Benefits of Salt Lamps

• Approved by the U.S. FDA as an approved allergy treatment.
• Ionization is mandatory in many European and Russian hospitals.
• U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found 53% less dust and 95% bacteria in the air by ionizing the room since many of the pollutants found in the air reside on floating dust particles.

• Good Housekeeping Magazine, in March 1999, had its engineers test an ionizer by using a smoke test and found that it cleared out the smoke in a tank.
• Health practitioners in Europe, North America, Australia and Japan use Salt Crystal Lamps extensively in their treatments for:
  • Snoring
  • Allergies
  • Sinus problems
  • To reduce asthma attacks
  • Respiratory problems
  • Migraine headaches
  • Enhance the immune system
  • Increase alertness and work productivity
  • Increase lung capacity
  • Reduce susceptibility to colds and flu

The impact of neg-ions is powerful. Originally, it was found to speed recovery in burn or asthma patients, but was later discovered to affect serotonin levels in the bloodstream, stabilize alpha rhythms and to positively impact our reactions to sensory stimuli. The greater level of alertness can translate into improved learning, improved well being and enhanced human performance on mental tasks.

Salt Crystal Lamps work by heat from the light bulb activating the salt, which releases Neg-Ions into the air killing bacteria, molds, mildews and spores, odors, cigarette smoke, chemical gases, pet odors, pollens, dust and dust mites, contaminants, animal dander, viruses, static electricity, carbon monoxide and much more.

A series of scientific studies show that salt crystal lamps can increase the neg-ion count by up to 300%. In nature Neg-Ions are created by means of wind, sunlight, surf, waterfalls and rainstorms. Generally, a neg-ion is an electronically charged molecule made up of oxygen. A positive ion in the air is a molecule that has lost its electrons through process of air pollution. In fresh country air we find up to 4000 neg-ions per cubic centimeter - the size of a sugar cube. Near strong surf or close to a waterfall up to 10,000 neg-ions can be found, however the number of neg-ions in major capital cities at rush hour does not even reach 100.

Ionized air also substantially reduces the number of airborne bacteria indoors. Dr. Albert P. Krueger, a microbiologist and experimental pathologist at the University of California, found that an astonishing small quantity of neg-ions could kill bacteria and quickly take them out of the air so they were less likely to infect people.

Even though they are not a "medical device", Salt Crystal Lamps, by emitting neg-ions, significantly reduce a myriad of indoor air pollutants. Neg-ions have known benefits, and may provide relief from sinus, migraine headaches allergies, snoring and hay fever, reduce the severity of asthma attacks, enhance the immune system, increase alertness, work productivity and concentration, increase lung capacity and reduce susceptibility to colds and flu.
