Re: Negative ion

[Guest guest]

Jane,

You don't offend me, that's okay. Ozone can cause lung irritation and is

dangerous. I was really getting at the negative ion. I have never heard anyone

mention that. It just so happened that many of the research articles correlate

them together. Each has it's own place. They all do mention that Ozone as we

know can be irritating. But, if it is irritating to you then you are receiving

to much. I am not endorsing ozone at all. Just how the 2 work together or on

their own. I found the negative ion to be extremely interesting. There are NO

ill effects of negative ion from all the articles I have read.

It's kinda like mold. Some believe some don't. Some try some don't. Some are

just stuck on " NO. " And that's okay.

I changed the subject maybe that will be better. Don't want to confuse anyone

into thinking I am endorsing using ozone, or that it good to use.

Re: [] Negative ion vs ozone

I do not want to stir up anything regarding ozone but I find that for me since

I have so much asthma, ozonated spaces are verboten. This may be just me so I do

not mean to offend anyone. Heck I wish I could ozone my space and then things

might be better. Go for it if you can.

the group. I am not starting this debate up again. Just wanted to mention I have

NEVER had time to research it. So, about 2 weeks ago thought I'd do an indepth

search and research, because a doctor told me that negative ion and the proper

amount of ozone in your home is essential to good health and mood, and good air

quality. Which surprised me he would even have a clue. Then I thought he was

nutz because all I have heard is how bad ozone is for you.

So I have been researching it and am amazed at the imformation and studies

that are out there. It does seem that these are very essential to good health,

mood and indoor air quality. Especially if your home is closed up or insulated

well w/the heat or A/C running.

From what I have been able to find negative ion is good and doesn't need to

monitored, and should be present when running your A/C. Ozone of course as we

all know can do damage to the lungs. But, it seems that it also benefits the

lungs if in the proper amounts.

As with anything we all have to do our own research and make our own

decisions. I have just heard ozone talked about so much (all the negative) that

I thought I'd investigate and learn myself. Still researching it but found it

very interesting.

The one thing I found to be very interesting was this. I have heard it

mentioned here how we all feel better when by the water. Someone here was living

in the mountains and said they felt awesome when there. It has to do w/the fact

that there is so much more negative ion and ozone in those area's than say the

city. The negative ion is a mood stimulant because it reduces the serotonin

released into our bodies. Like sunlight reduces melatonin. If you deplete or

don't have enough negative ion it increases the seratonin so that you enter a

depression stage, fatigue, drowsiness, anxiety. Plus, there is a ton of other

stuff they are good for.

Well I know everyone is sitting there stunned that I actually have gotten this

scientific today. LOL But, I just thought it was actually something that

everyone might want to learn about, being we are here because of unhealthy

evnironments. If I found it interesting thought someone here might.
