23.01.2022 Public Health Alert: Possible thunderstorm asthma event on Saturday 28 November The ACT Health Directorate is warning of the potential for a thunderstorm asthma event in the ACT region on Saturday 28 November 2020. The warning comes as we see elevated pollen levels and the possibility of severe thunderstorms on Saturday, increasing the risk of a thunderstorm asthma event. There is also a possibility that raised dust may impact the ACT on Sunday 29 November due to stron...g and gusty winds. Thunderstorm asthma can be triggered by a combination of high grass pollen levels and a particular type of thunderstorm, which causes some people to develop severe asthma symptoms over a short period of time. The risk of thunderstorm asthma may be increased this year with wetter than usual conditions encouraging grass growth and increased stormy weather in our region. Not all thunderstorms produce an asthma event, and thunderstorm asthma is a rare event. However, people who suffer from hay fever and/or asthma are encouraged to be vigilant over the weekend for any worsening of their condition. People who have been diagnosed with asthma in the past should also be prepared for a thunderstorm asthma event, particularly if they have suffered or continue to suffer from hay fever. Carry a reliever (blue puffer) with you. Where possible avoid being outside during a thunderstorm especially in the wind gusts that come before the storm. Go inside and close your doors and windows. If you have your air conditioning on, turn it onto recirculate. If you develop asthma symptoms, use your reliever (blue puffer) medication and follow your asthma action plan, if you have one. If you experience asthma symptoms that are not relieved by usual asthma treatment, you should seek further urgent medical advice. In the event of a medical emergency you should call 000 See more

04.01.2022 Capital Chemist Southlands are now proud stockists of Pure Deo Co. Deodorant developed for an active lifestyle and to withstand all of the hot moments and stresses of daily life. Most people who use an anti-perspirant deodorant are unaware that the active ingredient in many deodorants is aluminium salts, which actually block your pores, so your body is unable to sweat.... The main function of sweat is to control body temperature and eliminate toxins. When blocking sweat with aluminium salts you actually continue to sweat under the skin surface, hyperactively, in order to achieve the cooling response required by the body. The toxins are either absorbed by your body or metabolised through your lymphatic system. When that anti-perspirant deodorant wears off, the smell you detect is a combination of the aluminium salts from your pores and all of the trapped bacteria that has been gathering in your pores. Not nice! The solution Pure Deo Co. came up with was to produce an aluminium free deodorant. Instead, Pure Deo Co. deodorants contain high quality food grade coconut oil which allows your skin to breathe and is naturally anti-microbial making it very hard for bacteria to grow. Many health-conscious people who wanted to buy natural deodorant in Australia. After completing their research, they discovered they could make Pure Deo Co. a totally chemical free deodorant that effectively neutralises odour. Changing to a natural deodorant will positively affect your health on many levels.
