4. Rubber Plant

Rubber plants are very good at improving indoor air quality because they produce more chlorophyll than other indoor plants, which means more oxygen. Allergies, asthma, illness and frequent headaches are some of the issues caused by airborne particles in your house. According to the same NASA study, rubber plants also remove toluene, xylene, carbon monoxide, and formaldehyde, all of which are the main drivers of indoor air pollution.

They can eliminate up to 90% of the chemicals found in your home in just two days! The leaves grow pretty fast and contribute to the absorption of toxic substances like mold and other allergens, making it an ideal plant for those who struggle with common dust allergies.
