Forest Air Benefits

Language

Non-fiction

In an increasingly urbanized world, Forest Air Benefits explores the profound impact of forest environments on human health, focusing on the emerging field of forest medicine. The book investigates how exposure to forest air, rich in phytoncides and terpenes, can significantly reduce stress and enhance immune function. Intriguingly, research indicates that these airborne chemicals can lower cortisol levels, a key stress hormone, and boost the activity of natural killer (NK) cells, which are vital for fighting infections.

The book begins by tracing the origins of Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) and providing a foundational understanding of the human stress response and immune system. It then delves into the specific effects of phytoncides and terpenes on stress hormones and immune function, drawing from peer-reviewed studies worldwide. Dosage and exposure recommendations are also presented.

By consolidating research from biology, psychology, and environmental science, this book offers valuable insights for healthcare professionals, researchers, and anyone interested in natural health and wellness, providing actionable strategies for incorporating forest bathing into daily life for preventative healthcare.
