If you experience any of these symptoms, you're not alone. The number of "morning sufferers" is mounting, while colds and flu continue to spread like wildfire. As technology has advanced, our homes have advanced with it. Those drafty houses of the past have been replaced by new, energy-efficient homes. And this "sealing up" of our homes has saved much money.
The downside, however, is that now we seldom breathe fresh air like we should. This is complicated by the fact that we now spend 90% of our lives inside. No matter how good a housekeeper you are, your home is filled with air pollutants including dust particles, mold spores, animal hair, dander, pollen, dust mites, cleaning chemicals, exhaust fumes, carbon monoxide, viruses, and bacteria.
