Clean your indoor air with houseplants
from Today’s Gut Health Tip · host The Guud Company
We are all spending our time at home and much of that time is indoors, especially if we are working from home. Consider getting a few houseplants to help to clean the air in your home. Remember that new furniture and carpeting will off gas (leak toxic chemicals in the air) They also release phytochemicals, which suppress mold spores and bacteria in the air. They add humidity, too, helping to counter the dry air of centrally-heated houses which will be great once fall comes around. You can buy plants relatively cheaply. I bought big floor plants at my local grocer for about $20 each. If that is too steep you can always ask a friend for a cutting from their plants. Spider plants often have off-shoots that you can replant and grow.
