Negative Ions

"Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that we inhale in abundance in certain environments. Think mountains, waterfalls, and beaches."

The human body is surrounded by ions; therefore the function of electrons inside and outside the cells has significant influence on the human body. It makes the body strong if good ions are taken. When the amount of negative electric Ions contained one c.c. of air inhaled reaced 5,000 to 50,000, it strengthens the body resistance and immunity; and when the amount of negative electric ions contained in one c.c. of air reached 100,000 to 500,000, it relieves illnesses. Negatively Charged Electric Ions in our body are essential in sustaining and improving our health. Whereas 85% of the Negative Electric Ions are absorbed from our skin, only 15% is inhaled and absorbed through our lungs.

Negative ions are beneficial to human body in four major ways:

• Strengthen the functions of autonomic nerves
• Reinforces collagen (tissues that are resilient and tension-related)
• Improves the permeability of the cell's prototype plasma membranes (improves metabolism)
• Strengthens the body's immune system

Negative ions neutralize pollutants and provide positive effects on health to

• Stimulate the reticulo-endothelial system, a group of defense cells in our bodies that marshal our resistance to disease
• Act on our capacity to absorb and utilize oxygen.
• Negative ions in the bloodstream accelerate the delivery of oxygen to our cells and tissues .
• Speed up oxidation of serotonin (5-hydroxtryptamine) in the blood.

Numerous studies have established the effect of Negative Charged Ion environment on the human body. The negative charged environment has stimulated the body's own healing mechanism in the case of stress and specific physical problems.

Increase blood flow with resultant increased oxygen-carrying capacity, both of which are basic to help the body healing itself;

Changes in migration of calcium ions which can either bring calcium ions to heal a broken bone in half the usual time, or can help move calcium away from painful, arthritic joints.

The pH balance (acid/alkaline) of various body fluids. (Often out of balance in conjunction with illness or abnormal conditions)

Hormone production from the endocrine glands can be either increased or decreased by Negative Ion stimulation.

Altering of enzyme activity and other bio-chemical processes.
