How to reduce the influence of smog on people's health

Experts introduce three ways of breathing in haze weather, which can reduce the negative impact of haze weather on human body.

Breathing. Put your hands together on your chest, then straighten your arms forward and slowly lift them to your head. While doing the action, you can do the breathing methods of "three breaths in one breath" and "three breaths in one breath", that is, three breaths and one breath. Changing one breath into multiple breaths for exercise can improve the immune function of respiratory tract, increase vital capacity and enhance the hypoxia tolerance of human body.

Abdominal breathing. Stand, relax, put your hands under your ribs, tuck in your abdomen when inhaling, and naturally converge when exhaling. At the same time, put your hands on your abdomen and apply a little pressure to increase the intra-abdominal pressure, so that you can further raise the diaphragm and reduce the amount of residual lung when exhaling.

Close your lips and breathe. Tightening the lips when breathing, increasing airway resistance, preventing premature occlusion of small airways, making gas easy to exhale, reducing residual gas in the lungs, improving ventilation environment and enhancing vital capacity.

Fog is a normal weather phenomenon. When fog appears, the atmosphere stagnates and the movement decreases, causing environmental deterioration and endangering human health. When fog appears, people will have difficulty breathing because of excessive wet crossing, and the incidence of respiratory diseases, joint pain and low back and leg pain will increase significantly. Therefore, everyone should wear masks when going out, reduce outdoor activities and breathe skillfully.
