Green Health Technologies: Health is in the Air!

Copyright Lynn Knudsen, March, 2018

When you see that phrase, what comes to your mind?

To most of us, it can be taken two ways, depending upon which word you subconsciously emphasize. If you think of the emphasis being on the word Health, then most would think that health is a hot topic of conversation or focus. If you think of the emphasis as being on the word air, then the meaning shifts to where you find health.

This article is going to deal with the latter meaning. Of course, health is a topic of interest and worthy of discussion; however, it is one of those topics that is discussed and written about constantly. What isn’t discussed as much is NOT how important it is ― everyone knows good health is an important topic. What is an open topic is where to find good health. It can be elusive, and there are all kinds of things written about eating this, or taking that, or doing this or that!

This article is going to be rather detailed and takes that stand that Health is all around us! Health is, indeed, “in the air”! And, we apologize in advance for making a strong case for a product we strongly believe in, and that can help achieve good health for you, your family and/or associates.

Most of us have experienced that feeling of renewed vigor when we have been outdoors, at the beach, or in nature, or just in a park where there was plenty of sunshine, greenery or perhaps a slight breeze. Especially near moving water or a waterfall!

Outdoor Air

If you have ever been camping, you have undoubtedly noticed that you sleep better, wake up more refreshed and alert and may even have a better appetite.

Have you ever thought about why that is the case? Many people think that it is because outdoors, the air is "pure" (assuming you are not near a source of industrial pollution). Well let me assure you… IT IS NOT PURE!

Outdoor air, on its own, is full of all kinds of pollution Pollen, dust, odors, germs, viruses, biological impurities such as smoke, decaying vegetable and animal matter, even animal feces particles! GROSS, ISN’T IT! That being the case; Why doeesn't it bother us? Why do we feel so good? Why do we not get sick? Good Questions!

The answer to that is that there is also health in the air! Sounds kind of contradictory doesn’t it?

Our bodies were created to live outdoors. When we first appeared on earth we lived in caves or shelters made of branches and grass. We spent ALL of our time outdoors. The air then, had those same pollutants in it that we discussed above yet we thrived! WHY?

The reason is that NATURE made the air HEALTHY! Nature, using the sun, the wind, moisture in the air, and compounds occurring naturally in the air, ENERGIZES the air and creates Hydroxyl Ions (which are natures atmospheric “scrubbers), positive and negative ions, free hydrogen and other things to cause a series of oxidation and reduction reactions and attack those pollutants and changes them at a molecular level into different, harmless molecules that are commonly found in the air. In addition, this natural action uses those negative ions to cause particles, which are lighter than air and float around in it, to clump together and fall out of the air, so dust, pollen and smoke particles get cleared out of our air fairly quickly.

Fresh air causes us to feel better, heal faster, have more energy and be more mentally alert. It also helps our respiratory systems transfer oxygen into our blood more efficiently. Every organ and system in our body requires an adequate supply of oxygen; our brain uses more than 20% of our available oxygen. Our systems get this oxygen from that which is carried in our blood. Our blood oxygen level needs to be near 100%. When it falls below about 90% it is considered low and down below 80% we are hypoxic and usually end up sick and in the hospital. Since the air has the oxygen in it, and oxygen is vital to our health. It then follows that “HEALTH IS IN THE AIR!”! Fresh, ENERGIZED outdoor air, that is!

There is a problem…. We no longer live outdoors, as a matter of fact; we spend very little time outdoors! The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says that Americans spend nearly 90% of our time indoors!

In an effort to be energy efficient, our building codes, since the early 1970’s, have made our homes and workplace or school buildings virtually airtight. NOT GOOD! The EPA also says that”. “Indoor air is often 5-10 times as polluted as outdoor air. In the worst cases it can be 100 times more polluted”.

We have developed a condition called “Sick Building Syndrome”. This happens when the air inside is not freely exchanged with fresh, energized, outdoor air. The air trapped indoors, rapidly loses its energy and gets stale and “dead feeling”. It loses its access to sunshine, and the naturally occurring compounds found in outdoor air. Mold and mildew often build up in dark, moist places such as heating or air conditioning ducts and under counters etc. Mold spores can cause serious illness in us and our pets.

Our indoor spaces become a breeding ground for germs, viruses and bacteria. The air also loads up with dust, dust mites and allergens and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) which are chemical gases which bleed out from cleaning supplies, furniture, drapes, carpets and a variety of other things. If you have pets, the air also gets pet dander and hair which cause some people allergies. Don’t forget all the odors from cooking, cleaning, those pet odors, etc.

All of this is not exactly new information. We have known about poor indoor air quality (IAQ) for years. There is a whole industry built on trying to “filter” or “purify” your indoor air. Unfortunately, none of that works very well! "Why Not?", you may ask. The reason is that both “filtration” and “purification” are reactive/passive technologies relying on bringing air through a filter or a “purification chamber” to try to “remove” contaminants. Only a very small amount of the air in a room gets drawn through these technologies and a very small amount of the “treated” air gets dispersed into the room.

These devices generally treat only a very small amount of air space, (usually about 150-400 square feet) and that, not very well! In addition, even the small amount of air that goes through even the best HEPA filters only has particles larger than 0.3 microns trapped by the filter. The most dangerous particles and gases pass right through them because they are too small. For example, viruses are often smaller than 0.1 microns. The “purifiers” with their UV light chambers, can destroy many of these small particles if they are exposed to the light for a long enough period of time, but again, only a small amount of the polluted air is drawn into the purification chamber. Also, both technologies require that the filters or the light units be replaced after a certain period of time. This can be an ongoing cost that can be fairly expensive.

So if this doesn’t work, and given that we spend so much time indoors in a polluted environment, What Are We Supposed to Do?

There is a Solution!

Remember… Health is in the Air! The solution is NOT to try to take pollutants and pathogens out of the air; as discussed, that just doesn’t work. The answer is to make it act like OUTDOOR air! To Naturalize It! What do we mean by that?

Well, a dictionary definition of “naturalize” is “To make like Nature”. Remember, that Mother Nature doesn’t try to eliminate particles of pollution, she neutralizes them! Nature, using sun, wind, moisture in the air and naturally occurring compounds found in the air, ENERGIZES the air and creates components that seek out and change pollutants at the molecular level into different, harmless compounds and molecules.

A company called AirRestore has created a technology called Organic Air Technology and a product called the Air Naturalizer™ Tempest which electronically replicates what nature does outdoors. Using its Ionic Engine it creates the components including hydroxyls, positive and negative ions, and others to restore the ENERGY into the air to reduce or oxidize pollutants as necessary and cause the particulates to fall out of the air.

“Air Naturalizer Restores the Energy to Indoor Air to Make it Act Like Fresh, Healthy Outdoor Air”!

Hundreds of people who use the AirRestore product have said things like “When the Air Naturalizer Tempest is used in your indoor air, it will help you sleep better, feel better, breathe better, be more alert, and tame your allergies” They also testify that it is extremely effective in removing odors of all kinds.

It has been tested to kill germs, viruses and bacteria in the air and on surfaces!

Anecdotal testimonies from hundreds have users claim that using Air Naturalizer has stopped their allergies, helped them breathe better, kept them from getting colds or flu when they have been “thoroughly exposed”, and helped them sleep better and feel better.

Air Naturalizer is NOT an air filter or an air purifier. It is far too advanced for that! It does not use filters, or “purifying chambers” to try to remove unwanted particles from the air. It changes them just like nature does. It Energizes and Naturalizes your indoor air!

Air Naturalizer is designed to be a discreet and customizable system. It can be a single unit that treats up to 800 square feet, or a two unit Studio Pack covering up to 1600 square feet, which is ideal for an apartment or a condo, or it can be a Whole Home System covering up to 3200 square feet.
