Cleaner Air Found to Add 5 Months to Life
The cleaner the air you breathe, the longer you will live. Brigham Young University researchers recently examined the effects of air quality improvements on health in 51 metropolitan areas from the 1980s to the 1990s.
They found, after variable controls, that life expectancy increased by an average of two years and eight months in areas studied. The study, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, further estimated that five months is the increase that can be attributed solely to improvements in air quality!
Ridding indoor air of toxins and fumes is essential for healthy homes, and an important component for a greener home. EcoQuest's ActivePure Technology™ reduces unhealthy odors and smoke indoors, and kills bacteria, mold, and viruses on surfaces.
