When you just buy a new home, the dust is terrible. Ordinary cleaning does not help, especially if you have children around the house. To tackle this problem, most people opt for air purifiers that are becoming increasingly capable of capturing a greater number of bacterial, virus, and DNA particulates.

Poor air quality is more a contributing factor of some forms of cancer, respiratory illnesses, and other pulmonary infections and illnesses. Household air purifiers use a small amount of electrical energy, causing a small amount of expense and environmental effect. They also reduce the need for frequent room and area cleaning.

That is true. Most purifiers do that. But be careful about the type of air purifier you choose.A Consumer Report a couple of years ago came out with an article that said, ionic air purifiers in general were bad for health because they produced ozone which could build up in a closed room up to unhealthy levels. Even the National Science Foundation published in the Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association comes to the same conclusion: Ionic air purifiers are your own personal smog machines and should be avoided.

But our technology at Oxynet Solutions unlike ozone generators and ionizers, or any harmful air cleaning products in the market, our products feature a 100% clean and secure technology: activated carbon and true medicalHEPA filtration media.

Indoor Air Purifiers -With Activated Carbon and HEPA Filters

According to the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), 30% of the global population suffers from breathing allergies, a figure which is rising. Residents of the Gulf suffer disproportionately more from asthma and breathing allergies, regardless of ethnic background or nationality. This is symptomatic of the pronounced air problems in the region, not only for residents, but also for the tourists visiting the Gulf.

The reason for this is that 90% of our time is spent indoors breathing recirculated air conditioned air. Air-pollution in Dubai can get even more fatal in the near future because of the dessert region around the city. Dubai itself is a source of air-pollution because of the massive constructions taking place.

This leads to a lot of dust being spread around and a lot more traffic in the city. Children are at a greater risk as they frequently play out doors. May be this problem is temporary. But the citizens are risking their health in the bargain.

The least we can do is take care of what we breathe indoors.

Therefore you need office and home air purifiers that will clean the indoor air of chemicals, gases, odors and particles. There are many air purifier suppliers in the Gulf.

Oxynet Solutions provide more customized Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) solutions than any other air purifier supplier. Whether wildfires, fireplace smoke, dust particles, VOC’s or any other contaminant is polluting your air quality, we have a solution for it.

We believe that the air you breathe needs to be completely clean and not partly clean. That’s why all our air purifiers have activated carbon in addition to high quality HEPA filters.

This complete approach to building air purifierstackles all the main irritants that affect poor indoor air quality: dust, pollen, pet dander, pet hair, dust mites, dangerous airborne chemicals, gases, fumes and annoying persistent odors like cigar and cigarette smoke and pet odors.

Oxynet provides solutions to different air purification needs, for your office and your home. We want to help you lead a healthier life.

What Is A Total Cholesterol Number?

Have you ever gotten a lab report handed to you and wondered just what all of those numbers meant? The doctor goes on and on trying to make you understand them. But, really what exactly are the total cholesterol numbers? Although it does seem to be completely out of your league, rest assured you can learn. It is important to comprehend those reports because they are about you and your body. We need to have at least a basic understanding of what is going on with our own health.

Unless you have never been to a doctor, you probably already know about the score of 200. We want to hear that our cholesterol is lower than that. That is normal and we understand it. Over 200 is a whole different story.

Your body produces two types of cholesterol LDL (bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol). A blood cholesterol level test easily reveals both of these averages to your physician, and the results determine if you are leaving with a lollipop or a scolding.

Our bodies produce two types of cholesterol. LDL is the bad cholesterol and HDL is the good stuff. The blood cholesterol test reveals both of these numbers to the doctor. The results let him know if you require further treatment.

Total cholesterol is calculated using this formulas: HDL +LDL+VLDL=Total Cholesterol.

Now you may be asking what is this VLDL number that is in the formula. VLDL is the doctor's abbreviation for the Triglyceride level in your blood. A triglyceride is a fatty acid or fat cell that is in your blood stream. VLDL is the triglyceride level in the bloodstream divided by five. Therefore, you total cholesterol number is the Good Cholesterol number + the Bad Cholesterol Number + the triglyceride level/5.

The doctor does not have to use calculus to find your total cholesterol number. If that number is well below 200, your doctor may congratulate you. If it is above 200 he may start a new medication or diet. If it has increased and is moving closer to the 200 mark, he may also give you a warning. You are better off knowing the number even if it is bad. Then you can start treatment.
