Air pollution is harmful to your lungs. The chemical in smog accumulates in the respiratory system, causing symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, suffocation, and a sense of weight in the chest. This is produced by a buildup of Kapha Dosha in the body, according to Ayurveda. Tobacco smoking, the use of coal for cooking, building labour, and indoor pollutants (radon gas) are all causes of bronchitis, cancer, and other significant respiratory problems, in addition to an increase in air pollution.
“Air pollution aggravates the imbalance in Prana Vata and Shleshaka Kapha, which leads to the production of shleshma (mucus), which settles in the nasal area and clogs the sinus channels,” says Mr. Abishek Ramesh, Director of Kairali Ayurvedic Centre. Sinus is caused by an underlying imbalance in Prana Vata and Shleshaka Kapha.”
