As fine dust occurs regardless of the season, ways to manage your health through food are also attracting attention.

On the 20th, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety introduced water parsley, garlic, mackerel, and quince as foods that help fight fine dust.

Fine dust is a very small dust that is smaller than the diameter of a hair and is invisible to the naked eye. It is mainly generated from burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil, or from exhaust gases from factories and automobiles.

Fine dust easily enters our bodies through breathing and is absorbed into the bronchi or lungs, causing various respiratory diseases. It can cause allergic rhinitis or conjunctivitis, alveolar damage, bronchitis, etc.

Water parsley is a food that helps with fine dust. Water parsley is rich in vitamins and minerals, and helps absorb heavy metals in the body and expel them from the body. It also purifies the blood.

When choosing water parsley, it is best to have the right shape of leaves, smooth stems, no nodes, and dark green. Also, choose ones that have had withered leaves and fine roots well removed and have been washed cleanly.

Garlic is also a food that helps with fine dust. Allicin contained in garlic helps expel various toxins accumulated in the body and suppresses the accumulation of waste.

Garlic should not sprout, have no odor, or have any discolored parts. Choose ones that are uniform in shape and size and have firm but not soft meat. Also, choose ones that look light and clear in color and have a narrow and firm root area.

Mackerel is a food that helps improve lung disease symptoms. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which relieves inflammation in the respiratory tract. Mackerel is known to help improve lung disease symptoms.

A tip for choosing a good mackerel is that the flesh is elastic when pressed, and the body color and eyes are clear. When you lift the gills, it is fresh because it is crimson, shiny and rainbow-colored on the surface.

Quince contains amygdalin, which reduces phlegm stuck in the bronchial tubes. It is effective in relieving sore throat symptoms and stopping coughing.

Green tea is also helpful for the body tired from fine dust. Green tea’s tannin content excretes heavy metals introduced into the body by fine dust. It also washes away fine dust in the bronchi and excretes it through urine.
