The effects of negative air ions on living body were evaluated. Negative air ions were generated by an ultrasonic humidifier, and changes in heart rate, blood pressure, accelerated pulse wave and peripheral blood flow were measured. Negative air ions seemed to inhibit the sympathetic activity and to decrease blood vessel tone of the subjects whose sympathetic activities were accelerated.
