Houseplants are not only decorative and aesthetic elements, but also have very useful properties for our health. Some plants are more effective than others, which is why it is important to make the right choice.
In general, plants can improve health and strength by moistening the environment so that our mucous membranes and skin stay hydrated.
Pothos Benefits
In addition, they are ideal for purifying the air at home and removing toxic substances such as formaldehyde, benzene or xylene.
One of the most effective cleaning plants is undoubtedly pothos . This plant, native to Southeast Asia, is common in homes throughout Italy.
This plant with perennial leaves is valued primarily for its aesthetic appearance, which suits both modern and classic styles. It is a hardy plant that does not require much care.
Its cleaning power is very strong and particularly effective in eliminating formaldehyde (which can cause cancer), xylene (a harmful component that causes headaches, nausea and nervous system problems) and benzene (in large quantities it can cause death).
Although this plant has many benefits, it is poisonous to our pets.
