subject: Breathe Better, Sleep Better [print this page] Your good health depends on inhaling clean air. Stores and offices are most likely out of your control, but you should definitely protect your home's air. The following products can make a big difference in the quality of air you breathe.
If your environment is very arid, you may want a steam vaporizer. Very dry air can dehydrate your body and sinuses. This can be a bigger problem during fall and winter when the temperature outside drops and when colds are spread so easily. Artificial heat sometimes makes the conditions less suitable. A steam vaporizer, or humidifier, is a helpful answer. To rehydrate the air, a humidifier boils water and then releases the bacteria-free vapor. Replenishing the moistness of the air can rehydrate your body and help you fight off viruses and bacteria. It can also help you live and rest comfortably by reducing the occurrence of itchy eyes and skin and scratchy throat.
A dehumidifier can help when the air quality is too moist. Too much humidity can also breed bacteria. It also creates ideal conditions for mold and mildew to grow. Dehumidifiers treat the air so that some of the moisture is removed and the warm, drier air is released. Dehumidifiers also heat the air slightly before it is released. This less humid air can help you breathe and sleep better. A small, quiet dehumidifier could make a big difference in a bedroom or any room.
Air purifiers do just as their name implies: clean the air. If youve spent time outside, you bring in pollen and other particles with you. Outdoor allergens and toxins then mix with the indoor substances in the air. If you have allergies or even if you don't, these particles can cause your respiratory system to react strongly. Air purifiers and filters can alleviate the effects. There are many stores that sell simple air filters for your home vents. Air purifiers are also relatively easy to find. Electrical air purifiers are very versatile and have a filtration system that makes air quality much cleaner and healthier.
By enhancing your air quality you can make a big difference in how you breathe every day. Air quality machines make a big difference and often for very little money. These options are eco-friendly and most importantly theyre you-friendly.
