A WATERFALL OF HEALTH
What are the health benefits of waterfalls?
Waterfalls generate negative ions. They have a positive effect on the air quality and our personal health. These ions help us to feel calm, reduce stress and depression, and boost our immune system. There’s also evidence negative ions regulate sleep patterns and mood, and they also increase energy and alertness.
Ever wondered why the sea air is good for you or why you sleep like a baby after a day spent outdoors? Or why the air smells so fresh near to waterfalls or after a thunderstorm? Well, there’s more to fresh air than meets the eye.
That’s because of NEGATIVE IONS, a.k.a anions, which are negatively charged atoms, abundant in the fresh air close to moving water.
Scientists have shown that the benefits of fresh air and its abundance of negative ions are numerous:
- Reduces free radicals (atoms with unpaired electrons that scour the body seeking other electrons to pair up, thereby causing damage to cells, proteins and DNA)
- Revitalizes cell metabolism
- Enhances immune functioning
- Helps to purify the blood
- Balances autonomic nervous system, promoting deep sleep + healthy digestion
- Promotes biochemical reactions that increase levels of serotonin
- Alleviates depression and stress
- Boosts daytime energy
So if negative ions are negatively charged atoms, what’s an atom?
They are one of the smallest constituting units of all ordinary matter, i.e. if you were to zoom in on any material with a microscope, they are the building blocks of this material.
Atoms themselves are made from electrons and protons, and when the atom has an unequal number of protons to electrons, you have an ion. When the ion loses at least one electron, it is positively charged and is called a cation (+), and when an ion has extra electrons, it is negatively charged and is called an anion (-).
Ions are everywhere in nature and create some of the most beautiful phenomena of our world, such as the sun’s luminescence.
Okay, science lesson over. Mostly…
Due to the interaction between water and ions, negative ions are found in abundance near to moving water, from your own shower to waterfalls and sea.
By contrast, a higher concentration of positive ions are found in crowded areas and confined spaces. For example, in offices, industrial areas, schools and cars.
Due to their opposite electrical charge, anions (-) attract the cations (+) of airborne particles to make a heavier ionic compound, which is then attracted to any nearby “earthed conductor”, i.e. the wall or floor. Negative ions thereby clean the air of pollen, mould spores, bacteria and viruses as well as dust, cigarette smoke and pet dander. The NHS (British National Health Service) are reported to have tried using an electronic “air ionizer” to purify the air, with amazing effects – reducing the infection rate of a specific bacteria to zero.
Research suggests that 1 in 5 of us are extra sensitive to these ions. If you’re one of them it means you suddenly feel like you’re full of energy when you’re by a waterfall or in forest.
If this isn’t enough to convince you to visit your nearest waterfall asap, then perhaps the beauty of waterfalls alone is enough. Read on to find out about some of our favourite waterfalls to visit around the world, they are food for the soul. And comment below if you have your own suggestions…
Germany and Austria
Whilst there are waterfalls all over this green and mountainous land, from the white cliffs of the north sea to the fairytale like peaks of the black forest, the Bavarian alps in the south of Germany have an extraordinary abundance of waterfalls. Some famous names include the Zipfelsbach wasserfall, Röthbachfall and the Geistreklamm waterfall. If you want to learn more about the nature of Germany, check out our post on the most beautiful forests in Germany.
Of course, in Austria waterfalls are also abundant, such as the beautiful Riesachfälle pictured below.
