1. Air pollution exacerbates stress.
The air contains many tiny dust particles, smaller than 28 times the size of a human hair, which we unknowingly inhale into our lungs. Alongside this, there are numerous other pollutants present.
Air pollution adversely affects physical health, causing respiratory infections, cardiovascular diseases, lung cancer... Additionally, research by scientists suggests that air pollution also impacts our mental well-being.
Researchers from the University of Washington conducted a study across countries with air pollution. The survey results reveal that places with higher levels of airborne dust exhibit a 17% higher stress rate among participants compared to other locations.
Researchers at Harvard School of Public Health analyzed data from 987 men and observed an increase in their stress levels upon exposure to polluted air.
On the flip side, stress exacerbates the impact of air pollution on human health. For instance, research from Columbia University suggests that prenatal psychological stress, coupled with exposure to high levels of air pollution, can lead to behavioral issues in children. Children whose mothers are exposed to high levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are at the highest risk of behavioral problems.
2. Clean air - an effective stress shield
Limiting exposure to air pollutants is an optimal way to reduce stress. An effective measure is investing in indoor clean air solutions, especially since the outbreak of Covid, when people tend to spend more time indoors.
Nanoe™ X technology, an exclusive innovation by Panasonic, has the ability to inhibit bacteria, viruses, and odor.
To improve air quality and create a healthier living environment, Panasonic scientists have been researching and developing exclusive air purification technology, Nanoe™ X, for over 20 years. This technology utilizes hydroxyl radicals (OH) to inhibit pollutants. Hydroxyl radicals are abundant in nature but short-lived. However, those generated by Nanoe™ X emitters have a longer lifespan and can reach every corner of a room to inhibit bacteria, viruses, and unpleasant odors. Particularly, Nanoe™ X second-generation technology is capable of doubling the production of OH radicals compared to the previous generation, up to 9.6 trillion per second, reducing odor elimination time and pollen suppression compared to the first generation.
Currently, Nanoe™ X second-generation technology is available in premium Aero Inverter 1-way air conditioners (XU series) and premium Inverter 2-way air conditioners (XZ series) at different price ranges, ranging from 14 million to over 44 million VND, making it easy for consumers to choose according to the size of their room.
Panasonic's XU series air conditioners with nanoe™ X second-generation technology create a healthier indoor environment.
These air conditioners also feature other useful functions such as iAuto X rapid cooling technology, which increases cooling speed by 25% compared to standard, smart sensors to control and adjust humidity below 60%, and improved Aerowing swing blades that extend airflow up to 15m, providing evenly cool air. Moreover, these premium air conditioners are Wi-Fi enabled, allowing easy operation via the Panasonic Comfort Cloud smart management app on smartphones anytime, anywhere.
Panasonic Comfort Cloud is a convenient and intelligent application that allows users to remotely connect and control up to 200 devices.
