Top 10 Negative Ion Benefits for Your Health

How do Elanra Ionisers work?

---

Elanra’s negative ion generators work by using a method called ‘corona discharge’, which is actually modeled on the way lightning occurs.

A tiny current of electrons flow down a needle to its point. The nearer the electrons come to the needlepoint, the closer they are forced together. Since electrons naturally repel each other, when they reached the very tip of the needle they are forced off into the nearest air molecule and become a negative ion. This is part of our internationally patented technology that not only makes us unique, but allows our Ionisers to work on a molecular level, thus assisting with overall health and wellbeing.

So what can Elanra Ionisers do for you?

There are highlighted links to references if you would like to read the relevant scientific research, but for a handy summary here are the top 10 health benefits of negative ions

1. 1. Negative ions increase your sense of well-being and mental clarity by removing the debilitating effects of excessive positive ions in your environment.
   2. Negative ionizers are have demonstrated to clear the air of dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores and other potential allergens.
   3. A good negative ion generator can significantly decrease airborne viruses and bacteria in your home.
   4. Improves the function of the cilia in your respiratory tract that protect your lungs from irritation and inflammation, thus leading to less instances of respiratory illnesses like colds and flu and even hayfever and asthma.
   5. Negative ionizers have a relaxing effect and have been reported to normalize your breathing rate, decrease blood pressure and relieve tension.
   6. Studies show high levels of negative ions can be as effective at treating Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) as commonly prescribed antidepressants (obviously discuss any medication changes with your doctor).
   7. Improved energy levels and focus. Research at the University of California showed negative ions normalise serotonin levels in the brain, potentially improving a person’s positive outlook and mood.
   8. Better sleep. A French study found using negative ionizers could help you to sleep better. This is once again due to their positive effects in normalizing serotonin production in the brain.
   9. Negative Ions reduce the instances of headaches and sickness. The company Norwich Union found installing negative ion air cleaners in a work area full computers and other electronic equipment reduced instances of reported sickness and headaches by 78%. Negative ion generators are also routinely used in hospitals in Europe for their beneficial impact on patient’s health and healing rates.
   10. Elevated mental concentration and performance. Testing has regularly shown that subjects exposed to high levels of negative ions perform better in mentally challenging tasks than those breathing normal positive ion dense air. Pierce J. Howard PhD at the Center for Applied Cognitive Sciences says in the Owners Manual for the Brain – “Negative ions increase the flow of oxygen to the brain; resulting in higher alertness, decreased drowsiness, and more mental energy.”
