In this conversation, pediatric pulmonologist Dr. Irina Dralyuk discusses the importance of lung health, especially in light of recent fires affecting air quality in Los Angeles. She explains the significance of air quality indices (AQI), and its limitations. She reviews the use of air purifiers and masks, to protect lung health, particularly for vulnerable populations such as children with pre-existing conditions. She emphasizes the importance of post-exposure care, the role of vitamins and homeopathic remedies, and the impact of nutrition on lung health. Dr Dralyuk also addresses exercise considerations during times of poor air quality, school safety measures, and the current trends in pediatric respiratory issues. She concludes with an optimistic outlook on lung healing and recovery, reassuring parents about the resilience of the lungs and the body's ability to heal itself.
