Colds and flu begin making their seasonal rounds during fall and winter. Part of the reason for increased respiratory illnesses during this time is because the humidity level in the air reaches its yearly lows. Central heating units in homes and offices further remove moisture from the air. The relative humidity may drop to as low as 10% - drier than the air in the Sahara desert. Most people experience problems when the relative humidity drops below 25%. A comfortable everyday humidity level should not be higher than 50%. When you or your child are experiencing congestion, then the humidity should be kept much higher, 70-80% during these periods for best effect. Humidifiers help prevent this excessive dryness, providing these benefits:Helps relieve cold, flu and hay fever symptoms. Helps relieve dry, irritated and itching skin and eyes.
