A recent study has revealed that HEPA air purifiers may help in lowering blood pressure, particularly for people frequently exposed to high levels of traffic-related pollution. Researchers found out that participants using HEPA purifiers recorded a notable drop in systolic blood pressure compared to those relying on non-HEPA devices. Even small reductions in blood pressure can greatly lower risks of heart attacks and strokes. The findings indicate that cleaner indoor air could serve as an easy, low-cost way to enhance cardiovascular health.
