The current air quality in Delhi is equivalent to smoking 20 cigarettes a day. The situation has become so bad that schools, colleges have shut down and many offices have started working from home. People are having respiratory problems, itchy eyes and many health problems because of the poor air quality. Air pollution is a problem that many cities and countries are facing. This deteriorating air quality poses serious health risks to everyone. Here are a few tips you can follow to protect yourself and your family from air pollution.

Morning walks and doing exercise in the morning is one of the best ways to stay fit and healthy as one gets to breathe fresh air. However, with the air quality in Delhi and NCR hitting the “Severe & Emergency” level, it will only harm the body as your lungs and can cause a great deal of damage to your immunity. Do exercise at home and avoid going outside unless it is for important work.

Always remember to put on a mask before stepping out. Choosing the right mask that can filter all the dust particles from the air you breathe in is very important.

Plants are known as nature’s own air purifiers. Indoor plants can help you in keeping your house clear of air pollution. Indoor plants such as Aloe Vera, Bamboo Palm, Warneck Dracaena, Spider plants, among others are best in keeping air purified with the house.

A good diet can protect you from the ill-effects of extreme air pollution by improving your immunity. Eat vegetables & fresh fruits so you stay healthy.

Drinking eight to ten glasses of water in a day will be very helpful in fighting pollution.

Prefer closed mode of transport over traveling in open vehicles such as two-wheelers and auto-rickshaws. You can opt for the metro, buses, and cars or adopt carpooling.

Investing in an air purifier is a must if you have children, elderly, pregnant women or asthma patients in your house. It is a better investment than a visit to the doctor.

The pollution level in Delhi varies depending on the traffic patterns and the neighborhood. But in general, the pollution level is at its highest when the temperature is low, i.e. at night. SO avoid going out at night.
