1- Put masks not only outside but also inside the house because the poisonous elements dissolved in the air enter the lungs and other parts of the body through breath and stick there. This can cause respiratory problems.

2- By breathing in polluted air, toxic substances are mixed in the blood inside the body, which can cause blood-related diseases as well as heart-related diseases.

3- Due to pollution, most dust particles accumulate in the throat. This causes throat problems. In this case, use jaggery after eating every day. In addition, liquorice can also be chewed.

4- Do not go out for morning and evening walk in pollution and exercise should also be done at home.

5- Never go on an empty stomach morning walk, eat something. Also, go for a walk in the park in the morning only when the dew is there. Dew dissipates a layer of pollution.
