Surprisingly, many people suffer with these symptoms not realizing that they are allergy related and can be easily prevented. As equally harmful to our health as the particles circulating in our homes, are volatile organic compounds or VOC's. There are up to 500 of these gases widely scattered from cleaning solutions, carpets, building materials and several other common chemicals we use in our homes. Among the chief concerns is Formaldehyde, a chemical that has been so widely used and has been associated with itching eyes, ears and throat. An even greater concern is its implication as a carcinogenic.
Awareness is the first step in prevention.
Avoid known risk factors by using fewer aerosol products. Control known sources of contaminants by carefully choosing your furnishings, carpeting, and insulation materials. When you have taken steps to control the sources you can then take combative measures to positively eliminate indoor air pollution. The Only Air Cleaning System Accepted by the Medical and Scientific Communities is True HEPA Medium for Particles and the Combination of Activated Carbon and Natural Zeolite For Gases. Its rounded corners and protection from electrical exposure make it a safe companion for children and pets.
