What’s Wrong With Our Indoor Air?

There is a lot of talk about air pollution in various parts of the country.  Currently there is a lot of concern about the air quality in Southern California because of the rash of fires.

As bad as you think outdoor pollution may be, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says that our indoor environment is two to five times more toxic than our outdoor environment, and in some cases, the air measurements indoors have been found to be 100 times more polluted.

After a fire, this can be a real problem because long after the air outdoors has all visible and odiferous signs of the smoke gone, the very fine particles of ash and airborne chemicals that were brought inside by human and pet traffic or through open doors or windows continue to float around in your air indoors.  In addition, dust, pet dander, and a host of other obnoxious particles also remain airborne for a very long time in indoor air.

Why does Indoor Air remain contaminated longer?

The reason indoor air remains more toxic for a longer time than outdoor air is nature itself!  Outdoors, Nature, using the sun, the wind, moisture in the air, and the natural elements in the air Energizes the air and creates air containing a balance of things such as positive and negative ions, Hydroxyls (natures atmospheric “scrubbers”) to attack odors, chemicals, bacteria, gases and other harmful particles at the molecular level and change them into other, harmless molecules.  This process also causes particles, even very fine ones which are very harmful to our respiratory systems to clump together, get heavy and fall out of the air.  All of this also kills germs and bacteria, mold spores and other bad things.    In this manner, nature renders the air healthful for all living things.

The key factor in all of this is the ENERGY that is in outdoor air, and the balance of compounds and negative and positive ions that is in outdoor air!

Indoor air, on the other hand, is devoid of this energy and rapidly loses the hydroxyls, negative ions, and the other components that sanitize, deodorizes, freshens and enlivens the air.  The lack of energy in the air results in the air very rapidly becoming stale, “dead” air.  When this happens you begin to feel lethargic, cranky, have memory lapses, don’t sleep as well and generally feel ill at ease.  Have you noticed how when you are out in nature, especially in the mountains or near a waterfall or the ocean you feel so much more energized and alert?  If you go camping or sleep with the windows open you seem to sleep better and wake up more alert and energized.

The primary reasons for this are the energy in fresh, organic outdoor air, and the negative ions that are in that air.  The energy helps you breathe better, helps you oxygenate your blood faster and more thoroughly and as a result your organs, especially your brain functions far more efficiently and the negative ions cause pollutant particles to clump together and fall out of the air leaving it feeling fresh.

The EPA also says that Americans spend up to 90% of our time INDOORS!  Indoor air rapidly loses its energy.

In addition, we have an abundance of electronic equipment, appliances, carpeting, furniture and other items that produce an abundance of positive ions.  Very quickly our indoor air becomes overloaded with positive ions, deficient in those negative ions our bodies need, and severely lacking that all important energy.  Indoor air is full of germs, allergens, dust, dust mites, and a host of other things.  Unfortunately this is true in our homes, schools, workplaces, or any indoor space that is deprived of fresh outdoor air.

Our homes and buildings are, in the last 30-40 years, are being built to be nearly airtight due to energy efficiency.    Commercial buildings and schools almost never have windows that open and are very well insulated, virtually eliminating a free exchange of air from outdoors.  The air conditioning systems are pretty much closed systems, recirculating the air already indoors.  In addition the fans and compressors from the air conditioner produce even more of those positive ions, further degrading the healthfulness of indoor air.

The duct works that the heating and air conditioning systems use to move air around are excellent breeding grounds for mold spores and bacteria which are then blown into our air.  Our homes are not any better.  Even when people open their windows or doors, most of us have screens on them to prevent insects and debris from entering our indoor space.  These screens have the effect of “grounding” the electrical charges of the air, thus stripping the negative ions out of any air that comes in.

All of the above is responsible for what you have probably heard of as “Sick Building Syndrome”.  This is responsible for causing a variety of physical and health problems.  This is especially true in the winter months which are the “Cold and Flu Season”.

What Can We Do About our Indoor Air Problems?

OK, we have established that our indoor air is not exactly healthy after a very short time.  So what can we do about it?  We were created to live outdoors, where nature keeps the air healthy, but modern people don’t live outdoors and most of us don’t work outdoors so we must try to do something about our indoor air.

For many years, businesses have tried to solve the problem by filtering or “purifying” indoor air by tying to trap the pollutants in filters or cover up odors with other odors such as perfumes (chemicals, which are, in many cases, equally harmful) or burning scented candles which put paraffin (made from petroleum) particles in the air, which are harmful to your respiratory system.  The big problem with the filters and purifiers is that they just don’t work!

They do capture and remove a very small amount of the particles in your indoor air, but only from the air that they manage to channel through their filters, which is a very small amount, and they are generally only able to affect about 250-400 square feet of space.  The very fine particles (less than 0.3 microns) which are the most harmful to your respiratory system pass right through even the best HEPA filters.

If this approach doesn’t work, what do we do?  Well, fortunately, there is a new approach and technology on the market that changes the whole game.  Instead of trying to strip particles out of the air, which has never really worked, it replicates what Nature does outdoors – it doesn’t try to “purify” the air, it “Naturalizes” it.

“It Restores the Energy to Indoor Air to Make it Act like Fresh, Energized, and Healthy Outdoor Air” This product is called The Air Naturalizer™!

This tiny 4½” inch high innovation electronically replicates what nature does outdoors and energizes the air, puts hydroxyls, and other natural compounds into the air to attack pollutants at the molecular level to render them harmless.  Air Naturalizer also continuously puts over 70 Trillion Negative Ions per second into the air.  In addition to providing what our body needs for good health, these negative ions also cause all those particles floating around in the air – even those very small, very harmful ones, to clump together and fall out of the air.  In addition, Air Naturalizer removes Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) in the form of gases that come from carpeting, furniture, cabinetry, and household cleaning supplies, from the air as well.  It has also been tested to kill mold spores, AND GERMS AND BACTERIA ON SURFACES as well as in the air.

The small Air Naturalizer treats up to 800 square feet of space per unit.  It is available as a single unit, as a two unit Studio Pack covering up to 1600 square feet or as a 4 unit Whole Home System covering up to 3200 square feet.

The Air Naturalizer is a powerful unit that is extremely versatile.  It is a USB powered unit.  Also it can be plugged into a wall outlet using a standard cell phone USB power adapter, into USB port on a computer or used in your vehicle with a cell phone USB charger.  It can even be used portably with a USB Power Pack battery.  Best of all, this amazing product is a fantastic value.  It can be yours for much less than what inferior products with a very small percentage of the capability costs.

The Air Naturalizer is an innovative and proven technology to improve the health of you, your family and/or your friends and work associates.  YOU NEED THIS!
