Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air. Car emissions, chemicals from factories, dust, pollen and mold spores may be suspended as particles. Ozone, a gas, is a major part of air pollution in cities. When ozone forms air pollution, it's also called smog
Clean breathing matters to health. Increasing public awareness of air pollution and the burden of disease that it imposes on individuals, families and society is an essential step toward making the changes that will improve public health.
Patients need to be informed about the adverse impacts of air pollution on their respiratory health and how they can protect against and minimise exposure to air pollution. Avoidance of the source of air pollution is commonly reported as the best strategy to help minimise respiratory symptoms related to air pollution.
However, avoidance of exposure to both indoor and outdoor pollutants is challenging in most geographical regions. Along with behavioural changes, protective measures such as nasal filters, masks and dietary supplementation, may help to reduce the effects of air pollution and manage the associated symptoms.
Here, The Clean Breathing Institute discusses strategies to minimise the adverse impacts of air pollution on respiratory health.
