Negative ions are oxygen atoms given a negative charged by having an extra electron. ⚡
•
They are generated by a combination of nature's forces in action and are in very high concentrations after a thunderstorm and around moving water (the beach, waterfalls, rushing rivers, etc.) 🏖️🌊🏞️ ⛈️
•
Negative ions are what are responsible for that taste in the air and feeling you get breathing fresh air near the beach, waterfall or after a rainstorm. 🌧️🌩️
•
High concentrations of these negative ions in the air have been shown to: 
Improve mood (normalizing seratonin levels) ✔️
Reduce airborne pollutants ✔️
Clear the air of airborne allergens ✔️
Improve cognitive function ✔️
(By increasing flow of oxygen to the brain) 
Reduce headaches ✔️
Help with seasonal affective disorder ✔️
Enhance sex drive ✔️
Positivity affect circadian rythmicity, which improves sleep ✔️
•
Just giving you yet another reason (in addition to the hundreds of others) to get out to the beach to improve your health and quality of life 💯
