Indoor Air: The Invisible Challenge
Indoor air pollution isn’t always visible — but its effects are deeply felt. From allergies to asthma, many families are discovering that the air inside their homes can silently trigger health issues. The good news? Small, intentional changes can make a big difference.
In the Take a Breath series, we spotlight inspiring individuals who turned personal challenges into opportunities for healthier living. Their stories show how simple acts — from rethinking traditional cleaning products to improving indoor air quality through purification — can transform wellbeing and daily life.
