Humidifiers and essential oils (like scented VapoPads) can help you and your family stay healthy during the cold season. Prevention: During winter, the air inside your home can become dryer, due to the heating and the cold air outside. This can lead to irritated throat and nasal passages, which can let you more vulnerable to winter illness. Humidifiers add moisture into the air you breathe, and allow to keep your throat and nasal passages hydrated. Cough & cold season: The right humidity level helps easy breathing and favorizes a more comfortable and restful sleep. Reduction of viruses survival: Maintaining a humidity level between 40-60 per cent can reduce the survival of viruses.* This means less opportunity for them to spread to the other members of your family and keep them healthy. *Environmental Health 2010, 9:55 Reduce The Survival of Flu Viruses For better indoor comfort: Research shows that maintaining an indoor humidity level between 40-60 per cent can reduce the survival of flu viruses on surfaces and in the air (Environmental Health 2010, 9:55). Use a humidity monitor to know when and where to use a humidifier in your home to get the best level of moisture for you and your family.
