With the worsening of the haze in Singapore breaking into the 300 hazardous levels, many people are experiencing respiratory problems such as sore throat, excessive phlegm, breathing difficulties, cough, skin and eyes irritation. For more severe cases, patients who have history of asthma, suffer repeated attacks and even have problems with lung infections.
In our TCM Clinic, we have also seen a significant increase in the number of patients coming in to seek treatment for cough, asthma and skin related problems. With traditional chinese medicine, while we are able to help you with the recovery of such problems, we believe that prevention is better than cure.
To build up your immunity, we are providing some suggestions for home remedies for you to fight the haze problems in your daily life. For your diet, you can consider consuming more white coloured food as such foods can help to clear your lungs.
For example: White Fungus, Radish, Almonds, Water Chestnuts, Lotus Seeds, Lilum and Dioscorea opposita.
