A recent story in the L.A. Times reports on two different ailments, appendicitis and ear infections, with one thing in common; air pollution.
In a study by the Canadian Medical Assn. researchers studied the records of about five thousand appendicitis patients and found that the risk of appendicitis more than doubled when summer pollution was at its highest.
In the ear infection study, researchers presented at the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Conference in San Diego, and found that when the four major pollutants-carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrous dioxide and particulate matter-decreased nationwide over a ten year period, the number of children having more than 3 ear infections also declined.
Either study canʼt conclusively state that air pollution causes the above health problems only that there is some connection between the two.
According to the EPA, indoor air pollution is a greater health threat than all environmental problems because people spend almost 90 percent of their time indoors. Infants, small children, the elderly and the immunocompromised are at an even greater risk.
In order to mitigate indoor air pollution there are steps you can take.
First, eliminate the source. Second, try and improve ventilation but make sure it is a dry clear day. Third, utilize Caricoʼs Nutri Tech Air Purification System. This very useful small appliance circulates clean air in the areas you need it most. At the heart of the 10 stage filtering cartridge is a HEPA filter which is what most hospitals use.
My 7 year old child has allergies and almost every morning after waking up he would sneeze a lot and would have watery eyes and runny nose for the next two to three hours. He was miserable! After I purchased the Carico air filter I noticed that he rarely would do the usual morning sneezes and sniffles. Very seldom that he would sneeze or blow his nose in the mornings now.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable! So now, I would place the Carico air filter in his room when he goes to sleep and would turn it off after a few hours. Thank God a solution has been found for my child's lingering health problem. I am so happy with this air filter.
Another reason that I am very happy with the air filter is the fact that it can remove odor effectively. I was frying fish in the kitchen one day and I placed the air filter in the kitchen, and to my surprise, the odor of fried fish disappeared after an hour or so. Also, my husband bought this car with a little hint of cigarette smell. He placed the Carico air filter inside for a few hours for two days and the smell disappeared. I don't smell it anymore everytime I enter the car.
I am positively and excitedly endorsing this product to others who have the same problems as mine and I know without a doubt that you will get the same results that I got from using the Carico air filter.
I bought Carico Air Purifier a few months ago and it happens to be the best choice I've made. It works wonderful for me: I don't suffer from de asthma synthoms any more... It is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe enviroment inside my house is clear and pure.
I recommend Carico to everyone.
