Air Moisture And Your Health

By Duane Johnson

Having clean air to breathe is not just a luxury and many people are learning about the various ways to improve air quality when they are indoors. One of the methods to help improve air quality is the use of humifiers and dehumidifiers to control the moisture in the air. Air moisture may not be something that you thought a lot about, but it could be a large contributing factor to the negative symptoms that you experience at times.

That means then that air moisture can be a very important factor in comfort when you are indoors and can also significantly contribute to your overall health as well. Consider the following health issues and how it relates to air moisture:

Many allergy sufferers have a severe allergic reaction to mold in the are or on surfaces and fabrics around them. This mold issue is usually directly tied to the amount of moisture that is present in the air in that space. By reducing the air moisture content the mold allergy can often be brought under manageable control. High humidity at high temperatures can also sometimes lead to heat exhaustion or heat stroke in extreme cases. And dust mites that often trigger allergy attacks begin to die off when the humidity level drops below 50%.

On the flip side, when the air is too dry people can be uncomfortable and can suffer from dry mucus membranes which can lead to nosebleeds and infections. Low humidity can also aggravate the symptoms of asthma at times.

A good way to track air moisture indoors is to get a digital hygrometer to actually monitor the humidity in the air. It’s a simple gadget to read and the information it produces can be invaluable.

You see most people feel comfortable at 45-50% humidity between 68-72 degrees. That is considered the optimal comfort zone. Some variance on either side of the optimum zone is fine, but wide fluctuations can be hard on your health. If the humidity level falls below 30% you should turn on an air humidifier to help put moisture back. If the moisture level consistently rises above 60% in your home, you should employ a dehumidifier or air conditioner to reduce the moisture level.

How Bad Breath Affects Your Self-Esteem

By Ted Kushner

As a long time sufferer of bad breath (halitosis) I can still remember the day my girlfriend told me I had ‘puppy breath’. As affectionate as that may sound, I knew what she really meant was that I had bad breath. Being somewhat shy in the first place, this only compounded my lack of confidence and made me totally aware of my breath problem from that day on.

Rarely was there a date from then on that I didn’t have a supply of mints, gum, or some other type of breath altering product available to me. My bad breath was consuming me during my dates with my girlfriend, or being in close contact with anyone else for that matter.

If you are one of the millions of sufferers of chronic bad breath then I’m sure you can relate to me. And I’m not alone. According to the ADA, it is estimated that there are over 27 million people in the United States alone that suffer from chronic halitosis. That doesn’t include anyone who only suffers from bad breath occasionally.

Bad breath has become an epidemic that affects both young and old, but could be especially devastating to teens and pre-teens as they cope with a whole array of pre-adolescent problems.

What causes bad breath can be attributed to a wide variety of underlying issues including, poor oral hygiene, gingivitis, bleeding gums, dry mouth, periodontal disease, tooth decay, or one of many other health related problems including sinus infections, diabetes, and even cancer patients undergoing treatments.

If you’re like me then you probably have been just trying to mask the symptoms all these years as you could never find a permanent solution to eliminating the symptoms that have been
causing it in the first place. But by masking the symptoms you may actually be compounding the exact problem that may have been causing your bad breath all along by not treating it.

But did you know that you can effectively treat bad breath and cure it naturally and fast? There are some excellent products online that can give you the resources to combat the symptoms
and eliminate your problem in as little as a few days.
