The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimated that 262 million people worldwide were affected by asthma in 2019.

Is it possible to improve asthma?

In the same year, asthma accounted for 461,000 deaths globally. Asthma numbers are on the rise, with one study discovering that the number of people suffering from asthma increases by 50% every ten years.

What contributes to asthma attacks?

Research shows that cold and dry air cause inflammation in the nasal passages, sinuses and airways in the lungs, which can lead to asthma attacks. Humidification can help improve asthma by reducing the negative effects of cold and dry air by warming and moistening inhaled air and reducing your risk of asthma attacks.

What is asthma?

Asthma attacks are caused by the swelling and tightening of the muscles surrounding the airways in the lungs. This causes the air passages to narrow, leading to coughing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and wheezing. Asthma triggers are different from person to person, but they can include cold and dry air caused by a change in the weather, dust, smoke, colds and flu, fumes, pollen, perfume, and animal fur/feathers.

Did you know? The WHO discovered that only half of the population in low-income countries had access to a bronchodilator, and less than 1 in 5 had access to a steroid inhaler in 2019. These are essential for improving asthma, and managing asthma attacks and could even contribute to saving thousands of lives each year.

How can the goBU wearable humidifiers help improve asthma?

Inside your nasal passages, sinuses and the airways into your lungs, there are tiny hairs called micro cilia. Their job is to sweep away foreign matter such as viruses, bacteria, allergens, and mucous, making breathing easier and preventing infection. For these hairs to function correctly, they need to be warm and moist. 

Cold and dry air paralyses these hairs leading to a build-up of mucous and other asthma triggers. The patented goBU wearable humidifier features a H100 filter that humidifies the air that you breathe thus maintaining your first line of defence in fighting off allergens, viruses and bacteria.

 

How can humidification help you?

The goBU wearable humidifiers create a sealed breathing environment which provides optimal breathing conditions for asthmatics. Our Heat and Moisture Exchange (HME) filter traps heat and moisture from exhaled air and disperses it into inhaled air. By removing most asthma triggers and heating and moistening the air through humidification, the goBU wearable humidifier could significantly reduce the risk of asthma attacks and help improve asthma as a whole.

Humidifying the air you breathe can increase your oxygen absorption and help with Asthma. If you breathe in cold and dry air, the air entering your lungs isn’t moist or at the correct temperature, making breathing difficult. Wearing a goBU wearable humidifier will warm and moisten inhaled air and help increase the amount of oxygen your body can absorb.

Now you can take care of your health and wellbeing while living a healthy lifestyle with the goBU wearable humidifiers.
