes human nutrients, and causes internal damage;
2. Produces mechanical pulling, damages tissues and organs, and causes fever and inflammation;
3. Restrict and hinder normal blood circulation, leading to cardiovascular disease.
It is not suitable to exercise outdoors in foggy weather
In foggy weather, you can appropriately stop some outdoor activities, especially some strenuous exercise. In such weather, the air pressure is relatively low, which can easily induce heart disease. People with heart problems should pay special attention.
In foggy weather, you should try to reduce the time you spend outdoors. It is best to wear a thin mask when going out, and wash your face and exposed skin immediately after returning from going out. At the same time, you should also pay attention to a light diet and eat less irritating foods. If you feel unwell, you can take some cold granules or lozenges as a preventive measure. Heavy foggy days can easily induce arthritis, so wear more clothes and pay attention to moisture-proofing and warmth.
Beware of "fog harming the body"
According to measurements, fog droplets contain various acids, alkalis, salts, amines, phenols, dust, pathogenic microorganisms and other harmful substances in proportions that are unexpectedly high. Dozens of times higher than normal atmospheric water droplets. Fog has great hidden harm to human health. For example, heavy fog often creates a hazy scenery, which induces people to exercise and play in the fog. As everyone knows, as the amount of activity increases, people's breathing will inevitably deepen and accelerate, and they will naturally absorb more harmful substances in the fog, which can easily induce or aggravate many diseases such as tracheitis, pharyngitis, and conjunctivitis. Traditional Chinese medicine calls it "disease air", which may be life-threatening for the elderly and infirm.
When morning exercisers exercise, due to the increased activity of muscles and bones, the heat production in the body increases. In order to maintain heat balance, they need to use perspiration to dissipate body heat. However, during heavy fog, the air pressure is high and the air humidity is high, making it difficult for sweat to evaporate, which is not conducive to the heat dissipation of the skin and hinders the gas exchange of the alveoli. This will make people feel hot and uncomfortable, causing chest tightness, suffocation, fatigue, and headache. Symptoms such as coma and insufficient oxygen supply can easily cause colds, hypertension, coronary heart disease, respiratory disease attacks and cerebral hemorrhage.
