Allergy is a genetic disease, which may last for life. When the allergens or * * * substances contacted in daily life gradually accumulate in the body to a certain extent until the body can no longer stand it, it may break out in the last cold, virus infection, or contact with allergens and * * * substances.
How to effectively remove five major environmental pollution sources?
Xu Shida, honorary chairman of Taiwan Province Asthma Health Education Association and senior attending physician in the Department of Pediatric Allergy and Immunorheumatology of Ma Kai Children's Hospital, pointed out that clinical observation found that there are five kinds of common environmental pollution sources in our daily life, including allergens and * * * substances, namely smoking or second-hand smoke, exhaust gas from automobiles and motorcycles, harmful gases, dust mites, molds and pet dander, which are not only harmful to healthy people, but also cause allergies. How to eliminate these five major environmental pollution sources? Put forward the following solutions respectively.
PM2.5, harmful gas
According to research statistics, the air pollution from outdoor to indoor is as high as 28%. Common harmful gases at home include: tail gas from automobiles and locomotives, lampblack, gas burning, incense ashes, smoking or second-hand tobacco, pesticides, detergents, essences, paints, formaldehyde, incense and beauty products. , fine suspended particles that may contain PM2.5, especially those who live on the main roads with frequent traffic, are more vulnerable to harmful gases and PM 2.5. ..
▓ Solution:
1. Use the air filter.
2. When cooking, use a range hood.
3. Avoid smoking, burning incense and incense.
dust
Dust contains a large number of bacteria, molds, viruses and dust mite allergens. According to domestic investigation, 75% of households have an average of 2000 dust mites and 795767 fungal colonies (cfu) per gram of dust. It is recommended to clean the house as often as possible, keep it clean and tidy, avoid the accumulation of sundries, and reduce the chances of hiding and accommodating evil spirits.
▓ Solution:
1. Use the air filter.
Use a vacuum cleaner.
▓ Cleaning skills:
When cleaning, the sweeper should wear masks, gloves, goggles, long-sleeved clothes and trousers, and can also use protective clothing or apron. The principle of cleaning, as far as possible from high to low, starting from a relatively clean area, such as the bedroom, and then gradually cleaning to other areas according to the degree of pollution; The cleaning method should be "dry first and then wet". It is recommended to clean with a vacuum cleaner and dusting paper first, and then wipe with a wet cloth. Remember to take a thorough bath and change clothes after cleaning to avoid pollution caused by dust on clothes.
Dust mites in pollution source 3
Dust mite is an arachnid with eight feet. It feeds on cats, dogs and other human beings or domestic pets, shedding dander and hair, and likes to live in a warm and humid environment. It is most easily distributed on carpets at home, followed by quilts, sheets, sheets, spring mattresses, straw mats, pillows, floors and sofas.
▓ Solution:
1. Use the air filter.
Use a vacuum cleaner.
3. Use air conditioner and dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity below 60%.
4. Use anti-mite bedding and anti-mite covers.
5. Avoid keeping cats, dogs and pets.
▓ Anti-mite tips for bedding:
1. Before use, put the mattress, quilt and pillowcase into the anti-mite cover and zip it up.
2. Wash the quilt cover with hot water above 55℃ every week, including blankets, bed sheets, bed sheets, pillow towels, etc., or put it in the dryer 10 minute, and then wash it with clean water, which can completely kill dust mites and remove allergens.
mould
Where the humidity is too high and humid, it is easy to breed mold. The common small black spots on walls, corners, kitchens, shower curtains, window sills and other places at home are mold, which is also one of the accomplices causing allergies. Inhalation of mold may cause allergic reaction. If there is wall cancer and water leakage at home, it should be repaired quickly; It is best to throw away moldy food immediately, wrap it in plastic bags and then throw it away to avoid the spread of mold spores.
▓ Solution:
1. Use air conditioner and dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity below 50%.
2. Use 500ppm bleach to scrub the place with mold.
3. Clean up the kitchen garbage.
4. Discard moldy food.
Pet dander
Although many studies have shown that keeping pets in pregnant women can reduce the incidence of allergic diseases in infants, people who are allergic to pets should avoid contact, especially pet dander, which is one of the food sources of dust mites and is more likely to make dust mites multiply in large numbers. If you can't put your pet out for adoption, it is recommended to bathe your pet once a week and avoid using carpets and curtains at home.
▓ Solution:
1. Use the air filter.
Use a vacuum cleaner.
3. Use anti-mite bedding and anti-mite covers.
How to use air purifier, dehumidifier and vacuum cleaner correctly?
air-filter
It is suggested to choose high efficiency particulate air filter; HEPA) system has limited functions such as air purifier, photocatalyst and ozone. HEPA filter screen is made of high elastic fiber, which can purify 0.3μm particles in the air, and the filtration rate can reach 99.97%, effectively removing PM2.5 and harmful gases. The filter should be cleaned and replaced regularly to avoid the effect being greatly reduced.
dryer
The function of dehumidifier is to reduce the humidity in the air. If the humidity is set below 60%, dust mites will not survive. In order to prevent the growth of mold, the humidity setting should be reduced to below 50%, and the filter screen should be cleaned or replaced regularly to avoid dust adhesion, which will make the air intake insufficient, thus affecting the dehumidification ability.
vacuum cleaner
It is suggested to choose a double-layer dust bag and a vacuum cleaner with HEPA system, which can prevent allergens from evaporating in the process of dust collection and effectively remove dust and dust mites. Remember to add warm water and detergent after use, and thoroughly clean the dust collection grid, dust collection bag and filter screen. After cleaning, it should be placed in a cool place to wait for air drying, so as not to be damp and breed mold.
5 strokes to create a non-toxic living environment
Xu Shida believes that a non-toxic home environment focuses on maintaining sufficient sunshine, air circulation and reducing indoor humidity. In addition, the simpler the layout at home, the better it will be for human health. Try to avoid excessive decoration, such as carpets, curtains, paints, etc. The less interior decoration, the better. It is suggested to choose natural and nontoxic paints and building materials, or use boards with low formaldehyde content. Formaldehyde is the most common harmful substance in decorative building materials, which is identified as a first-class carcinogen by the World Health Organization (WHO), affecting indoor air quality.
1 move: replace the fabric sofa with wooden, leather or plastic furniture.
The second trick: take off the heavy curtain cloth. If you have to use it, you should clean it often, or spray acaricide regularly. It is best to use blinds and plastic blinds instead.
The third measure: avoid using carpets, chair cushions, or spraying acaricide regularly.
The fourth measure: avoid placing banners, hanging silks and satins, and articles that are easy to accumulate dust.
The fifth measure: wooden beds replace spring mattresses and sponge mats, and straw mats and tatami are not allowed.
Exercise enhances immunity. Did you do the right thing?
The immune system is like an "army" in the human body, fighting all kinds of germs and maintaining health. Xu Shida emphasized that a normal life routine is the best way to enhance immunity. It is recommended not to stay up late and exercise regularly.
According to research, moderate exercise can prevent inflammation, promote cell activation and achieve the effect of enhancing immunity. The frequency of exercise, at least 3 days a week, 30 minutes a day is enough. However, don't exercise excessively and continue to consume physical strength, which will lead to decreased immunity.
Regarding the choice of sports, Xu Shida pointed out that it is a good choice to adopt the principle of "short, explosive and ready to rest", such as walking, cycling, swimming, fitness, and ball games such as basketball, rugby and golf.
Eight ways to stay away from skin allergy
Autumn seasons alternate, the weather turns from hot to cold, and the skin is particularly prone to dryness and water shortage, especially in patients with dry and allergic skin diseases, which may often occur. Zhao Zhaoming, the chairman of China Beauty and Health Education Association and a dermatologist, put forward eight skin care suggestions to help you get rid of annoying atopic dermatitis and urticaria easily.
eat
Eat a light diet and avoid heavy food, such as spicy pot, snacks and fried food. It is best to eat less, replenish enough water and eat more fruits and vegetables containing vitamin C, which will increase the body's immunity and improve the skin's immunity.
clothes
Choosing clothes made of pure cotton is less likely to cause skin allergies. The higher the ratio of nylon and flax in clothing materials, the more sensitive the skin is.
on one's pins
The humidity in the environment is high, which is easy to produce mold, breed pathogens and cause skin allergies. It is recommended to use dehumidifier and air conditioner to keep indoor humidity at 50 ~ 60% and reduce the entry into high humidity areas.
line
According to the air quality monitoring network of Environmental Protection Bureau, the air quality index (AQI) is between 10 1 ~ 150, so sensitive groups should avoid going out. The air quality index (AQI) exceeds 150. Everyone should avoid staying outdoors for a long time, so as to avoid air pollutants such as fine suspended particulate matter (PM2.5), ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from harming the skin.
Increase moisture
Avoid washing your skin with too hot water. After bathing, apply moisturizing lotion to moisturize the whole body.
Care Products
For ordinary people and patients with urticaria, it is recommended to use humectants with water-retaining components such as hyaluronic acid, collagen and plant extracts. If you are an atopic dermatitis patient, you can use moisturizing agents with oily ingredients such as vegetable oil, mineral oil, glycerin and vaseline to keep the skin in a good state of oil-water balance.
pressure
In order to avoid excessive pressure and reduce the immunity of the body, we should relieve the pressure properly and exercise regularly, and clean the skin immediately after exercise. Too much sweat stays on the skin, which can easily lead to skin allergies.
sleep
Sleep normally, go to bed early and get up early. Don't stay up late. Go to bed before 0/2 in the evening and get up before 8: 00 in the morning.
Yes, 10 for allergy prevention.
