Why is indoor air quality important?
Did you know that the air that you are breathing in when you are indoors is filled with dust, mould spores, flame retardants, perfumes, microplastics and other toxins that can impact your health!
As many of us spend up to 90% of our time indoors (working, cooking, relaxing & sleeping) it is really important that we think about what we are breathing in each and every day.
Poor indoor air quality is linked with numerous health conditions and symptoms including:
Fatigue/Low Energy
Difficulty Concentrating and/or Memory Issues
Brain Fog
Headaches/Migraines
Dizziness
Skin Issues (Dry, Itchy, Inflamed, Rashes, Allergic Reactions)
Hormone Imbalances
Mood Changes
Digestive Issues (IBS, Bloating, Changes in Bowel Movements)
Immune System Imbalances (Sneezing, Irritated Nose/Throat/Lungs)
Respiratory Issues (Coughing, Wheezing, Shortness of Breath)
Increased risk of certain cancers
and more!
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms I highly recommend that you look to improve your indoor air quality. Try to reduce the number of toxins within your home, such as, perfumed personal care products, non-natural cleaning products, mould and dust. You will not be able to reduce everything and that is where an air purifier comes in.
