I know you spent a small fortune on tuition, books, laptops, mini fridges and
meal plans, but what did you buy for your student's health? Don't forget,
college is about mind and body. You've got to provide the best

experience. That even includes the air around them.
Keep reading to learn how a few plants will help protect your
precious little investment.
What's happening!
Have You Cleaned Your Air Today?
NASA once reported that astronauts were having a problem with poor air quality
on space missions. Through numerous experiments in a two-year study, scientists
not only concluded that houseplants were by far the best way to cleanse the
air, but they were astonished at how efficient they were in performing the
task. So, how does it work? Through photosynthesis, plants take in carbon
dioxide and give off oxygen. During this process, they also absorb toxins,
mold, and bacteria that are eventually deposited in the soil or stored in the
plant’s cells. The end-result is not only cleaner air, but also higher levels
of oxygen, which improves brain function. Today, houseplants ride on every
space mission. If plants are the best way to cleanse the air for NASA, imagine
the benefits for your office, home or dorm room!
Is this not an amazing product of nature! I'm not talking about some altered,
mutated, genetic phenomenon -- this is all natural! Sometimes the most advanced
discoveries are just realizing that the answer is already right in front of
you. Think about this: In today's world, with all of its technological
advances, scientific studies and specialization, the best way for NASA to
cleanse the air in a space ship is to incorporate plants. Does that not say it
all?
What a great present a blooming, healthy plant would be for your favorite
college student. Your child or grandchild would think you are giving them a
gift to make the dorm room or apartment feel more like home, and you will know
you are giving them air freer of toxins and an increased oxygen level enabling
them to think better. Wait a minute; maybe we all need more houseplants!
