Fresh Air
Being a crowded stuffy environments is the number one way that colds get around, so what can you do about it? Go outside! Take a walk and try to get in some fresh air when you can, it’s really good for you.
Another excellent thing to do is to freshen up the air in your home. Especially If you use a lot of scented candles, have pets, or if you smoke in your home, as these allergens can cause irritation and make your cold worse. Opening your windows for a half hour to an hour can help to clear out the air. You can also try using home air purifiers, which can be purchased at any home or hardware store.
Air filters work to remove allergens like mold, pollen, bacteria, pet dander and smoke from the air by filtering the air through an air filter, usually a HEPA filter, which removes 99.97% of these particles from the air. The more times air passes through a filter, the cleaner it becomes.
