Cleaner Air
Negative ions have been proven to remove the following particles from the air, resulting in healthier living conditions and reduction in odors:
- Bacteria
- Toxic chemicals, including VOCs
- Smoke
- Dust and Dust Mites
- Dead Skin
- Pollens
- Insect Feces
- Mold Spores
- Animal/Pet Dander
Health Benefits
Negative ions have been linked to increased alertness and a general feeling of well-being by many studies. Toyota's study showed it reduced fatigue in drivers, while Columbia University's study suggested that negative ions might be more effective than Prozac or Zoloft at reducing depression.- Increased Alertness
- Reduced Fatigue
- Reduced Asthma and Allergy Symptoms
- Improves Sleep
- Reduces Migraine Headaches
Benefits of Full Spectrum Lighting
In several studies, well-being is linked to the amount of natural sunshine a person is exposed to. Sunlight stimulates the Endocrine system, which is connected to our immune and nervous systems, creating a favorable hormonal balance. Indoors, full spectrum lighting fills in the missing portion of the sun's spectrum, creating a more pleasing, brighter light while duplicating the visible wavelengths of sunlight at noon and producing higher contrast for clearer vision.How It Works
IonLites remove particles from the air. Most particles that "float" in the air are positively charged. These particles act as large "rafts" for toxic chemicals and disease organisms--not the kind of thing you want to breathe.Negative ions are attracted to this positive charge like the opposing poles of a magnet. When the negative ion gives up its charge to the particle, it becomes attracted to other positively-charged particles in the air, forming masses that are too heavy to remain suspended.
Alertness and Well-Being
Some studies have linked negative ions to the production of serotonin in the brain, a critical neurochemical. Negative ions are found in nature after a storm, in sea spray, and at the base of waterfalls. City and suburban life typically have few of these mechanisms to produce negative ions.Warning
Many ionizers put dangerous levels of Ozone into the air. IonLite generates 3 times less (.018ppm) than the allowable concentration of Ozone (.05ppm) standard set by the UL and US Government.Links to Studies
