For this reason, we need to breathe \u2013 by the way, up to 20,000 times a day. Every oxygen molecule we inhale transports negative ions, which it releases into the cells. The electrically positive potential is already present because we live on Earth; the negative ions are added through breathing. Now an electrical charge gradient is created within the cell. \u00ab+\u00bb and \u00ab\u2013\u00bb ions attract each other, exchange, and precisely that gets the juices flowing. That is the beginning of life and metabolism.
Indeed, metabolism also naturally produces a certain amount of free oxygen radicals in the human body that are highly reactive, to the extent that they can react with cells and also damage them. Our body has defense systems to combat and neutralize these radicals. However, when there are too many of them, the immune system is damaged and the degeneration of the human body is accelerated. Positive ions contribute to this process with their effect, while negative ions slow it down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
This is why we age<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
As we age, starting around the age of 25, we need more and more energy to maintain our metabolism. But here nature and physiology are unforgiving: our body can only absorb and utilize about 25 percent of the oxygen in the air we breathe. And unfortunately, in the prime of our lives, that is no longer enough. Sacrifices must be made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our organism will first supply its most vital organs with the electrical energy of the delivered oxygen, the negative ions. Above all the heart, then the most important organs and the brain. Unfortunately, our largest organ, the skin, is at the very bottom of the priority list. For this reason, the signs of aging are first visible in the appearance of the skin. To be precise: our skin cells no longer receive enough life energy in the form of negative ions to divide sufficiently and maintain basic metabolic processes. It is like a cell phone whose battery is gradually running out. Therefore, only one thing holds promise for reversing the aging process: recharging the cells electrically.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How can our body recharge energetically?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The benefits of negative ions have been proven in countless scientific studies. As early as 1910, Albert Einstein stated that the healing effect of the mountain air in Davos was due to the electricity of the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One cm3<\/sup> Breathing air (dice-sized) contains, among other things, 21 % of oxygen and, in addition to the positive ions\u2014which we\u2019re not concerned with since we already have enough of them\u2014should carry at least 2,000 negative ions. In a clean environment, the ratio of the two types of ions is roughly equal. In our living environment, this balance is disrupted by various activities, electrical devices, materials, furnishings, and building materials. If we look around to see how many negative ions we find in the air we breathe in natural environments, the results are quite sobering. In an office, for example, there are just 70 negative ions per cm3<\/sup>. In shopping malls 220 per cm3<\/sup>, in the forest 2500 per cm3<\/sup> and near waterfalls and spray, up to 5,000 per cm3<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
But watch out,<\/strong> Oxygen molecules can quickly lose their charge in environments with a high grounding potential, such as offices with many computers or at home, where cell phones, computers, televisions, or household appliances are found in practically every room. For example, the negative charge of the O2<\/sub>-molecules near a mobile phone charger or a television, significantly. We still have enough oxygen around us, but the quality of the negatively charged oxygen molecules is decreasing significantly. The cells are insufficiently supplied with negative ions and our skin, at the end of the supply chain, begins to age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
The Effects of Positive and Negative Oxygen Ions on Our Bodies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A deficiency of negative ions affects more than just skin aging. Positive and negative oxygen ions are responsible for many different symptoms and effects in the human body:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Positive oxygen ions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
An imbalance and an excess of positive ions can be responsible for:<\/strong> Headache, fatigue, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, sleep disorders, depression, anxiety, irritability, nausea, abdominal pain, breathing difficulties, high blood pressure and other symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Negative oxygen ions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
High concentrations of negative ions can have the following effects:<\/strong> Physical well-being, increased performance, improved concentration, a positive mood, reduced fatigue, easier breathing, more restful sleep, lower blood pressure, and a slower aging process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Negative ions not only have a positive effect by counteracting the negative impact of positive ions, but they also remove fine dust, aerosols, bacteria, germs, and viruses, and even neutralize odors. They are even capable of eliminating these pollutants within seconds or minutes and, thanks to the reduction of free oxygen radicals in the body, of strengthening the immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Wouldn't it be great if we could artificially supply the body with large amounts of negative ions?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Of course, long walks in the woods or along the lake shore, extended stops to do breathing exercises by waterfalls that carry large volumes of water, or thoroughly airing out the rooms after a thunderstorm can all help. But let\u2019s be honest: Who is in the fortunate position of being able to go for a walk in the woods right after work, or even has a roaring waterfall just around the corner? Even properly ventilating rooms and offices isn\u2019t always that easy in every building these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another option is modern air purifiers equipped with a function that also \u00abequips\u00bb the ambient air with new negative ions immediately after cleaning. However, in rooms with a high grounding potential, these are quickly discharged again. Devices that can \u201efeed\u201c the negatively ionized air directly into our respiratory tract or, in plasma form, through our skin into the entire body are much more effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
