I live in an area near the ocean where, normally, the winds bring, 
more-or-less, clean air from the ocean into the city.  During certain 
times of the year, the wind direction changes and, instead, the urban 
smog blows into town.  I wonder if anyone on the list experiences urban 
pollution (smog, etc.) and has found any foods or herbs, etc., that help 
alleviate the problem.  My primary focus would be on "moping up" the 
toxins with raw foods or herbs/tea; secondary focus on alleviating 
symptoms (such as post-nasal drip, lung irritation, dry and bleeding 
nasal passages, etc.)
