Until I came upon the video you are about to watch below, I had no idea that air pollution that exists inside our homes is far more concentrated and dangerous for us, than outdoor pollution! This indoor pollution, according to the American Lung Association, is often overlooked and is caused by dangerous chemicals that can be found in almost every home.
The three most dangerous chemicals are: formaldehyde, benzene and trichloroethylene. These pollutants are often found in carpets, plastics and cleaning supplies, and exacerbate or cause allergies and asthma. So that’s the bad news. The good news is that a recent study by NASA revealed that there is a natural and esthetically pleasing way to detoxify the air in your home…a select group of POTTED PLANTS!
Some plants that do the trick in getting rid of pollutants are:
SPIDER PLANTS which get rid of formaldehyde; DRACAENA PLANT; FICUS TREES which eliminate benzene in the air; PEACE LILY which eradicates ammonia and other chemicals; RUBBER PLANTS removes carbon monoxide; BOSTON FERNS; POT MUMS and ENGLISH IVY.
These and other common potted plants will be discussed in the upcoming video, and will further explain how important it is for your respiratory health, to keep plants in your indoor environment. Let us know what you think and whether you will add more plants inside your homes.
Do you have these plant inside your house?

He Places Eggs In A Muffin Tin And Puts It In The Oven. THIS Reason Is Unexpectedly GENIUS!
image via – youtube.com
Eggs are one of the most versatile foods to cook with and eat. They’re a main ingredient in lots of recipes and even taste great cooked by themselves in a variety of different ways. The fact that they are widely available and affordable make them a staple to have on hand in the kitchen.
Plus, they’re a great addition to main dishes or as a side accompaniment to a meal. Even people who are far from master chef status can easily whip up a batch of scrambled, hard boiled, or fried eggs. However, when it comes to hard boiling an egg, or 12, there’s a clever way to get it done right every time that doesn’t involve the standard stove-top method.
Instead, you can use your oven to easily hard boil a bunch of eggs all at once. All you need is a muffin tin and some eggs. This method is great for people or families who go through a lot of eggs and there is no guesswork involved. When you boil them on the stove it can be hard to figure out whether or not they’re done cooking, but in the oven it takes 30 minutes every time.
Also, the shells on the oven hard boiled eggs come off a lot easier, which is always a welcome thing and makes life easier. First, pre-heat the oven to a toasty 325 degrees. Take a muffin tin and gently place one egg into each of the muffin slots.
Carefully transfer the baking pan to the oven and cook the eggs for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a bowl with water and dump a bunch of ice to it. When the eggs are done being cooked remove them from the oven and spoon them into the ice water. After a few minutes they should be sufficiently cooled down, so you can drain the water and remove the eggs.
All that’s left to do is peel and eat them, bon appétit!

He Places Tea Bags All Over His Car. THIS Reason Is Unexpectedly GENIUS!

Tea is second only to water for ranking among the top consumed beverages in the world. According to teausa.com, it can be found in almost 80% of all U.S. households and on any given day over 158 million Americans will drink it.
By far it’s one of the most versatile drinks and can be served in countless different ways. However, you don’t always have to drink your tea to enjoy it and there are lots of additional uses that tea bags can be put to. One of the best ways they come in handy is by freshening up smelly, damp places.
Some people toss them in shoes and garbage cans to stave off odors, and as the One Pot Chef Show explains, they work just as well in cars. No one likes riding around in a stinky car and if you spend a lot of time in your automobile, you want it to smell good.
The best, most cost-effective way to achieve a pleasant smelling car is by placing a few tea bags all around the interior. Put a couple under the seats, in the glove compartment, ashtray, seat or door pockets, and anywhere else you can hide them.
The dry tea bags not only release their own pleasing scent, they also work to absorb any excess moisture or odors that may be present in the air. They work better in comparison to store bought car-fresheners because they actually eliminate odors instead of just temporarily masking them as the store varieties tend to do.
This won’t even cost you a penny if you have an extra box of tea laying around that you don’t really like or will probably never end up drinking. Instead of throwing it out, re-purpose it and freshen up your car.
The best types of teas for a fresh smelling car are the flavored varieties and both cinnamon and vanilla are recommended by the one pot chef, but really any fragrance you prefer or have on hand will do.
Tea’s deodorizing aspects work wonders and the bags can be placed in stinky shoes, refrigerators, garbage cans, around litter boxes, and anywhere else that bad odors pop up.
The tea bags last several months and should be replaced when needed to keep your car smelling clean. Just one box will last a long time and easily covers a year. Plus, since the average box of tea costs less than five dollars, it’ll save you a lot of money.
Try it today and see what a wonderful difference they can end up making!

This Is Why There Is Extra Wood On The End Of Your Chopsticks. I’m So Glad I Learned THIS!
image via – youtube.com
If you’ve ever used disposable chopsticks then you know how tricky handling them for the first time can be. While some people are naturals at using the eating utensils, for most of us it takes a little more time, patience, and practice to truly master the art.
And unless you eat a lot of Chinese takeout, you probably don’t use them all that often. When you do happen to come across a pair, the first thing you have to do is unwrap them from the packaging. Next, you split them apart and break them in two, now they are ready for grabbing food and eating with.
If you’re like me and millions of other people who do exactly that, you just used your chopsticks wrong. That’s because there is a better, more useful way to break them apart. Instead of snapping them in half, break off the very top portion and then use that piece as a chopstick rest.
Now you have a clean spot off the table to rest your chopsticks and nothing will end up getting dirty. The clever trick has been described by many as a chopstick life hack after an Australian woman, who goes by the name BortofDarkness on Twitter, posted an image of it which quickly went viral.
The internet responded and for the most part people are fascinated by the information. Some even shared other related life hacks of their own. A popular tip that many people swear by involves modifying chopsticks to make them a lot easier to use.
The simple trick requires just a rubber band and a thin strip of paper. In this short video DaveHax shows you how to make a pair of user-friendly chopsticks. These are great for beginners and those who always seem to struggle with chopsticks, so be sure to check it out.
All you need to do is wrap a rubber band around one end of the chopsticks. Roll up a little piece of paper and slide it down in between the 2 sticks until it reaches the spot right in front of the rubber band. When you close the chopsticks it will spring back open since the rubber band and piece of paper give it resistance.
This makes them similar to tongs in that they grab food, and picking things up this way is a lot easier to do than with traditionally held chopsticks. Give it a try the next time you order some tasty lo mein and see if it works for you!

Multiple Sclerosis, is a disease that is actually viral in origin, and often sits dormant until first symptoms get expressed in a person’s 20’s. The degree of debilitation can vary greatly from individual to individual, and one’s attitude (as with all diseases) can make a huge difference.
In the video you are about to watch below, Amber Mills, a former Marine who is now a full-time stay-at-home mom of three children, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. She had been growing increasingly depressed over the decline in her health, when she read about an unusual contest online; make the winning wedding dress out of TOILET PAPER and win $10,000!
No longer wanting to dwell on her fear and disillusionment with her health challenges, she went to work with pink and white CHARMIN, tape, glue, needle and thread to create the most incredibly beautiful and detailed TOILET PAPER WEDDING GOWN!
With painstaking effort, you will see her craft toilet paper lace, by boiling the toilet paper with glue which she incredibly turns into a work of art. Pain is not only the touchstone of change, but for Amber it opened the door to an artistic ability that was life-changing.
