■Do you know why viral infections spread during the summer?
Indoor environments in summer, like inside cars, are similar to those in cold, low-humidity winter conditions. The temperature difference between the hot outside air and the cooler indoor environment weakens the body, and the low humidity dries out the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract, creating an ideal environment for viruses to infect and multiply.
■A proposal from the HCIA (Japan Hypochlorous Acid Industry Association)
During the dry summer months when air conditioning is used, regulating humidity with a humidifier is effective. When using air conditioning for cooling, it is crucial to maintain humidity levels between 50-60% with a humidifier, which keeps the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract moist and creates an environment less conducive to viral infections, making it highly effective for infection control.
■Recommended new habits
1) When you turn on the air conditioner, switch on the humidifier.
2) Keep the humidifier tank clean with JSA-compliant hypochlorous acid molecular water.
(Adjust the tank water to a concentration of 10-50 ppm.)
■With JSA-compliant hypochlorous acid molecular water:
1) It is ideal for preventing infection clusters through humidity management.
2) It is safe because it only contains ingredients approved for use in food.
3) It effectively suppresses the growth of mold and bacteria in the humidifier water tank, which can cause "humidifier pneumonia," ensuring safety.
