Improving air pollution in your home
Improving air pollution in your home
According to a 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) report, only 8 percent of people worldwide are breathing air that meets WHO standards, which means 92 percent of the world population is breathing polluted air. While you might not have control over the pollution levels outside your home, you do have control over what you eat.
Overall, you should strive to eat a diet of whole foods, rich in anti-inflammatory vegetables and healthy fats. Among the most important dietary interventions to try include
- Omega-3 fats
- Broccoli sprouts
- Vitamins C and E
- B vitamins
Adding house plants also helps to absorb indoor air pollution.
