For many people, our homes are our comfort zones. A place where we feel protected and calm. However, the danger does not always come from outside. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) , approximately 90% of the world's population breathes polluted air. The main sources of indoor air pollution are combustion products (heating, household appliances, tobacco), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and aerosols. These pollutants can cause health problems such as allergies, respiratory infections, cardiovascular diseases and cancers. In fact, the air in your home is 2 to 5 times more polluted than outside. Chemicals, candles, wall outlets, dust, many pollutants degrade air quality. Such as phthalates, parabens, formaldehyde and others according to the Government of Canada website .

Here are 5 tips to combat indoor air pollution and improve the air quality at home:

1. Ventilate each room every day for about 15 minutes to renew the indoor air and reduce the concentration of pollutants. Yes, open the windows even if it's cold! You can also use cleaning products without chemical ingredients such as natural cleaning products and more ecological heating and air conditioning methods.
   
   
2. Avoid perfumes and industrial scents. The ingredients are very often harmful to us. For example, diethyl phthalate is a component used in perfumes and is harmful to health. Avoid candles. Did you know that lighting a candle is the same as smoking a cigarette indoors 🤯!
   
   
3. Diffuse natural essential oils. They help purify the air without pollutants since they serve as antiseptics and antimicrobials protecting us from infections according to Diane LeBlanc , aromatherapist.
   
   

   Here are 3 of them that allow air purification:

4. Don't let anyone bring your shoes in. We definitely don't want to bring germs from outside into our homes and pollute our air!

5. Buy plants. Plants purify the air: chrysanthemums, for example, are champions at purifying the air of all kinds of pollutants, according to NASA .

It is important to feel comfortable at home while being aware of what we breathe and what surrounds us by avoiding polluted air.

The easiest way is obviously to open the windows. In winter, it is more difficult for us to ventilate, especially in Quebec 🥶

While in summer, mosquitoes, spiders and other insects that find refuge in our living room can be unpleasant for some.
