Not only the plants we grow in our homes need oxygen, but they also produce it. They are very beneficial because they cleanse the air we breathe from mold and toxins. This is what makes them good for our health.

NASA conducted a study on domestic plants and discovered that some species filter the air and eliminate the organic compounds that evaporate to a greater extent than others.

These plants clean the air from some building materials, paint, dust etc as well.

These are the six plants that are recommended to have them in your home, the best six of the domestic plants:

  • aloe – it is a plant great for increasing the level of oxygen in your home. Not only that, Aloe is also excellent in absorbing the carbon dioxide, the formaldehyde and the carbon monoxide from the air we breathe. Only one aloe plant is enough to do the work of nine biological air purifiers.
  • ficus (Ficus Elastica) – it is very easy to grow and take care of this plant because it does not require much light. It is very beneficial for cleaning the air from formaldehyde. However, if you have small kids or you keep a pet in your home, you should be quite careful because its leaves are toxic.
  • ivy (Hedera Helix) – this herb is a must when it comes to plants you should grow in your home. It removes even 60 percent of the toxic substances from the air in your home and 58 percent of feces particles in just as little as six hours after it is placed in the area it purifies the air in.
  • spider plant (Chorophytum Comosum) – one of the plant that require minimum amount of light for the process of photosynthesis. The spider plant is great for absorbing toxic ingredients in the air, including styrene, formaldehyde, gasoline and carbon monoxide. For a space of 200 square meters, only one plant like this one is needed to purify the air efficiently.
  • snake plant (Sansevieria Trifasciata “Laurentil”) – the snake plant is to say indestructible and this is just one of the reason why it is great to have it in your home. It is rather resistant and it doesn’t require much light for the process of photosynthesis. It eliminates the toxins from the air and it also produces significant amounts of oxygen at night, which makes it excellent for keeping it in the bedroom.
  • peace lilies (Spathiphyllum “Mauna Loa”) – it efficiently removes toxins and other chemicals from the air. It is also great for filtering the air from trichloroethylene and formaldehyde.

According to NASA, for a living space of 500 square meters, 15 to 18 of these plants are needed in order to breathe some clean air rich in oxygen. This means that for a space of 80 square meters, 3 or 4 plants of this kind are needed. And do not forget to have at least one of these in your bedroom, because you spend quite some time there while you sleep, and it is important to breathe clean air during that period of about 8 hours, which is a third of the day.
