The importance of ventilation to patients with asthma can't be overstated, especially within the house.
Asthma sufferers are particularly vulnerable to the irritants found in stuffy, dry indoor air. The air quality in your home declines as a result of the release of chemical vapors from HVAC systems, household cleaning products, and gadgets.
The good news is that the common house plant is an easy and inexpensive method to enhance the air quality in your home, making it more hospitable for people with asthma and allergies. Houseplants are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, since they remove common airborne pollutants and replenish lost humidity in the home.
Listed here are some asthma-safe plants:
This plant needs very little light, so you may keep it in a dark corner of your home and only water it once per week. Be in mind that Peace Lily leaves, when consumed in excessive amounts, are somewhat poisonous to people and animals.
This plant thrives in bright light but can survive in low-light conditions for long periods of time. However, it is important to remember that it will soon decay if the soil is too wet. Keep your dogs away from this plant as well, as it contains toxins if swallowed.
Benzene, formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene are all filtered out of the air by English ivy.
As it thrives in partial shade and direct sunlight, bamboo palms make great houseplants.
Care for an Areca Palm by placing it in a spot with bright, indirect sunshine. They thrive on soil that is kept evenly wet throughout the year, but somewhat drier in the winter and spring.
