0 Air quality indoors is one aspect that hugely contributes to good health, especially in cities where pollution levels are higher. Rather than relying on air purifiers alone, let’s let nature take its course. Some houseplants not only decorate your home beautifully but work like natural air filters. Harmful pollutants are removed, and oxygen levels are increased.
Here are five air-purifying plants that can make your home healthier and greener:
1. Areca Palm
Useful for removing carbon monoxide and additional moisture from the air, which is especially helpful in dry climates, the Areca Palm is a popular choice for purifying the quality of air in homes. The airy green leaves also make it a style statement for any space.
2. Snake Plant (Sansevieria)
Snake Plant, or “Mother-in-law’s tongue,” is that very wonderful plant that doesn’t demand much care. It also makes it perfect for the bedroom since it produces oxygen during the night. It also absorbs other noxious chemicals, such as formaldehyde and benzene.
3. Peace Lily
The Peace Lily is one of those beautiful and functional houseplants. It is well known by its toxin-filtering abilities, including ammonia and formaldehyde, which decrease the amount of mold spores in the air. The white blooms make it a decorative addition to your home while promoting a cleaner environment.
4. Spider Plant
The Spider Plant is a low-maintenance variety that makes it ideal for newcomers. It has the ability to remove carbon monoxide and other toxins from indoor air. Its trailing leaves and small offsets make it a beautiful option for shelves or hanging baskets.
5. Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera can be used both for cosmetic purposes and for air purification. It breaks down benzene and formaldehyde but gives out oxygen. Its gel is also said to have healing properties for minor cuts and burns. Thus, here is a practical advantage.
Adding these air-purifying plants to your home is a simple and natural way of improving the quality of the air that surrounds you
