In light of the recent haze situation, it is ever more important to protect your lungs from the toxins and particles present in the air. Here are some tips to counter the haze today:
1) Wear Masks When Going Outside
This should be a no-brainer for some of you but many people still go out into the hazy environment without masks. The masks filters most of the pollutants entering our respiratory system in both the nose and mouth.
2) Boost Your Immune System
Your immune system blocks and protects your body from foreign entities, including the toxic chemicals present in your lung. Having a balanced, healthy diet with exercise would boost your immune system significantly.
To get you started on a better diet, here is a homemade juice recipe to boost your immune system today:
Carrot Mixed Juice:
Carrot 1/2 Honey Adequately
Pineapple 1/2 Cold Water 1/4 cup
Apple 1/2 Ice cubes 1/2 cup
Lemon 1/2
Method:
1. Rinse and peel the carrot, apple, lemon and then cut them into pieces.
2. Remove the skin and eyes of the pineapple and cut into smaller cubes.
3. Place the fruits, honey, ice cubes and water into the blender.
4. Serve immediately.
3) Reduce Stress
As mentioned before, the immune system is important in protecting your body in this hazy environment. Stress is one of the factors that could weaken immune system due to the extra energy spent to sustain the body from falling apart. Reducing stress can give your immune system a better chance in the haze.
4) Stay Indoors As Much As You Can
If the haze becomes too serious, it would be better to stay indoors rather than risking your body being bombarded by the many chemicals and disease spreading in the air. Keep an eye on the API (Air Pollution Index) website: http://apims.doe.gov.my/apims/hourly1.php for the level of pollution and keep your body safe and clean.
