It's almost been 2 years since we bought our motorcycle bike. My father use it to take me to my office in Makati via C5-Kalayaan. During the early years, I don't mind the cleanliness of the air as I am "already used to it." In my mind, pollution is already normal. But as time passes by, pollution in the city is getting worse by the second. One factor can be attributed to the increase number of vehicles may it be for public or private use. This increase in number also caused additional traffic.
Pollution, specifically air pollution, as we all know it, can cause some serious health condition on our bodies.
According to Spare The Air, these are some of the health problems/effect we can have.
Again, as I've said, air pollution isn't the only one causing us bad health but also the stress coming from the traffic during our travel to the city.
During the past few months, I've noticed some people wearing gas/face masks. This isn't the "normal" thing here in the Philippines. Well, I guess people now are getting more aware of their health and that is a good thing.
I may as well buy one because I'm just using my hanky to cover my nose during travel. Also when I got home, I always take it into consideration to take in USANA's Essentials. The reason? It's already stated above. I don't want again to be "used to it" and ignore my health. We are all getting older by the day.
This is true. In order for us to take care of other people, especially our love ones, we must first take care of ourselves.
According to Spare The Air, these are some of the health problems/effect we can have.
High air pollution levels can cause immediate health problems:
- Aggravated cardiovascular and respiratory illness
- Added stress to heart and lungs, which must work harder to supply the body with oxygen
- Damaged cells in the respiratory system
Long-term exposure to polluted air can have permanent health effects:
- Accelerated aging of the lungs
- Loss of lung capacity
- Decreased lung function
- Development of diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, and possibly cancer
- Shortened life span
Again, as I've said, air pollution isn't the only one causing us bad health but also the stress coming from the traffic during our travel to the city.
AIR POLLUTION + STRESS = MORE SERIOUS HEALTH CONDITION

"We must first take care of ourselves before we could take care of others"
This is true. In order for us to take care of other people, especially our love ones, we must first take care of ourselves.
And though there's so much pollution and stress around us nowadays, I know I can trust my health to the #1 health supplement.
