The hidden danger of smells

Volatile Organic Compounds(VOCs) are in a lot of products which we come into contact with in our everyday lives. We've mentioned them in the past when talking about the Air Power5 Pro. However, a new report was published the other day which triggered a memory. I remembered my children saying they did not like the smell of a new car. Children have none of the preconceptions adults have and are instinctively right a lot of the time (so my kids tell me). So I took it that the smell was bad. Little did I know how BAD it was. Have a look at this report to see the emissions we stew in, when in our cars. Also the emissions from child seats, and these are meant to protect our little treasures. Research conducted in 2005 found that Japanese cars can contain up to 35 times the limit set for VOCs.


Also, I discovered this. Over 100 chemicals are released into the air from our shower curtains. Now combine that with the chlorine found in the air from water vapour, and it makes a really unhealthy cocktail.

I'm off to buy a gas mask....though that'll probably emit something nasty!

How safe is your kitchen??

Looks like a "natural" solution to work tops is causing problems. You might think your kitchen is safe because you have natural stone worktops. However, read this and think again.

Just shows how we need to think when creating a Wellness Home. Not all natural solutions are good.

The Science of Nikken

They do work!!

How often have you heard that from someone who has experienced Nikken's technologies for the first time? I remember experiencing the power of the products many many years ago. I was playing golf with senior members of Nikken in Irvine and I strained a muscle. A Magboy was used on the sore spot, then I hit one of the best shots of my life. I had some more twinges and needed further work with the Magboy. The pain cleared up and I finished playing. The affect it had was hard to describe, but the effect was a revelation. I've tried to replicate the amazing shot again, but without pulling any muscles. Well, I've not won the Open. However, I can replicate the effect of Nikken products time and time again.

We should not wait until we have a problem before taking action - like I did. Now days, people want more proof about how the technologies work, or at least have a level of comfort they do work well, before making a decision. If you know anyone who has these doubts then get them to the next tour in September. At the Science of Nikken Tour everyone will leave knowing how powerful our products really are. So don't miss it - tickets for the French meeting have nearly gone.

Sleep is good for you

Just noticed this article about sleep. Nothing we didn't know, but useful information anyway.
If you have teenage children and they sleep a lot, you know it's good for their school grades..
