Most people might think that it is only a question of&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>aesthetics<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(they beautify indoor spaces) and&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>psychological well-being<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(they eliminate stress and help us relax). It is not so. We often forget that green can also help purify the air and limit&nbsp;&nbsp;domestic pollution&nbsp;&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We know that pollutants can come from glues, paints and sealants used in home finishes, printers in use, cigarette smoke, cleaners, etc. Even frying foods,&nbsp;&nbsp;such as milanesa&nbsp;&nbsp;, pollutes indoor environments. That is why some plants capable of absorbing small quantities of&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>volatile organic compounds<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(we are talking above all about aldehydes and aliphatic, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons) turn out to be precious allies. We have selected five for you, let&#8217;s look at them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ficus\">ficus<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"502\" src=\"https:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-103.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9155\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-103.png 768w, http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-103-300x196.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You probably already recognized it from the photo.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>In fact, it is not so rare to find a Ficus elastica plant<\/em>&nbsp;&nbsp;in the living room of an apartment. One of its great virtues (which it also shares with&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Ficus benjamina<\/em>&nbsp;&nbsp;and other species of the same family) is the ability to absorb moderate amounts of&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>formaldehyde<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;: up to 12 micrograms per hour. It prefers humid and not too cold environments. In addition, it is a plant suitable for people who are a little lazy: in fact, it does not require special care and is very resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aloe\">Aloe<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-102.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9154\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-102.png 768w, http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-102-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you know,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>aloe vera<\/em>&nbsp;&nbsp;is a&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>succulent plant<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;that has a number of&nbsp;&nbsp;beneficial properties&nbsp;&nbsp;.

Evergreen plant, it prefers bright environments, although it is not recommended to leave it exposed to direct sunlight, and it needs a soil that is uniformly moist but not wet, so it is advisable to water it once or twice a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pothos\">Pothos<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-100.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9152\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-100.png 768w, http:\/\/www.recipes-eng.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-100-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like the previous plants, Pothos (scientific name&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Epipremnum aureum<\/em>&nbsp;&nbsp;) requires little attention. It does, however, help to eliminate formaldehyde, xylene, toluene, benzene and carbon monoxide.
