5 plants that release oxygen at night!

If folklore or supertitions are to be believed, one must not sleep under the Peepal tree for the fear of ghosts but did you know that sleeping near or under this tree can increase the longevity of your life? Yes, reason being that it emits oxygen during nighttime. Here are five plants that emit oxygen at night that you can install in your home!

Aloe Vera: Whenever a list of plants with benefits is made, Aloe Vera tops the charts always. Listed as one of the plants improving the air of NASA, Aloe Vera emits oxygen at night and increases the longevity of your life. It is almost a ‘no-maintenance’ plant and caters to a lot of beauty benefits too.

Snake Plant:
Much like Aloe Vera, snake plant also emits oxygen at night. What is another amazing fact is that it simultaneously takes in carbon dioxide. Amazing isn’t it? So, get one in your house and breathe in an healthy environment even during night.

Peepal tree: Despite the negative superstitions, Peepal tree has several benefits which makes it a rather important tree. It not only emits oxygen but can also be used to manage diabetes, treat constipation and asthma.

Orchids: Beautiful and beneficial, orchids are a perfect choice to be settled in the corner of your bedroom. Apart from emitting oxygen during the nighttime, Orchids also banish xylene – pollutant found in paints, and fills the room with fresh air to breathe.

Neem Tree: Synonymous to health benefits, Neem tree also purifies the air during nighttime by emitting oxygen. It is believed that Neem should be planted inside the house, especially in the centre of the court of the house, and the fact is scientifically true because it acts as a natural pesticide.
