What are the positive effects of Negative Ions?
Ions are atoms or molecules that have lost or gained electrons [Free radicals are unpaired electrons]. If the atoms or molecules lose electrons, they become positively charged ions. If they gain electrons, they become negatively charges ions. Physiologically, the presence of negative ions in a sweat bath is as important as the heat. Research has shown that an abundance of negative ions in the air we breathe is highly beneficial, while a lack of ions or a higher ratio of positive to negative can cause physical harm. Scientists have found that if the air is charged with too few negative ions and too many positives, we become anxious, fatigued and tense.
