It’s that time of year – new clothes, shoes, pens, pencils, backpacks and nervous excitement for kids and parents alike. But, as you shuffle the kiddos off to embark on yet another school year, have you stopped to consider the quality of air he or she is breathing every day in the car, bus or inside their classroom?
It’s a fact that indoor air quality can affect intellectual quotient or, IQ test scores, cognitive development (even prenatal exposure) and trigger respiratory illnesses like asthma and allergies.
Today’s Poor IAQ: Indoor Air Quality
The EPA and its Science Advisory Board (SAB) have consistently ranked indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to public health. Contamination can come from a variety of sources including molds, carcinogenic fibers like fiberglass or asbestos, formaldehyde, dander, pollen, bacteria, dust, dust mites, smoke and smog, and volatile organic compounds that off-gas from furnishings and cleaning products to air fresheners and building materials, just to name a few. But, did you know poor indoor air quality can also affect cognitive function in not just adults, but children and teens, too?
Did You Know? Air pollution is one of those obstacles that can have an enormous impact on your cognitive performance and even your attention span – and that’s not an impediment you can afford to face if you’re trying to stay at the top of your class, no matter your grade. ~IQAir

The Indoor Air Quality / IQ Connection
A University of Southern California and UCLA Center for Health Policy Research study suggests teen exposure to poor air quality could reduce IQ levels long-term by posing adverse effects on brain structure and function. Breathing polluted air can impair memory and reasoning, reduce academic performance, and even lower intelligence, according to research. In fact, the study revealed that ‘for every increase of 2.5 micrograms per meter cubed (µg/m³) of fine-particle pollution (PM2.5) surrounding the teens’ homes, their performance IQ score dropped one point.’ According to Pan Wang, a lead author of the study,
Air pollution may have adverse effects on brain structure.”
According to IQAir, research revealed that breathing polluted air could impair memory and reasoning, reduce academic performance, and even lower intelligence.
Did You Know? Researchers found that, for every increase of 2.5 micrograms per meter cubed (µg/m³) of fine-particle pollution (PM2.5) surrounding the teens’ homes, their performance IQ score dropped one point.
The Solution: IQAir
Did you know ordinary HEPA filters can only filter 0.3-micron particles and larger? IQAir’s line of patented HyperHEPA filter goes further. HyperHEPA filters remove 99.5% of particles down to 0.003 microns, which are 10,000% smaller than the Department of Energy’s required 0.3-micron particle size.
The IQAir HyperHEPA filter removes course (pollen and mold), fine (allergens, bacteria, and dust) and ultrafine particles down to 0.003 microns. Ultrafine particles, or UFP’s, are the most prevalent and most dangerous particles consisting of over 90 percent of all airborne particles. These UFP’s include pollutants such as viruses, tobacco smoke, and soot. Ultrafine particles are inhaled and absorbed directly into the lungs where they penetrate tissues and can be incorporated into the bloodstream due to their small size. Once in the blood, these ultrafine particles can reach any organ or part of the body.

Atem’s HyperHEPA Plus filtration is effective against particles 100x smaller than ordinary air filters (ultrafine particles (UFPs) are smaller than 0.1 microns) as well as odor elimination, removing 99% of particle pollutants and adsorbing odor and gas molecules. The superior gas filtration results in air that is free of smells, gases, chemicals, and particles.
Did You Know? There is mounting evidence that poor IAQ can cause verbal, perceptual, motor, and behavioral disabilities in children. It can also cause hearing impairment, irritability, and developmental delays.
Powerful air cleaning technology of the Atem personal air purifier cleans your interior air up to 20 times per hour, providing you with the cleanest possible air for your commute.
