« Do wrinkle creams really work?: a brief study   Cellulite : Best Ways For Cellulite Removal »

Travel air purifier, anyone? You think its funny that there is even such as thing as travel air purifier. That it is too strange for a traveler to bring such as thing. You might even think that air purifiers are only meant for used in controlled environment such as office or residential homes. Including it among your travel kits seems laughable–but yes many travelers use this. You might be amazed on the technology involved in such gadgets.

Right off the bat let me just say that those little travel air purifiers that you wear around your neck are probably not going to help you a whole lot when you travel. I can certainly understand the desire to have a travel air purifier with you especially if you are confined on an airplane where you cannot open the windows. But a tiny air purifier around your neck is going to have its challenges in keeping the air around you purified before you breathe it. Ask your doctor what is the best way to protect yourself from airborne bacteria when flying on a plane and maybe invest your money in a better way to protect yourself.

Some people describe travel air purifiers as paranoia but I look at it as a way to use technology to protect yourself from the harmful things in the air when you travel. A travel air purifier is no different to me than the people that bring their own bedding to hotels because of all of the stories about hotel linens. I think it is a very practical thing to do and a good investment to make if you travel a lot and are forced to stay in hotels that do not offer air purifiers for their rooms.

Opt for an air purifier with a pre-filter if you are concerned about filtering out allergens. Choose a travel air purifier that has a good HEPA filter as well as a filter for VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), which are gases released by chemicals.

There are travel air purifier that can be plugged into an electrical outlet and then quietly work. This is ideal for travellers who are staying in hotels as it removes dust, mould and other airborne particles. This can also be used in cars with power inverter. If you suffer from allergy, this is ideal gadget for you.
