Care of the Nose

The almost insignificant protuberance that we find exactly in the center of our faces, commonly known as the nose, is one of the most important parts of our respiratory system. It is through the nose that we are able to imbibe almost fresh and pure air into the lungs. By pure and fresh air we mean what we are told is pure and fresh. With the increase in pollution that we now have to face it is no longer safe to assume that we are really able to get pure and breathable air. Even so the nose has been designed to filter out much of the foreign matter that attempts to enter the body. How important this is we can only come to realise when we actually study its function from close range.
