Recently, the top news headline of the country was dominated by rising pollution levels in some of the top cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Mumbai, Kanpur, Kolkata, etc. Although, a lot is being reported about outdoor air pollution, we seldom hear news and reports about indoor air pollution. According to several studies, it is estimated that indoor air pollution is 2 or 3 more toxic than outside air. There are several health risks associated with indoor air pollution. Young children and old persons are particularly susceptible to develop health complications because of breathing stale and polluted indoor air. However, by installing air purifier for home, some grave health risks can be averted. In fact, as per a WHO report, indoor air pollution is the main cause of premature deaths in several developing countries including India. To generate greater awareness about indoor air-pollution we have listed information on 5 health conditions which can perpetuated due to exposure to poor indoor air quality – Pneumonia Pneumonia is the most prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality in children below the age of 5 years old and the elderly. People suffering from Pneumonia develop acute lung infection which can be further compounded if exposed to poor air quality. Although, a treatable condition in younger and healthy adults, the effects of Pneumonia can be fatal in young babies and older adults. Lung Cancer Unlike other types of Cancer where genetic predisposition is the major reason for the onset of the disease, in lung cancer environment and habit (smoking) are the primary causes. If we inquire into the source of indoor pollution, you will be surprised to learn that cooking fumes and cigarette smoke is the main reason for indoor air pollution. The problem with smoking is that smokers not only put their health at risks, but of also those who are in their surroundings. By being exposed to healthy and pristine air and curtailing smoking one can reduce the risk of developing lung cancer quite significantly. Asthma Typically, not a life-threatening disease, the symptoms of asthma can worsen in people who are exposed to poor quality air. Pollen, dust, mites, molds, pen dander, out-door dust etc. are other sources of indoor air pollution. The presence of these pollutants and particulate matter in the indoor air can trigger asthma attack in people who are already diagnosed with the condition. However, if air purifier for home in installed, these pollutants can be efficiently eliminated. Bronchitis If cold and flu-like symptoms last longer than 2 weeks, it could very well be bronchitis. Bronchitis can be acute and severe, depending at what stage the condition has been diagnosed. Recurrent and acute coughing along with mucus formation is the first sign of bronchitis. Weak immune system, indoor air pollutions and smoking can trigger these symptoms. Brain Damage People who have home close to a construction site or someone has recently got their home painted or renovated may be exposed to paint fumes. Many are not aware , but fumes form paint, glue and degreasers can cause irreversible brain damage. Paint products are made from petroleum solvents which is believed to cause dizziness and memory problem.
