Wes Greenwood: Your Indoor Air Quality Sucks And How To Fix It With Jaspr

During this episode, I talk to former firefighter and chief breath officer of Jaspr, Wes Greenwood, about the unseen world of air quality and what’s really in the air we breathe—both indoors and out.

You’ll learn how air filters like the Jasper actually catch pollution, what particulate matter is, how cooking (even clean, grass-fed steak) produces airborne compounds, and how most kitchen range hoods are either undersized or vent directly into your house. If you’ve ever wondered how smart air filters work without Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, or why your sleep might drastically improve just by cleaning the air in your bedroom, this is the show for you.

Wes also shares the personal story of how his health was deeply affected by mold exposure in a home with a dirt-floor crawlspace, explaining how most of the air in a two-story house actually comes from below due to the “chimney effect.”

If you’re curious about breath, air, ions, and the electric charge in your body, and how they all connect, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!

 

TIMESTAMPS:

Indoor air is not as clean as you think. When did you last change the filters on the HVAC? [02:21]

The sun and trees are good for neutralizing bacteria and viruses. [05:50]

Most people don't realize how much they are asking of their lungs. [09:46]

If it is a polluted day outside, is it better to exercise inside? [10:59]

Even months after a fire, during the cleanup, we get much exposure to the pollution depending on how the wind is blowing. [13:01]

How does a filter actually catch the pollutants? [19:40]

Even when you're cooking healthy nutritious food, you're still creating these volatile organic compounds. [25:54]

Some air purifier machines have very sophisticated filters that can distinguish the amount oif dust currently in your air. [28:16]

Hot air rises and creates a pull. The system, especially in a two story house, is filtering in a different way.  [31:57]

You should get your indoor ait tested for mold and other particles that make people sick. [36:09]

Learning proper breathing exercises is very helpful. [37:53]

Wes, as a fireman, was terribly ill from not breathing clean air. [40:38]

Breath work was the mainstay of his recovery. [44:37]

People need to understand the importance of breathing.  [52:21]
