Unexpected diseases caused by sitting in air conditioning

Air conditioning creates artificial temperatures that are not good for our immune systems. If you often get sick without knowing why, air conditioning may be the cause.

Sitting in air conditioning too much is bad for your health.

A recent study shows that although air conditioning is very convenient for hot summer days, staying in this environment for too long will have negative effects on your health.

Almost all workplaces have air conditioning to change the temperature to make employees feel comfortable. However, air conditioning creates an artificial temperature, which is not good for our immune system. If you often get sick without knowing why, the air conditioning of your workplace may be the cause.

Here are the negative health effects if you sit in an air-conditioned room for too long:

Sinusitis:Experts say people who sit in air conditioning for more than 4 hours are very likely to get sinusitis because cold air hardens the mucous glands.

Constantly tired:When the air conditioner is turned on at a low temperature, it can make you feel cold and shivery. The body has to adjust itself to warm up, causing constant fatigue.

Viral infections:Working too much in air-conditioned environments, closed rooms, without fresh air circulation can cause viral infections such as flu, colds... to be transmitted from one person to another.

Dry skin:The artificial cold air from air conditioning dries out your skin cells. This can leave your skin dry and rough if you sit in an air-conditioned room for too long without misting or moisturizing your skin.

Dry eyes:One of the main causes of dry eyes with symptoms such as itching and irritation in the eyes is said to be the effect of air conditioning.

Allergy:Many people often forget to clean the air conditioning ducts, where air circulation takes place, so a lot of dirt and mold accumulates in there. Air circulating through dirty ducts can cause allergies.

Weakened immune system:Studies have shown that people who spend a lot of time in air-conditioned rooms have weak immune systems. They get sick more often and take longer to recover than others.
