Hi? Sophia,
It may not be winter yet, but in Chicago where Billy and I live it certainly FEELS like it!
I love getting out for my daily walk, but when the weather turns cold, I spend a lot less time outside, and much more time in my home.
Of course, thanks to world events, we've all been spending a lot of time inside our homes...
Not to scare you, but a few years ago I came across a pretty startling fact about home toxicity that changed everything for me:
The air inside your house can be up to 100 times dirtier and more toxic than the air outside?
??
How is this possible?
As it turns out, the number of things that create toxic build-up in our homes is mind-blowing!
?? Chemicals in our beauty, body, and cleaning products
?? Toxic plastics in our kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, etc
?? Off-gassing from our carpets, rugs, paint, and building materials
?? VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) from cooking
. and so much more!
It's unfortunate that most people aren't even aware of these dangers.
Because as it turns out, many symptoms - like sleep troubles, breathing issues, immune struggles, and even irritability - can be caused by toxic air in our homes.
With cold and flu season nearly upon us, our bodies are about to be working overtime trying to keep us healthy.
The last thing anyone wants is to be taken down by a virus or bacteria floating around INSIDE our home!
So what can we do?
When I learned about indoor toxicity, I knew I had to find a way to filter out contaminants in my home immediately.
Sadly, most indoor air purifiers on the market fall way short when it comes to protecting you and your family because they.
- Are undersized (not enough detox power)
- Aren't designed to remove toxic gasses
- Can only remove a small % of the dangerous particles from your air
In my research, I've found that the key to air purifying effectiveness has to do with the SIZE of the particle a purifier can remove from the air.
As an example:
?????? Mold spores = 10 microns
?????? Dust = 5 microns
?????? Bacteria = 1 micron
?????? Viruses = 0.004 microns
Some air purifiers on the market can effectively handle particles as small as 5 microns.
But there's only 1 affordable option I found that can handle the virus size of .004 microns...
It's called the AirDoctor, and for my family, it's been a total game-changer.
