Cold weather, dry indoor air, allergens, and poor air quality can all make breathing more difficult during fall and winter. Simple steps such as using a vaporizer, improving ventilation, staying hydrated, covering your nose and mouth outside, and watching air quality can help protect lung health. These habits can help people in Canada and other cold regions breathe easy.
