What Ion-Balanced Air Can Do for Your Wellbeing
Indoor air often carries more pollutants than the air outside.
As the world becomes more polluted, you may be thinking that spending more time inside your house will help you stay away from the harmful environmental pollutants.
Unfortunately, this is not the case. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air pollutants are between two to five times more harmful than typical outdoor concentrations. For a complete walkthrough of ventilation, VOCs, and particle sources, start with the Indoor Air Quality guide.
Because Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors, having a Plasma Air Purifier could help you achieve optimal health.
The only question is, what can a plasma air purifier do to help you improve your air quality? You want to ensure you are living the healthiest life possible, so what can the plasma do to enhance your well-being?
Here is what the Breathe Safe® Plasma Air Purifier does and how it can enhance your health.
To appreciate why the Breathe Safe Plasma air purifier can help with your health, it is important to understand what harmful toxins it is protecting you from.
Indoor air quality is the overall quality of the air inside your home, schools, offices, and any building you enter. Due to many changes in infrastructure, building materials, and external materials, the concentrations of indoor air pollutants have skyrocketed.
These environmental changes cause us to constantly inhale increasing amounts of volatile organic compounds, mold, dust, bacteria, and chemicals without even knowing it.
Typical indoor pollutants include:
It is unfortunate that even products consumers purchase for the purpose of making the air cleaner and fresher, such as plug-ins with scented oils, make the air quality worse by introducing more chemicals. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) performed a test in 1991 that found many fragrance chemicals used in these types of air purifiers can be toxic, including acetone, benzaldehyde, benzyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, camphor, ethanol, ethyl acetate, limonene, linalool, and methylene chloride. Glade air fresheners, for example, can contain the ingredients Paraffin and Butylated Hydroxyanisole, which are listed on the Health and Human Services list of Human Carcinogens.
Regrettably, it doesn't stop at the indoor pollutants as there are a lot of outdoor air contaminants leaking into buildings, as well.
The most common outdoor contaminants that have been found inside buildings include:
There is no way to avoid these pollutants from coming in, so the most important action you could take for your health is to clean the air that gets into your house.
You may be thinking that if you could remove what is causing the pollutants, and clean a bit more, then you wouldn't need to get an air purifier. Unfortunately, this couldn't be further from the truth.
The pollutants are not only in removable areas within your building, but they are also coming from outdoors through your ventilation system. There are no ventilation systems that can prevent this leak of air pollutants, the only thing that will help is a Plasma air purifier.
Pollutants also come in through open doors, windows, and cracks in building structures. It is unavoidable due to the air-exchange rates, weather changes, climate, and lifestyle.
All of these off-gasses, organic volatile chemicals, electronics, and chemicals produce a lot of extra positive ions to free flow throughout the air you breathe.
While most things with the word 'positive' in life are good for you, when it comes to ions, it can have the opposite effect.
A high concentration of positive ions can contribute to many negative aspects of health, including:
Essentially, positive ions are one of the negative contributing factors of mankind. The environment that we currently live in has massive amounts of more positive ions than what our ancestors were used to. The good news is that in small amounts, and in combination with mass quantities of negative ions, positive ions can help contribute to a healthier lifestyle via a quality plasma air purifier.
The right combination of positive and negative ions can have immense benefits on your health. The Breathe Safe produces only a small amount of positive ions, with an abundance of negative ions for the optimal balance to improve your health. Negative ions are usually found in natural environments near waterfalls, forests, the ocean, and mountains. They help with increasing mood, mental clarity, energy levels, and overall health.
In as little as five minutes, the Breathe Safe machine will produce 23,500,000 ions per cubic centimeter within your vicinity. This occurs within the perfect 5:1 ratio of ions, which is much more effective on our health than just negative ions alone. This ratio contains a blend of 19,100,000 negative ions and 4,400,000 positive ions.
This blend creates an invisible plasma cloud that breaks down contaminants and pulls them towards the floor, breaking their charge. The Breathe Safe air purifier also produces millions of extra negative ions for our bodies to inhale and absorb.
This plasma robs the positive ions of their hydrogen molecules from pathogen protein surfaces, neutralizing their charge, without creating mutations.
This plasma does more than just purify the air, it also cleans surfaces and eliminates bacteria, mold, and pathogens from common surfaces. The University of Arizona did a study and discovered that the average work desk has about 400 times more bacteria than a toilet seat. You just can't simply clean these contaminants away, as they will come back.
Lab tests show the Breathe Safe gets rid of 46.1 percent bacteria, 99.68 percent particulates, 86.4 percent volatile organic compounds, benzenes, all the formaldehyde, and everything else from the paint, furniture, carpet, and much more.
According to the Journal of American College of Cardiology, recent research discovered the relation between air particulate pollution and carotid artery disease. Researchers in the same field continue to study how cleaner indoor air relates to blood pressure, lung function, and overall wellness — one more reason to pay attention to what you breathe every day.
The problem with most air purifiers is that they cost multiple hundreds of dollars, plus they are much too large to place in the home. Thankfully, the Breathe Safe air purifier is so small and compact that it can fit in any size apartment, office space, car, and even saunas.
Anyone who pays careful attention to their breathing has extra reason to keep purified air close at hand throughout the day.
Saunas used to be known for the relaxation, circulation, and detoxification benefits, yet now they are known for a multitude of beneficial health benefits, especially when paired with a negative ion boost.
Sauna therapy started in Finland, which was also where the discovery of how negative ions boosted the sauna effects occurred. People instantly felt calm when water was splashed on the hot rocks within the sauna, which studies discovered generates a large number of negative ions.
By placing the Breathe Safe air purifier in your sauna, you will experience a much more efficient detoxification experience. The Breathe Safe® Sauna ION Generator is the version built for exactly this pairing. Additionally, if you inhale 20,000 ions per cubic centimeter while in a sauna, you can double your sweat volume! The ions also help you to withstand the heat stress within the sauna.
Breathwork exercises have been taking the world by storm as of lately. Benefits include boosted immunity, more creativity, deeper consciousness, better breathing ability, processed emotions, healed emotional pain and traumas, and reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression.
By using the Breathe Safe Plasma air purifier along with your breathwork exercises, you are increasing the amount of oxygen in your personal space. In independent laboratory testing, this device raised measured oxygen about 17 percent directly above the unit in as little as five minutes.
Not only are you now able to take in more oxygen, but you are also breathing in cleaner oxygen because the plasma has cleaned the air you are doing your breathwork in.
Cleaner air makes any breathwork practice space more inviting, whether you are brand new to the exercises or well seasoned.
There you have it! The positive benefits of using the Breathe Safe plasma air purifier in combination with a healthier lifestyle are beyond incredible.
By using the plasma air purifier in your home, office, or business, you are not only more likely to breathe safer and more efficiently, but you are also giving every space where you spend time cleaner, fresher air.

I test what I sell. When a unit lands on my bench I run it myself and watch how it behaves, because a spec sheet is only a starting point and I would rather see a thing work in front of me than read about it.
That is how I came to know the Breathe Safe. When I tested it, I remember the words coming out of my own mouth — “But this little gizmo, when I tested it...” The enthusiasm came after the testing, not before it, and for me that is the right order.
It is simply how I am built. I like knowing something for myself, with my own hands and my own eyes, rather than taking a piece of paper’s word for it.
In as little as five minutes, the Breathe Safe produces 23,500,000 ions per cubic centimeter within your vicinity — a 5:1 ratio blending 19,100,000 negative ions with 4,400,000 positive ions, which is much more effective than negative ions alone.
According to the EPA, indoor air pollutants are between two to five times more harmful than typical outdoor concentrations, and Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors. Pollutants enter through ventilation systems, open doors, windows, and cracks in building structures, so cleaning the air that gets inside is the most practical step you can take.
The ion blend creates an invisible plasma cloud that breaks down contaminants and pulls them toward the floor, breaking their charge. Negative ions are the same ions found in natural environments near waterfalls, forests, the ocean, and mountains, where they help with increasing mood, mental clarity, energy levels, and overall health.
Yes. The unit is so small and compact that it can fit in any size apartment, office space, car, and even saunas. Sauna tradition supports the pairing: splashing water on hot sauna rocks generates a large number of negative ions, and if you inhale 20,000 ions per cubic centimeter while in a sauna, you can double your sweat volume.
