Air Pollution. Any ways to counteract or mitigate?

[lmfao]

Living in a town right now, I might be moving back to a city soon. Nottingham specifically. 

Googling it, seems air pollution has risks in regards to developing/worsening breathing and lung difficulties, also some cardiovascular risks. I mean is there is anything to do about it if someone lives in such an area besides limit exposure? Can't say I exactly know the mechanism or science behind it, other than the "common sense" that random shit in your body generally isn't good.

Look up Dr. Rhonda Patrick taking about broccoli sprouts.

Hepa air purifiers with activated charcoal.

@Opo @integral Cool suggestions, thanks.

Get a quiet one with a big activated charcoal bed (thick or multiple). Should do the trick. The DIY ones are very cheap to make, but in my experience i couldn't find a way to make them quiet.

You want to basically consume abundace of foods that support hepatic detoxification pathways: 

1. all cruciferous vegetables: at least 2 cups/ day - these are superb for detox support. It was even found that eating broccoli reduces the impact of showering with contaminated water.  

2. seeds: good source of cysteine that helps with production of glutathione + look up other foods rich in cysteine 

3. very high fibre diet to improve toxin elimination

4. good hydration & make sure to filter your water

5. eradication of other toxifying habits (alcohol, tobacco, weed, eating junk) 

6. exercise especially high intensity that drives a lot of sweating

7. saunas 

8. air filtration system may be helpful as well but I've never looked into this to know whether they really work
