Do 6 Things to Counteract the Adverse Effects of Air Pollution

Dream - Lately, air pollution has become a concern for many people. In addition to its worsening levels of intensity, pollution has dangerous effects on the body's health.

Do 6 Things to Counteract the Adverse Effects of Air Pollution

Based on a study conducted by Nafas (a digital platform for monitoring air quality) and Halodoc (a digital healthcare service ecosystem), the air quality in Jabodetabek from June to August 2023 is consistently declared to worsen.

As a result, the potential for pollution causing respiratory diseases has increased by up to 34%. Not only that, cases of bronchitis and asthma have also increased fivefold within a 48-hour period.

Do 6 Things to Counteract the Adverse Effects of Air Pollution

"Kami mengimbau masyarakat untuk terus rajin menerapkan protokol kesehatan untuk mengurangi efek buruk dampak polusi udara," kata dr. Anas Ma'ruf, MKM selaku Direktur Penyehatan Lingkungan Kementerian Kesehatan RI dalam acara diskusi media kolaborasi Nafas dan Halodoc, Selasa, 26 September 2023. Sejalan dengan imbauan dr. Anas, agar tetap terhindar dari dampak-dampak di atas atau pun masalah kesehatan lainnya, berikut beberapa hal yang dapat Sahabat Dream lakukan."

1. Check air quality.

Before engaging in outdoor activities, it is important for Dream friends to first check the air quality on that day. Dream friends can check it through an application or website that provides such services.

2. Reduce outdoor activities

2. Reduce outdoor activities

When Dream Friends reduce outdoor activities, automatically your chances of being exposed to air pollution will decrease. So, as long as these activities can still be done at home, try not to go out too often, okay!

<b>3. Tutup ventilasi rumah ketika polusi sedang tinggi</b>

3. Close the house ventilation when the pollution is high.

After you know the quality of the outdoor air and the results show a high level of pollution, immediately close the ventilation in your house, yes. This will prevent contaminants in the pollution from entering the house, so the air inside your house will not be contaminated as well.

<b>4. Gunakan pembersih udara</b>

4. Use an air purifier

"To maximize efforts in keeping the air inside the house sterile, Sahabat Dream can use an air purifier indoors. Especially in closed spaces where air circulation tends to be limited as well."

5. Avoid sources of pollution

5. Avoid sources of pollution

This is the most certain way if Dream Friends want to stay protected from air pollution. Air pollution can come from motor vehicle exhaust, cigarette smoke, burning trash, and many more. Therefore, you should pay more attention to the surrounding environment, when you are doing activities outside.

6. Apply a healthy lifestyle

6. Apply a healthy lifestyle

Applying a healthy lifestyle is the most mandatory way you should do. Because, to keep the body "immune" even in a highly polluted environment cannot only be done from the outside, but also from the inside.

Therefore, by adopting a healthy lifestyle such as maintaining a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and getting enough rest, you will be protected from the dangers of pollution. Let's start living healthy. Report by Marha Adani Putri.
