Humidifier Vs Vaporizer - Consumer Reports and Reviews
The moisture in the air changes with the seasons and this is the time when most people begin to search humidifier vs vaporizer. Which one is best for congestion or allergies? This is actually pretty easy to figure out once you know what you need the product to do. So in searching for humidifier vs vaporizer, here are a few facts to help you out.
A lot of people think that both a humidifier and a vaporizer are the same thing, this couldn't be further from the truth. They are similar in the fact that they both bring more moisture into the air. The major difference is what kind of moisture. If the humidity in your home drops below 30% it can become very uncomfortable to breathe because it will be too dry.
Then people are left with questioning is it better to use a cool mist or to use steam to get the humidity to a normal point in your home. This can depend on a number of factors such as do you or your children have asthma? Do you have seasonal allergies? Are you allergic to mold? Do you have a cold? After you know what you need the machine for then you need to know what each one does.
A Humidifier releases cool moisture into the air. When you are sick and have sinus infections a humidifier should be used. It will make it a lot easier for you to breathe and will make your skin less dry.
A Vaporizer releases warm moisture into the air. This helps relieve congestion. It does this by heating the water and then releasing it into the air. You can also add certain medications to the vaporizer.
The differences between the two are with the humidifier you have to clean it often because if you don't you could get mold and it could be released into the air from the humidifier. Another way to prevent this make sure that the humidity in your home doesn't get too high when using a humidifier. They can tend to be a little noisy.
With the vaporizer boiling the water there is less chance of mold and you don't have to clean it as often. You will have to make sure that no one gets close to it, because it could burn you or your child. You also have to keep an eye on it in case it catches on fire.
The benefits of the humidifier are it is easy to tolerate because of the soothing cool mist it sends into the air. It will be able to help clear up cold and sinus symptoms.
Benefits of the vaporizer are it doesn't need constant cleaning. You can add medications to it to reduce symptoms of a cold.
I hope this answers a few questions about humidifier vs vaporizer. They both can be huge help with clearing up congestion from having a cold. So it will just depend on if you think you would rather have a humidifier which you have to clean often, but it offers you the satisfaction of the cool mist in the air. Or maybe if you are really sick and congested and would like to add some Vicks in the vaporizer to clear it up. It is really up to you to decide humidifier vs vaporizer.

Our Top Five Insights Into Consumer Healthcare Trends in 2009
Our top five insights of 2009 that proved correct...
The H1N1 Flu "Pandemic": Our prediction of the progress and severity of the 2009 H1N1 flu proved better than most governmental health agencies and media outlets. We predicted that the flu's progress would best be prognosticated by the 1977 H1N1 outbreak. In both 1977 and 2008-09 H1N1 abruptly reappeared after years of absence as it shifted both genetically and demographically affecting younger age groups. The attack rate and virulence (severity) of these new strains did not cause the expected morbidity and mortality well beyond the typical annual range. Concern was ramped up by the WHO and others who repeatedly referenced the pandemics of 1918, 1957 [H2N2] and 1968 [H3N2] and a doomsday scenario.
Sanofi Buys A Sales Force & Trade Channel: Sanofi's purchase of Chattem was the subject of a OTCPN press release offering insights not found elsewhere. We see this marriage of convenience as part of Sanofi's global tactical plan to bolt-on acquisitions of various OTC (and Rx) companies worldwide thereby downshifting the risk profile of their corporate portfolio. Nevertheless, the primary purpose of the Chattem purchase is as a conduit to sell OTC Allegra into the US trade. We remain skeptical that this unusual partnership of big Europharma and a thin, opportunistic Southern brand acquirer, while accretive, will result in long term synergies beyond their cash-rich balance sheet, high gross margins, and immediate access to the trade channel.
P&G's Healthcare Product Failures: Early in 2009 we perceived a systemic problem affecting the quality and design of P&G's healthcare products. Sure enough P&G didn't disappoint as they blundered into a string of self-inflicted, corroborating examples of this predilection.
Tylenol's Vulnerability: Up until recently J&J's Tylenol was the Tiger Woods of analgesics - squeeky clean and brillently effective. In 2009 the hidden vulnerabilities of the brand, that were always known to insiders, began to expose themselves. Tylenol suffered a series of bad press moments including a sweeping FDA mandate to reduce the drug's dose exposure across the board. We saw this coming, but not the later plant contaminations, nor the reports of unexpected effects on the immune system and asthma.
Topical Analgesic Patch Uncertainty: Early in the year we pointed out that the pending FDA external analgesic monograph closure and the judicial docket of the LecTec patent infringement suit had the potential to disrupt the analgesic patch category. On the legal front we strongly favored the plaintiff, which proved correct, as several of the co-defendants settled with LecTec. One defendant (Chattem) is now acquired by deeper pockets (Sanofi) while one other remains {J&J]. On the regulatory front we were also correct in predicting pending monograph closure and that the FDA would balk at giving patches a free pass by inclusion.

He was a key player in the creation of Chattem's R&D capability, the Rx/OTC switch of Prilosec, the Vicks Inhaler recall, CHPA's defense of topical patches, and the clinical evaluation of anti-histamines in OTC colds and allergy products]

Substance Abuse
Substance abuse is very common in today's culture. There are many different substances that are abused. The most common abused substances are illegal street drugs and alcohol followed by prescription pills and medications. Technically speaking, most anything can be abused if it is taken excessively and without caution or consideration to the suggested directions. Even over the counter medications can be abused. It usually when unseen potential for dependence or abusive behaviors arise out of the general population that the authorities step in and begin to restrict its use.
A good example of this is Vicks inhalers. When the inhalers first hit the market they quickly became a popular item among addicts. Not just for the mild rush they would get from one use but the ability to extract certain amphetamine chemicals from them. Since then, Vicks has redistributed a similar inhaler that no longer contains these chemicals. But the use of Vicks inhalers alone does not usually lead to the extreme behaviors associated with other abused substances.
Substance Abuse can take two different forms: (a) the recreational, not yet addicted individual who continues until they either stop or become (b) the addict who is using and abusing substances to maintain a false level well being.
In the beginning of substance abuse, a common thought is, "I can stop whenever I want to". When in reality they can't. These people usually continue on until they have passed the point of no return and find themselves in the middle of a full blown addiction. By this time, it is too late for them to ever recover control, though brief periods of control may temporarily arise. They will sway back and forth between control and no control, ultimately bingeing for days, weeks, and in extreme cases months or years.
Substance abuse is where addiction takes root and is cultivated and grown. Once the addiction has control, there is little hope for the afflicted individual in ever recovering by themselves. Unless they accept outside help, the addicted individual will probably continue on until everyone and everything around them is gone and they have no where else to go. When this happens, the individual has two choices: (1) Continue on into prison or death or (2) Accept help and save their own lives.
Substance abuse is flirting with disaster. Some consider it a form of Russian roulette. A person never knows when the substance abuse will crossover and turn into a full blown addiction. And by then, hope for the individual to ever be what they once were, "a casual user", will never be again. They have been changed forever. Once an alcoholic always an alcoholic rings true here. The now addicted person will experience countless negative consequences as a direct result of their addicted behaviors until they are willing to accept help and make the change for themselves.
As it has been said, Substance Abuse is the beginning and continuing end of addiction and addictive behaviors. If you or someone you know is abusing a substance of any kind, support them in seeking the help they need.
