5 Fantastic Health Benefits of Clean Air

You have probably heard a lot of talk about air quality in the last few years, concerning both the environment in which we live and the air we breathe in homes, commercial premises and public buildings. But why is the quality of the air we breathe so important? What are the health benefits of clean air that we can look forward to enjoying if we take steps to improve the air quality in our homes and workplaces in the UK?

 

5 Top Health Benefits of Clean Air

There are many health benefits associated with breathing cleaner air. Below, we have listed what we believe to be 5 of the most important.

 

A Healthier Stomach

The quality of the air we breathe is very important to the muscles in our digestive systems. These muscles need a good supply of clean, fresh oxygen to keep working as intended, moving food along the large and small intestines and breaking it up in the process.

Healthier Lungs

Our lungs act as a filter for the air that we breathe on a daily basis. The cleaner the air, the less likely it is that our lungs will become clogged with impurities that may cause serious issues in the future.

Fewer Allergy Symptoms

Many people are allergic to dust mites and their symptoms are exacerbated by unfiltered air in homes and offices. By increasing the quality of the air in our homes and workplaces we can reduce the frequency and severity of the symptoms they experience.

Elevated Moods

One of the less obvious but nonetheless important health benefits of clean air is an improvement in our moods. If there is not enough oxygen in the air or it is not clean enough, this can negatively impact our bodies’ serotonin production and potentially cause depressed moods.

Longer Lives

Perhaps the most important health benefit that we can look forward to as a consequence of breathing cleaner air is a longer life. Many of the respiratory conditions that cause premature deaths are linked to poor air quality.
