1. Aloe Vera
The aloe vera plant has multiple benefits that range from medicine to skincare and beauty. For instance, it’s known to treat lung diseases and boost immunity.
But this lovely plant also works as an air purifier by absorbing dangerous pollutants known as VOCs from your indoor space, removing carbon dioxide, and providing a lot of oxygen back into the air.
For example, xylene is one of the top 30 toxic compounds produced in the US and is known to affect the lungs, among many other negative effects. Well, the aloe vera plant does a pretty good job of removing it from indoor air. It’s typically found in solvents, paint thinners, and varnishes inside the house.
Aloe vera not only keeps your lungs healthy, but it’s also low-maintenance and doesn’t require a lot of water.
