What are the benefits of lime to human body
Lime absorbs some water in indoor air, which reduces the water content in indoor air. Breathing out in dry air is easy to cause water shortage in human body. It is recommended that you drink 3ml (1 glass) of water before going to sleep every day, and then see how you react when you get up in the morning.
In addition, if lime is exposed to heavy air, part of the powder will drift in the air with the fine flow of air. If it is inhaled into the nasal cavity or lungs, it is also harmful to human body. If lime is inhaled into the human body in large quantities, it will cause acute pulmonary edema and pneumonia, and serious' pneumoconiosis' will occur (pneumoconiosis is a systemic disease mainly caused by diffuse fibrosis of lung tissue due to long-term inhalation of productive dust in occupational activities and retention in the lungs).
Efficacy and function of lime
It can be sprayed on fish ponds for disinfection and sterilization. It is composed of non-ecological substances such as quicklime, which stays in the lungs after being inhaled, causing great harm to the human body.
The possibility of suffering from lung disease is high, which may lead to pulmonary fibrosis, sclerosis and loss of normal respiratory function, leading to pneumoconiosis.
in addition, some dust can also cause other diseases.
What harm does lime do to people
1. Inhalation into the lungs will stimulate the air bubbles in the lungs, thus promoting the increase of pulmonary secretions and producing physiological reactions such as cough and expectoration. If too much lime powder is inhaled, it may be deposited in the lungs, affecting the function of alveoli, and ultimately affecting the normal respiratory function
2. Lime powder is an alkaline substance. If it is directly contacted with the skin for a long time, it will cause skin diseases, which is the simplest peeling. If it is quicklime, it can directly burn the skin in serious cases, because quicklime will have a process of fever and exotherm when it meets water. The quicklime is so strong that you can boil eggs during the exothermic process. Be sure to take protective measures when contacting lime. Don't be careless.
