Air Purifiers, Supplements a Must After Air Pollution Exposure
Allie coaches health advice-seekers as such:
“Usually I’m talking about sickness. But today I’m talking about in case you have wildfires or in close proximity to wildfires or the aftermath, the smoke and particulate in the air.
So if you can have an air cleaner, that’s great. With a HEPA filter. I like AustinAir and Mila (and have 2 of each!)”
Vitamin Supplements to Neutralize Free Radicals from Poor Air Quality, Wildfires
Allie advises, “I also keep three supplements on hand in case of emergency:
1 Vitamin C: you can take this as a supplement 500 milligrams per day.
It neutralizes free radicals.
2 Have NAC on hand, taking 500 milligrams per day as well.
Supports respiratory health and liver and kidney Supports respiratory health and liver and kidney detox.
3 Glutathione. NAC being the precursor to glutathione, but glutathione itself being your master antioxidant. 200mg 2-3x/day
Helps with oxidative stress that you’re experiencing from the smoke and particulate in the air.
