Air Purifying Plants

Air-purifying plants- A boon to healthy living

Did you know the air inside your home is equally or sometimes more polluted than the air outside? How? Here's how - we live in buildings made with synthetic materials which make the exchange of fresh air almost nil. Harmful poisonous gases are constantly being emitted around us. Ammonia gas from toilets, carbon monoxide from stoves, formaldehyde from garbage, trichloroethylene from wood finishes, benzene from detergent and many more harmful gases that we inhale daily as we spend 90% of the time indoors.These gases have an adverse effect on us. If any of your family members are complaining of headaches, migraines, asthma, burning in the eyes or any other skin allergies, the culprit behind all those health issues, it's quite possible the reason might be one of these deadly gases.

There are many companies out there in the market who sell expensive air purifiers. Though you may be able to afford these, none of the air purifiers that are sold can purify carbon monoxide present in the air. So what is the use of buying these expensive machines? Not only are these air purifiers high maintenance, but they also increase our carbon footprint.

Mother Nature has the answers to all these questions, and they have been in front of us all along. In 1989 NASA published a study on 'Clean Air' and found a brilliant solution to combat this situation. The answer is Indoor Plants that have air-purifying properties. NASA listed out 8-9 such plants that are required for an optimum home air clean-up. These indoor plants are Tulsi, Spider Plant, Pothos Plant, Bamboo Plant, Peace Lily, Boston Fern, Chrysanthemum, Dracena, Snake Plant. All of these plants, when placed inside your home, have the capacity to purify your home of the harmful gases present there, including carbon monoxide. Here's what makes indoor plants a must have - They are highly cost-effective, they don't leave a carbon footprint, they make your home aesthetically appealing while taking care of your family members health.
