1 Easy Way to Eliminate Headaches, Fatigue, Allergies, & Breathing Problems

What is the one thing that can eliminate headaches, reduce fatigue, reduce or even eradicate allergy symptoms, asthma, and other breathing problems?

Plants.

Yes, good old fashioned plants. 1 out of every 4 Americans have asthma and allergies to their environment, which is most often caused by pollutants and chemical sensitivities. By helping to clean out the body and remove accumulated toxins, your system can repair and eliminate many conditions and symptoms you may currently have.

Watch this engaging, short video and then read on:


Find a quality plant nursery in your area and show up with this list in hand:

FOR THE LIVING ROOM
Areca palm (Chrysalidocarpus lutescens)
Removes CO2 and coverts it into oxygen.
4 shoulder-high palms per person.
Wipe the leaves regularly (daily for polluted cities, once-weekly for cleaner environments). Take the palms outdoors every 3-4 months.

FOR THE BEDROOM
Mother-in-law's Tongue (Sansevieria trifasciata)
Converts CO2 into Oxygen at night.
6-8 waist-high plants per person.

THE GO-ANYWHERE AIR SPECIALIST
Money Plant (Epipremnum aureum)
Removes Formaldehyde & other volatile chemicals.

OTHER PLANTS WITH HIGH REMOVAL RATES OF AIR POLLUTANTS AND VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS (VOCs): **
Hemigraphis alternata (purple waffle plant)
Hedera helix (English ivy)
Hoya carnosa (variegated wax plant)
Asparagus densiflorus (Asparagus fern)
Tradescantia pallida (Purple heart plant)


And don't forget, pollutants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exist in our air AND water. If you suffer from breathing problems, not only should you pick up the plants mentioned above, but look into purchasing a quality water filtration unit for your home, shower, or sink. I personally recommend Environmental Water Systems and have my own whole-home water system for filtering chlorine, pesticides, gasoline, and other harmful chemicals out of the water I shower in and drink.

Remember that chlorine is one of the most harmful substances to our lungs and skin, and is the thought to be one of the causes for the rise in asthma, eczema, psoriasis, and other lung and skin conditions. Filter it out of your water and improve your air quality and you will be 100% better.
