Plants to improve indoor air quality
Here are the top 5 plants to improve indoor air quality within your home and office space!
Areca Palms: Areca Palms clean the air especially well. Due to their 60 leaflets, they can filter airborne particles.
Peppermint: Mint can increase your alertness and enhance your memory, according to a study in the International Journal of Neuroscience.
English Ivy: English ivy is effective at absorbing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), mold spores, and airborne pollutants spread by computers and other common office machinery. These pollutants are known to cause headaches and nausea.
Lemon Balm: Studies show that lemon scents improved people’s moods and raised their levels of norepinephrine, the chemical in our brains linked to mood and behavior.
Golden Pothos: Researchers found that this robust vine reduces indoor ozone. Low ozone levels, like those emitted by printers and copiers, can cause irritation of the throat, and chest pain in particularly sensitive individuals.
