San Francisco Plant Maintenance
According to the Salem News, “Thanks to breakthroughs in medicine and nutrition in recent years, we are living longer than ever before. But this increase in life expectancy also brings an increase in the number of diseases, injuries, and impairments.” Why live longer if you allow your environment to make you ill. That’s why indoor plants are our favorite way to live healthier, says The Plant Escape, the San Francisco Plant Maintenance company.
Plants are our friends. As they go through their cycle of life, plants turn carbon dioxide into oxygen, and in the process, remove pollutants and toxins from the air. Cigarette smoke, household cleaning chemicals, off-gases from building materials, and dust and pollens are all filtered out by houseplants as they release healthy oxygen into the air. Not only is the air quality in a room filled with plants healthier, but the reduction in irritants can help prevent itchy eyes, headaches, and even asthma flareups.
Salem News said, “… rooms containing houseplants clean the air you breathe with up to 60 percent fewer molds and bacteria than rooms with no plants, making the air safer to breathe. In addition, other studies indicate that illnesses related to the common cold are reduced by more than 30 percent thanks to houseplants. Indoor plants add moisture to the air, which increases the room’s humidity and prevents respiratory issues and sore, dry throats.”
What Kind of Plants Should You Buy or Rent
Plants that are especially good at purifying the air include the Ficus, the Peace Lilly, the Boston Fern, and English Ivy. Succulents such as Jade Plant, Aloe Vera, and Snake Plant purify the air and produce oxygen all night long, which can result in better breathing and better sleep when they are placed in a bedroom or on a nightstand.
Lavender, basil, and jasmine are all fragrant indoor plants whose smells can liven up a room and elevate the mood of its occupants. This is especially true in the cold months of winter when we feel trapped inside. In warmer weather, you can bring the flowers and plants inside from an outdoor garden to liven up a room.
