Are Ducts Making You Sick?Written by Ed Bishop
If you have a heating or cooling systems that uses air ducts, you could have a problem.There are many duct systems that are poorly designed and installed that have ability to bring pollutants into your home. Some are ducts are located in wet or damp crawl spaces and basements. I've seen some of these areas and some look like an open sewer. Having ducts that are not properly sealed or insulated in these locations can draw moisture, mold, bacteria and even carbon monoxide into building. Unsealed ducts have same effect as opening a hatch to these ares, only difference is that you don't see it and fan from heating or cooling appliance will force more of pollutants into living space at a much higher rate.

When you sleep longer you limit your prior wakefulness which puts stress on a number of other factors such us your melatonin hormone levels, your exposure to sunlight, and your body temperature rhythm. Getting longer sleep or "catching up on sleep" only weakens your sleep system, which in turn can even lower your immune system.

It is only during first 3 - 4 hours of sleep that we experience most of State 3 and Stage 4 sleep. Sleeping longer than you usually do isn't physically beneficial to you in anyway, and puts your body temperature rhythm out of balance. MYTH #3) “I feel so low on energy, I Must Get More Sleep” TRUTH: More Sleep DOES NOT Provide You With more Energy! You don't need MORE sleep, you need QUALITY sleep.
