UNDERSTANDING ASTHMA AND UAE'S UNIQUE CHALLENGES

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterised by inflamed airways, leading to symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. Triggers often include dust, pollen, pollution, pet dander, and mold - all common in the UAE's environment. The cities’ frequent dust storms and sandstorms, coupled with indoor allergens from air-conditioned spaces, create a perfect storm for asthma sufferers. Especially for families with young children and pet owners, who are more vulnerable to air pollution, while indoor allergens can worsen asthma symptoms.

However, many residents don’t realise that indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air. With people spending more than half of their time indoors, ensuring clean air at home and work is critical for asthma management.

This World Asthma Day, the focus is not just on awareness but also on actionable solutions - one of the most effective being high - performance air purifiers.
