Ayurvedic Cures for Dust Pollution

by Gyan Unlimited

Indoors, you need to protect yourself from kitchen soot, fungus, and dust mites. This is the kind of dust that comes in thru the windows, with products and footwear, and remains trapped in the house. It can give allergies/infections to the inhabitants and, in the long run, pose serious health problems because the elements in the dust are carcinogenic.

Brooming and sweeping does not clean the house. It only lifts & spreads the thin dust back into the air which later settles back. Disturbing it only make it easy for the dust to enter your breathing system. It is best to trap it before it enters your lungs.
