Air Purifiers and Chemotherapy


Chemotherapy can weaken the body’s immune system making it next to impossible for it to fight off germs and infection.

The usual germs and pollutants can become deadly. The usual dust, dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, bacteria and viruses can all wreak havoc.

Using an air purifier with a high efficiency particle arresting (HEPA) air filter is one of the most effective and continuous ways to keep the air fresh and remove airborne pollutants that a weakened immune system can no longer handle.

This type of filter can remove 99,997 out of every 10,000 particles that are .3 microns or greater in size. A micron, defined as one millionth of a meter, is far smaller than the period at the end of this sentence.

Filtering the air 24 hours a day takes the pressure off of the immune system and gives you more of a chance of warding off secondary infections.

See the air purifier that contains both a HEPA filter and a carbon filter that can remove gaseous pollutants as well at http://purerair.com/immune_deficiency_air_purifier.html

Chemotherapy Home Air Purifier


Undergoing chemotherapy greatly reduces the immune system’s effectiveness in dealing with germs, bacteria, viruses and hence infections. This can temporarily cause immune deficiency. And many of these pollutants that the body has increased susceptibility to are airborne.

Normally with a strong immune system the body is able to render these airborne particulates harmless. But with chemotherapy weakening your immune system, bacteria and viruses often use these airborne particles to attack you as you breathe in the air that contains them. So by eliminating airborne particulates you are able to greatly reduce airborne viruses and bacteria.

At a time when keeping the air as clean as possible is imperative to your health, the most efficient way to maintain clean air is to filter the air with a high efficiency particle arresting (HEPA) filter.

In order for a filter to be designated as a HEPA, it must have been tested and proven to remove 99.97% of airborne particulates as small as .3 microns with 97% efficiency. This means that for every 10,000 airborne particles in the air 99,997 of them will be eliminated.
