THE LUNG HYGROMETER
The need of human beings, as with any animal is to obtain a shelter.
If the animal has evolved and skill in using specialized parts of their bodies with prehensile properties, manages to bring in an instinctive way to optimal patient needs that are usually seasonal.
The human hand has initially used the caves (the womb Mother Earth), like many other animals, mammals and then built wood and straw huts in imitation of birds.
In both cases, the environments have a characteristic: they were places with high humidity. In the first case
very good, the second a bit 'less.
E 'singular as many therapies, today the fashion, bring back people to the caves (such as spa treatments) and the climate of the huts with hay baths to stimulate blood circulation and balance the immune system through the use of medicinal plants.
As we try to break away from these two archetypes seems that contact with the surrounding environment is a requirement of which we can not do without.
fleeing caves and huts and then come back, even with therapeutic purposes which are very effective.
The reason for this being that there is exchange between the environment and the body.
One important physical exchange, where the environment issue of the particles that will enrich and nourish the body.
This means that we have the capaità to absorb everything around us, with skin and with the breath.
If we think that most building materials are not even compatible for landfills and must be disposed of as hazardous or toxic materials, we can hardly think that our homes are healthy environments. This
we can assess not only the difficulty of living in new houses but also, and conversely a sense of well being that is felt in visiting old houses.
First, the perception of heat and cold is different. In a new home
20 ° in winter seem few, while in an old or ancient already seem optimal 17-18 °. In the summer
25/26 ° are born with difficulties in new environments and are more than acceptable in the ancient ones.
The reasons are many but the main one is that the moisture content is different because the walls behave differently.
The new block wall and alveolar plaster mortar is water permeable and less permeable to water.
The old stone walls with plaster and bedding mortar footnotes are very porous and permeable to water vapor.
In the first case, the moisture tends to accumulate in a decline in summer and winter with heating on.
This phenomenon brings a sense of extreme heat in summer and winter discomfort as temperatures are perceptually altered by water vapor in the air that varies continuously.
But the most important thing is that in the stone wall to the vapor is enriched by natural features and benefits that come from the stones and calcium carbonate. From
alveolar walls in blocks of brick and mortar plastering to the steam is just full of indoor air pollution and particles of chemicals that leak from the walls and not only have nothing to greet and are biocompatible, but coming from official approval recognized toxic materials during processing and storage are harmful.
Only our extraordinary ability to adapt and withstand hostile environments has saved us saves us, but at great cost to the health and quality of our prosperity
One of the most visible of a stale, moisture and mildew stains are fungi that are formed preferably in the corners and are disposed of by the indiscriminate use of pesticides with paints with additives, known to be toxic to humans and other animals.
