Re: Negative ion vs ozone

[Guest guest]

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.

a very debated subject here on 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.
