Limit outdoor exposure and avoid long walks or other physical activities during air pollution. 

Practice deep breathing

Practice deep breathing exercises that improve lung functions and help you achieve your lung's full capacity. 

Exercise regularly 

Keep yourself physically active as regular exercise makes your lungs stronger and helps produce more oxygen in the body.
