From year to year, specialists alert us to the tragic level, especially in large cities. It is then recommended that you avoid walking and exercise outdoors and stay indoors until the situation improves. Are we able to influence the quality of our air at home ourselves?
Plants that will decorate the apartment and improve air quality
Creating a home jungle can immediately contribute to the improvement of air quality in the rooms in which we live. Plants are the best dirt and dust catchers. they also enrich the air with oxygen that is valuable to us. Shade-loving plants with large, thin leaves are the best.
Plants that have a beneficial effect on the quality of the air we breathe and are safe are:
- a little chamedora,
- anthurium with characteristic red flowers,
- popular fern, or nephrolepis obliterata,
- rapis haughty – easy to maintain palm tree,
- Sternberg’s herbalist,
- low date palm,
- Jameson’s Gerbera.
It is also worth knowing that the number of plants in the room will affect the effectiveness of air purification. So it’s worth having a few of them to be able to enjoy the effects.
Air humidification also affects its quality
During the winter, when we feel the effects of smog the most, there are also problems with dry air in our apartments and more. Feeling scratching, itching or other ailments in the esophagus that are not related to diseases is a sign that we should take care of the quality of hydration in our household. The easiest way is to hang a wet towel or laundry. However, if we still feel dry air in the apartment, we should invest in the purchase of an air humidifier. It is worth remembering not to exceed the appropriate amount of air humidity, which favors the development of substances harmful to health.
The smell also matters. Improve your mood naturally
The most popular scented candles and incense sticks also guarantee an improvement in mood. However, it’s worth remembering that their artificial aromas can irritate the respiratory tract, so consider buying candles made of natural wax, which are much healthier for the air. For lovers of intense fragrances, we recommend a fireplace with a heater and natural aromatherapy oils.
