What Is Asthma? Asthma is a serious lung disease that causes difficulty breathing and even death. About 20 million Americans have asthma, many of which are children. During an asthma attack, it is hard for the individual to breathe because the lung’s airway becomes narrow. This causes the asthma sufferer to wheeze, cough, and suffer from shortness of breath. Asthma can be triggered by allergens and irritants in the home. You can reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks by reducing asthma triggers found in your home. Ozonelite immunizes the air in a natural, non-toxic way to help eliminate allergens such as smoke, mold, and dust mites without the use of poisonous chemicals. Asthma Triggers Asthma episodes can be initiated by exposure to a variety of triggers indoors. Your doctor can help you determine which triggers are affecting your asthma. Indoor asthma triggers can include the following: Secondhand Smoke Secondhand smoke includes both the exhaled smoke from smokers and the smoke from the end of a cigarette, pipe or cigar. Secondhand smoke not only contains as many as 50 cancer-causing compounds, it can also trigger an asthma episode by irritating the inflamed bronchial passages of asthma sufferers. Many of the negative health effects of secondhand smoke affect children most. O-zonelite’s TiO2 (titanium dioxide) coating helps <eliminate the asthma trigger caused by smoke (link to: /smoke.html)> by removing ethylene gas from the air. Ethylene is a naturally occurring gaseous hormone produced by secondhand smoke. Dust Mites Dust mites are tiny animals that feed on skin flakes. They are so small they cannot be seen, but they are found in every home in the mattresses, pillows, carpets, furniture, clothes, and stuffed toys. The body parts and feces of dust mites can trigger and, in some cases, cause asthma in children and individuals. To reduce exposure to dust mites you should wash bedding, clothes, and stuffed toys once a week in hot water, and cover mattresses and pillows in dust-proof zippered covers. O-zonelite can help you eliminate airborne microorganisms, dust mites, bacteria, and viruses in a safe, natural, and non-toxic way without having to use harmful chemical solvents. Pets and their Dander For people with allergies to animal dander, pets can trigger violent asthma attacks. The dead skin flakes, saliva, and hair of dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs and other mammals can all trigger asthma episodes. The best way to control animal allergens from triggering asthma episodes within your household is to not have animals inside your home. Isolating the pet to only one area of the home is not effective because the allergen is carried by the residents of the home to all parts of the house. If you get rid of your current pet, you must also clean your home thoroughly, including floors, walls, carpets and furniture. O-zonelite is perfect for pet owners who want a safe, natural, non-toxic way to help eliminate dander allergens and odors without the use of harmful, poisonous chemicals. Molds Molds also produce allergens that cause allergic reactions, such as sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash. They can also trigger asthma episodes and respiratory problems. You can prevent health problems that are caused by house molds by controlling your home’s environment. You should inspect your home for mold, and then eliminate the mold and any moisture source allowing the mold to thrive. You can also destroy the mold spores in your home before they have a chance to grow. This can be effectively done with photocatalytic action of the O-zonelite bulb. Controlling Asthma An important step in managing asthma is to reduce the potential exposures to your asthma triggers. Know the causes of your asthma episodes, and learn how to manage them in order to reduce frequency and severity of your attacks. When you cannot avoid the asthma triggers in your home or office, using the Ozonelite can help minimize their effects. The disinfectant and self-cleaning qualities of TiO2 (titanium dioxide) are being widely employed in Japan and many European countries today. O-zonelite’s TiO2 (titanium dioxide) coating produces a photocatalytic action that breaks down the airborne microorganisms into harmless CO2 and H2O, and is completely safe for humans and animals. One O-zonelite bulb can provide protection to several areas in you home or office. O-zonelite can eliminate airborne mold spores, dust mites, pet dander, and smoke in a safe, natural, and non-toxic way before they have a chance to damage your health. By removing ethylene gas from the air, O-zonelite helps remove the asthma triggers of mold and secondhand smoke. Learn
