3. Peace Lily

The peace lily does a tremendously great job of preventing many lung and respiratory issues. According to a study, this lovely houseplant eliminates volatile organic compounds, commonly known as VOCs, through its leaves. It also removes acetone from the air, which can cause hypotension, fatigue, and even slurred speech.

NASA also showed in their study that peace lilies are effective at absorbing pollutants from the air. They remove the harmful chemicals by trapping them in their leaves and then sending them to their roots. Once the chemicals reach there, the microbes found in the soil destroy them.

The peace lily can even absorb mold spores! This makes this houseplant very effective in areas with high levels of humidity, such as bathrooms.
