Indoor air quality may play a bigger role in immune health than most people realize. From homes and hospitals to airports and schools, the air we breathe can contain airborne pathogens, mold spores, and even chemical byproducts that impact respiratory health and overall immunity. But how much does it really matter — especially in midlife? In this episode, health journalist Natalie Tysdal interviews Dr. Kathryn Worrilow, founder and Chief Science Officer of LifeAire Systems. With decades of research spanning IVF labs, hospitals, senior living facilities, and public spaces, Dr. Worrilow explains what science shows about indoor air quality, infection risk, and air purification technology. You’ll learn: • How indoor air quality affects immune health • The difference between air filtration and air purification • Why some air purifiers may produce ozone • What hospitals have learned about reducing infection rates • Practical questions to ask about your home’s HVAC system • How airborne viruses and mold impact respiratory health This is not about fear. It’s about awareness. If you’ve struggled with allergies, mold concerns, frequent illness, or simply want to better understand how your environment supports immune resilience, this conversation offers grounded clarity. If you ever feel overwhelmed trying to navigate health information on your own, you don’t have to do it alone. Natalie works with women one-on-one to help them sort through conflicting advice and make informed, steady decisions about their health. She brings nearly 30 years of health journalism experience to help women see past hype and confusion.
