When was the last time you dusted your house?
Or vacuumed? Because research shows a link between a dirty house and weight gain! Duke University researchers found that the chemicals released from furniture, rugs and pollution end up in the dust around our house. And breathing in chemical-laden dust makes fat cells swell and multiply! But when the dust goes away, the problem goes away. So regularly dust and vacuum, and invest in a HEPA air purifier for the room you spend the most time in. If you’re trying to lose weight, that may be the added ingredient that helps you start shedding pounds.
