When it comes to your health, the basics matter most: movement, food, water, and air.  Air quality is probably the one people think the least about, but it’s one of the most important.  You can go months without movement, weeks without food, days without water, but only minutes without air. Most people aren’t aware, but air quality in your home is a serious health issue.

It’s estimated that at least 47% of American homes have toxic mold in them. Some reports give numbers up to 70%!

Mycotoxins from mold are devastating for your entire system, especially if you’re over 50. The problem is that it looks like all kinds of other things, so it’s almost never properly diagnosed.

Here are just a few of the ways mold toxicity can show up:

  • Respiratory Issues
  • Fatigue and Weakness
  • Cognitive Impairment (memory problems, brain fog, difficulty concentrating)
  • Headaches and Migraines
  • Skin Irritation
  • Sinus Problems
  • Digestive Issues
  • Muscle and Joint Pain
  • Mood Changes

Air quality matters. A lot. I spent a lot of time and energy researching the best air purifier. You have to be careful because there’s a bunch of strange Chinese knock-off brands that have flooded the market (especially on Amazon).

I know an air purifier probably isn’t high on anybody’s “wish list”, but unlike the next smartphone or new shoes, this makes a profound difference in your health, your state of mind, and quality of life. We all spend a lot more time indoors in these colder winter months. You’re getting a LOT less fresh air.

Take care of yourself. Take care of your loved ones. And remember to breathe deep. It’ll go a long way in helping you enjoy “the best performance of your life!” which is what we’re all about at ProActive Wellness for all those living in Danville, IL and surrounding communities.
