Is it good to walk in the morning?
Air quality is usually bad in the morning, especially during the winter season. The current air condition in Delhi is that the morning air is not pure at all. At present the level of pollution in the morning air of Delhi is high. Health experts say that the effect of fog and smog is more in the morning in winter, which can make the air more poisonous. Therefore, amidst increasing levels of pollution, one should avoid going for a walk in the morning.
How right is it to walk in the evening amid pollution?
The level of pollution in the air may reduce slightly due to sunlight throughout the day, but in the evening, especially during peak hours of traffic, the level of pollution may increase again. However, after sunset, pollution levels may increase again due to falling temperatures. Therefore, going for a walk even in the evening can be harmful for health.
When can you take a walk in the morning or evening?
According to health experts, considering the level at which pollution has reached, it is not safe to walk either in the morning or in the evening. Therefore, go for a walk outside the house only after seeing the Air Quality Index i.e. AQI. If the AQI level is more than 200 then it is better that you do not go out of the house and take a walk inside the house.
Use a face mask: If the AQI is a little high and walking is necessary, wearing a face mask can avoid pollution to some extent.
Consider home exercise: If the AQI is very high, it may be safer to opt for yoga, stretching or other types of exercise indoors.
Overall, if a time has to be chosen between morning and evening, then after checking the air quality index, walking in the evening can be considered safer than in the morning. However, this decision can also be taken considering the evening traffic and temperature.
