Ashley, what do 87 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 2: we know? 88 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 4: This is actually like not what you would expect it was. 89 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 3: She felt like maybe her air vents that were in 90 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 3: the heaters were creating some breathing problems. She said that 91 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 3: today the heating units of my apartment are being professionally cleaned. 92 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: And I think this was the culprit friendly reminder to 93 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 3: check your air quality of your home and stay on 94 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: top of regular maintenance. If you're a renter like me, 95 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 3: don't be afraid to ask in the last time the 96 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: air ducks have been clean. There are laws protecting us 97 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: in our health. She's felt like she was just like 98 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 3: a bit under the weather and like a mentally and emotionally, 99 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 3: just like not feeling together, which obviously can happen in 100 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 3: the midst of her cancer battle. But she hopefully, like 101 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,559 Speaker 3: in a few weeks, will know if she's feeling better. 102 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 4: And it could have just been that. 103 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 3: And this did remind me to change the air vents out, 104 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 3: which has been on my list. 105 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 2: Well, that's the air filter you're talking about, the air filter. 106 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, so tell me, do you get your air vents 107 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: cleaned out in your house? 108 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? Every other year, we're getting our air vents cleaned. 109 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 4: Oh darn, I gotta do that. 110 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: Like the duckworker needs to be cleaned out. And it's 111 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 2: not something you think about until you have it cleaned out, 112 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 2: and they'll send you some pictures of what your ducks 113 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: look like and you're like, oh, my goodness, that's just 114 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 2: spraying through our house. We also invested and I'll have 115 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 2: just post about it. Maybe I will too. We bought 116 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: this filter. It's a very nice like air filter for 117 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: the home. It's really nice. It sits kind of in 118 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,679 Speaker 2: our most used living area. That's really important also because 119 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: the stuff that that sucks in is pretty wild. Once 120 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: you look at the filter, once you need to change it. 121 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 2: It's important. And we've had the conversation before here about 122 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: you know, mold and dust and all those things that 123 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 2: can get built up in our homes that we don't 124 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 2: even know sometimes exist, but it can cause like really 125 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: severe health issues for those and so it's a great reminder. 126 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 2: Katie continue used to put really good information out there 127 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: in the world. In fact, Ashley, we talked about this 128 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: last week on the headlines. But Michelle Young I just 129 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: found out that she had mold in her house and 130 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 2: that was what caused her to leave her honeymoon early 131 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: because she's so sick. So if you're listening to this, 132 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: this is one of those things that you'll forget by 133 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 2: the time you get home. So either make a note 134 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 2: or if you're at home right now, call somebody to 135 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: do it. It is worth the investment to clean the 136 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: hidden areas of your home. It's really important. I'm actually 137 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: right now actually going through a four day juice cleanse 138 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: for kind of these kind of toxins. It's designed for 139 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: the metals and the molds and all those things, and 140 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: so I'm in the midst of it right now. So 141 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: if I snap at you and yell at you, it's 142 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: because I'm hungry. 143 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 4: So hungry anything. 144 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: I haven't eaten anything. I'm doing a water juice cleanse 145 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: and it's designed to kind of do a little bit. 146 00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's going to be the FI, 147 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: but at least as a little bit to like reset 148 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 2: my body, especially after travel, and when I travel, I 149 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: drink more than I want to and I eat unhealthy. 150 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: So I'm just trying to bounce back into like a 151 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 2: healthy place in my life. 152 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 4: Well, let me know how you feel afterward. 153 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 2: I will.
