Indoor Air Pollution: Here’s What You Need To Know!

You inhale about 11,000 liters of air daily. The air you breathe circulates within your entire body. It provides critical fuel to internal organs, including your heart, lungs, kidneys, and liver.

In a matter of moments, you can introduce toxins into every cell of your body by breathing in polluted air.

Air pollution does not only come from big industrial plants billowing out smoke. Being inside your home wont completely protect you from it either. If you think you are safe, nothing could be further from the truth.

IN FACT, according to a study done by the Environmental Protect Agency, indoor air in the United States can be up to 100 times more polluted than outdoor air. (click on the link to review more info)

Where does pollution come from?

Pollutants within the home come from internal and external sources.

The air in your home could be contaminated by:

- Air fresheners

- Cleaning products

- Mold and dampness

- Candles and fire place

- Perfume and deodorants with synthetic fragrances and chemical compounds

- Cook on Non stick cookware

- Pet dander

- Tobacco

- Chemicals found in building martial

- Outgassing of toxin chemicals from paint, carpet, and furniture in the house

- Viruses and bacteria

- Gas stoves, ovens, and dryers

and more

Some symptoms you can look for are:

- nasal congestion, difficulty sleeping, fatigue, sneezing, itchy, skin irritations, etc

MOST people wont even realize that this common symptoms are cause from indoor pollutions.

What can you do to protect yourself:

- Purchase a HEPA Ultra Low air filter system unit

- Never let anyone smoke indoors

- Keep well groomed pets

- Paints, chemicals, building martial should not be stored in the house

- Even if its for a few minutes open the windows as much as possible

- Clean or change filters in your home often, furnace filters etc

- Vacuum and sweep often

- Use eco-friendly none toxic home cleaning supplies

- Clean all mold in the house as soon as it appears on shower curtains, sinks, walls etc

- Make sure gas burning appliance are fully vented for outdoors

- Keep indoor humidity under 50%

- Paints that emit fewer toxins like VOC ( Volatile organic chemical)

- Buy green furnishings

The type of air filter to look for:

There are many air filter systems units out there today, but not all of them are the same. IN fact some give off ozone which is not good for your health either.

I suggest looking for a Ultra-Hepa air filter system unit. ULTRA-HEPA systems are design to trap 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.003 microns! THAT IS HUGE!!!!!

There are HEPA systems out there but they are NOT the same as ULTRA HEPA.

Ultra Hepa also can capture the smallest viruses and the smallest airborne particulates like smoke. HEPA alone does not do the full job, it does half the job, where Ultra Hepa takes out much more plus chemicals, gas fumes etc.

WHERE CAN YOU GET ONE?

Sure you can go down to the local store and hunt and hunt for a ULTRA HEPA if they have access to one. Most stores only sell Hepa.

If you want to get your hands on an ULTRA HEPA I'm going to recommend where I purchase mine, for the advance technology, all green, and the top on line.

I get mine from www.nikken.com/backontrack

It has been a very great investment to my health and home.
