Part of living a healthy lifestyle is doing what you can to protect yourself from both air and water pollution. The obvious solution is to choose a place to live where the pollution index is low. Visit Scorecard.org to see where your county ranks among others in terms of environmental pollution.

Unfortunately, most of us cannot afford to just pick up and go to get away from the pollution. The good news is that there are things you can do to minimize your exposure to dangerous pollutants even if you live in a city with a high pollution index.
1. Install water filters in your home. A water filter can do a fairly decent job of ridding your drinking water of toxins. There are also water filters made for the shower which can clear bathing water of pollutants that may be harmful to your skin. A quality shower filter coupled with Bath Body Junky (www.bathbodyjunky.com) skin-nourishing bath and body items is a great way to protect your skin from damage.

2. If you exercise outdoors, do so away from high-traffic areas and polluted thoroughfares. Also, it is best to exercise outdoors when the smog rating is low.

3. Buy an air purifier (or more than one) for your home. Most people spend most of their time on an average day at home, so this is an easy way to be sure that the air that you are breathing each day is safe and healthy.

4. Plant lots of plants in your yard. Plants absorb toxins as well as deter dirt from the street. Planting shrubbery around your home will help to reduce the pollution that you inhale each day.

5. When painting your home, use high-solids paints, which contain less solvents. These paints can reduce harmful chemical emissions by up to 75%.

Eating healthy and using skin-friendly bath items, like those we sell at Bath Body Junky (www.bathbodyjunky.com), that equip you with vitamins and nutrients that make you look and feel great are two ways to be healthy. Use these five tips for avoiding polluted air and water and you are one step closer to achieving your optimum health.
