Indoor plants are good for your health and not just for their visual beauty. Having indoor plants is the simplest way to bring nature into your household. 

Indoor plants have infinite benefits:

• Boost mood, productivity, concentration and creativity
• Reduce stress, fatigue, sore throats and colds
• Clean indoor air by absorbing toxins, increasing humidity and producing oxygen
• Add life to a sterile office, give privacy and reduce noise levels
• Are therapeutic and cheaper than a therapist

Also, air pollution is definitely not a thing to be ignored. We are all familiar with the health impact, air pollution has on us. 

Extensive research by NASA has revealed that houseplants can remove up to 87 percent of air toxins in 24 hours.
