It is getting hot day by day. And there is no release without AC in this situation. AC is now a perfect friend in Vapsa summer. Be it office or home, most of the day is spent in an air-conditioned room. It’s good for body comfort, but is it really good for health? Doctors say that if there is continuous AC in the room, the lungs are bound to beat. But it is impossible to live without AC in this combustion. So being careful is the sign of intelligence.

AC not only cools the room but also absorbs the natural moisture in the air. The ideal room humidity should be 40 to 60 percent. But when the AC runs, it immediately drops to 20 percent. This dry air directly affects the mucous layer inside our nose. When the lining dries out, the body loses its natural ability to ward off viruses or contamination. As a result, sneezing, coughing and allergy problems increase. This situation can be even worse for patients with sinus or respiratory problems. The same doctors often say ‘summer cold’.

Moisture recovery techniques
It is important to keep the humidity in the room even with the AC running. A ‘humidifier’ can be used for this. This device keeps the balance of water vapor inside the room. As a result, there is no fear of drying up the respiratory system. It can be especially protective for those with chronic conditions such as asthma or COPD. If the right level of oxygen is maintained in the air, the risk of infection is greatly reduced.

Cleanliness is the key
Many people run the AC for a long time but do not pay attention to its cleanliness. AC filters accumulate dust, bacteria and harmful fungi. When the device is turned on, the toxic particles spread throughout the room. So it is very important to keep the filter clean regularly. It is recommended to have the AC serviced at least once a month if there is breathing problem.

Liberation will be found in green
There is no match for indoor plants to keep the environment healthy in a natural way. Snake plant, erica palm or peace lily can be arranged in the corner of the room. These plants absorb harmful toxins from the air and help retain moisture. It will give some vitality even in the artificial cold of AC. Remember, it is possible to stay healthy even in an AC room if you are aware.
