Aftereffects of staying inside air-conditioned enclosures for long periods

Posted on: 18/Mar/2019 4:36:33 PM
The functioning of air conditioners is harmful to the skin. The air-conditioner absorbs the moisture content in the skin! This leads to skin dryness. Even the lips get dry.

The people who spend long periods in an air-conditioned environment may not get exposed to sufficient quality of sunlight. This will lead to a vitamin D shortage.

One should not be seated facing the air-conditioner directly.  This will simulate sinus problems. It may lead to complaints such as blocks in the breathing, feeling as though the ears are plugged, etc. So, the people who already have complaints such as psoriasis, eczema, etc., should note that their complaints will get more intense.

This vitamin is essential for various activities/functions such as getting pregnant, proper functioning of the heart and the lungs, etc. If vitamin D is short, the bones will get weakened. Complaints such as backache and joint-aches will be frequent. Some may get affected by asthma as well! There are even chances of getting affected with headache, lungs infection, etc.

Especially the diabetic will be strongly affected by skin dryness.

There are possibilities of the hair getting broken for those who spend more time in the air-conditioned environment. The strength of the hair may also get reduced.

For those who use air-conditioners without cleaning them properly/regularly, they may get affected by bacterial infection and suffer from skin complaints.  In case anyone of the staff is affected by conjunctivitis or ‘Madras eye’, it will immediately spread to the entire office! Some of the people may get a very dry-eye condition where tears could not be generated easily.

By synchronizing our lifestyle with nature and the natural resource, one can control the harms/complaints of spending long periods in an air-conditioned environment!
