"Are You Getting Enough Negative Ions?"

Did you know that each time you take a breath of air you are breathing either negative or positive ions, depending upon the quality of the air you are breathing?

Negative ions are very important because without them our bodies can’t produce a single cell and the average person reproduces their cell structures at the rate of 50 million per second.

Even though the name positive sounds...well, positive...when we’re talking about ions, the positive ions are the bad ones that cause feelings such as depression, fear, paranoia, anxiety, irritability and short attention span. 

When you’re driving in heavy traffic, for instance, or walking about under a cloud of smog, you’re breathing in toxic fumes. Any time you’re breathing in toxic fumes, which is most of the time these days what with the steadily increasing overuse of fossil fuels in our environment, your body is incapable of reproducing cells normally.

Long term breathing of positive ions, such as those found in the fumes created by burning gasoline and diesel in automobiles and other fossil fuel burning, creates long term genetic damage.

Did you know that the air we once consumed consisted mostly of negative ions, whereas today it is shockingly two thirds harmful, positive ions? Most, if not all of this is due to the burning of fossil fuels.

Knowing this, it’s no great leap to understanding why the nation is plagued with so many psychotic conditions as evidenced by freeway shootings and the multi-billion dollars business of prescribing drugs to supposedly counteract depression.

When the body can no longer manufacture vasopressin, to help the body regulate stressful situations, due to years of breathing excessively high amounts of negative ions in our polluted environment, body signals are no longer processed properly and in situations that normally would not overly stress the body, the brain begins to react in an unreasonable and often violent manner.

Negative ions can create feelings of happiness and euphoria and thereby build healthy cells at the proper rate of 50 million per second, which in turn builds a strong, healthy body.

Just for a moment try to imagine how hard your brain has to work to overcome the excessive amounts of unhealthy, positive ions you breathe in with the 2,500 gallons of air we consume each day. You might think that this is no problem, but remember that your mind uses 80% of your energy and if you have to mentally overcome polluted air as well, your mind will begin to fail you.

The American Medical Association has published statistics that indicate one out of every two Americans...that’s 50% or half of all Americans living today will contract cancer. And what is the most prevalent form of cancer? You guessed it...it’s lung cancer.

So what can you do to protect yourself from breathing in all those unhealthy, positive ions each day?

The first thing that comes to mind is to stop contributing to the world wide air pollution problem caused by burning fossil fuels by choosing not to drive your car every single day. 

Ask yourself “do you really need to drive today?” “Do you have an alternate form of transportation available to you?” “Could you get out and walk, instead?” “If you must drive, could you car pool?” Just think, if everyone chose just one day a week NOT to drive what a HUGE impact this would have on the world wide air pollution problem. And really start to think about totally eliminating fossil fuel use entirely when you drive and choose to make your next vehicle either a hybrid or totally electric version.

Get yourself a negative ionizer for your home and office because ionized air will have a very strong impact on your feelings and attitudes and you’ll certainly think a lot more clearly, too.

The bottom line is, as always, up to the individual, and we all need to realize that even the smallest person can make a difference. We all have the power to bring our ailing planet back to health.

What can you do to eliminate the burning of fossil fuels? 

Do you want your air to come from the tailpipe of an automobile or from natural, healthy, oxygen-producing plants and trees?
