1071: Mike Feldstein | The Hidden Crisis of Indoor Air Pollution
Description
Indoor air quality affects us more than we realize. Here, Jaspr founder Mike Feldstein explains why what we breathe matters and how to fix it.
What We Discuss with Mike Feldstein:
- Indoor air quality is often significantly worse than outdoor air, as homes lack natural filtration systems like wind, sun, and trees. After cooking, poor air quality can persist for up to 48 hours without proper filtration.
- Most air quality issues can't be detected by human senses — we can't smell or see many harmful particles and chemicals that affect our health. This is especially concerning since we spend most of our time indoors.
- Common household activities like cooking (even healthy cooking), using air fresheners, and burning incense create significant indoor air pollution. Many cleaning products and deodorizers actually mask problems rather than solving them.
- Bedroom air quality is particularly critical since we spend roughly one-third of our lives sleeping. Your body does its best repair work during sleep — and it needs clean air to do that job effectively.
- There are several simple ways to improve your indoor air quality today: Open windows on opposite sides of your house for cross-ventilation when outdoor air is clean, use your range hood when cooking (verify it vents outside), remove artificial air fresheners, and consider air filtration for rooms where you spend the most time, especially bedrooms. These small changes can make a big difference in your indoor air quality.
