What are negative ions? (And why are they good for me?
Negative Ions are negatively charged air particles that your body wants to breathe! Clean fresh air is negatively charged – you find it at places we like to vacation, such as mountains, beaches, waterfalls, national parklands… These happy air molecules help support your immune system and your respiratory system. Negative ions also have been shown to help lift mood, alleviate depressions and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Most indoor spaces and even outdoor spaces in urban areas, are almost all positive ions, which are not so good for you. Things such as power lines, heavy equipment, and car emissions create a lot of positive ions which contribute to asthma, allergies and other chronic sinus and respiratory conditions. Migun Mini-mats and Healthy Mats are a great solution to urban air!
