Reduce Inflammatory Damage
Singlet oxygen can help limit the exposure to internal free radicals produced during inflammation, leading to less tissue damage and boosted immune response.
Our Technology
Picture this: You take a deep breath of fresh air, feeling invigorated as oxygen floods your lungs. But what if oxygen could do even more for you? Enter singlet oxygen, a high-energy form that offers health benefits beyond the ordinary oxygen molecules we’re familiar with.
What Is Singlet Oxygen?
Singlet oxygen is simply an energetically excited and more active form of the oxygen molecule present all around us – the well-known O2 you’re breathing in as you read this. Oxygen is essential to life, as it is directly involved in the production of energy required for all of the body’s functions. But the omnipresent oxygen molecule usually exists in a triplet state (3O2) – a safe, though not very reactive state.
Through excitation and reaction, an electron spin shift occurs and forms singlet oxygen (1O2). Singlet oxygen will inevitably revert back to regular, triplet oxygen at the end of its short lifespan. Fun fact: plants can also produce singlet oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis?
Breathe In Research-Backed Benefits
Reactive states of oxygen can get a bad rep, but singlet oxygen is a well-studied state of oxygen that is already in use in some medical settings – such as Photodynamic Therapy.
In low levels, it has shown to play an essential role in the regulation of several bodily functions by introducing low level stress. This triggers a form of stress-response hormesis – a term that means beneficial effects of something that would otherwise be harmful in high levels. Essentially, it helps your body activate its natural healing and defense mechanisms. Breathing singlet oxygen can help:
Support Respiratory Health
Not only can singlet oxygen destroy environmental triggers, it also improves tissue resiliency, reduce damage from inflammation and boosts overall immunity against diseases.
Energize Mind and Body
Singlet oxygen interacts with your body’s cells to increase energy production. Your mental and physical fuel tanks run full!
Boost Athletic Performance
Enabling your body to enhance oxygen utilization in muscles and tissues, singlet oxygen can make for a stronger athletic performance and faster recovery.
Ease Anxiety and Promote Sleep
Singlet oxygen acts on the body's nervous system and natural mechanisms for relaxation, helping reduce insomnia and stimulate restful sleep.
Improve Skin Health
Singlet oxygen has been seen to promote the production of collagen and new skin cells. This can help reduce inflammation and speed up recovery for skin concerns like eczema, acne and more.

How it Works: Our Patented Design
Step 1
The surrounding air flowing through ZMedicAir devices first gets cleaned and purified through our multi-step filters to neutralize pollutants and common triggers
- The Cold Catalyst Filter captures formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, TVOC, and other harmful gases released by household furniture and fabrics.
- The Cellular-Activated Carbon Filter traps dust and odor particles.
- The 5-Microns Antimicrobial Filter kills common bacteria found in the air.
- The HEPA Filter eliminates particles larger than 0.01 microns. Think bacteria, fungi, viruses, and allergens.
Step 2
Our technology, and the unique feature of our air purifiers, is a patent-protected metal honeycomb plate sitting at the output vent. The special blend of metals creates an electrical energy reaction with the air flowing through, generating singlet oxygen without the use of radiation like in most other use cases. To our knowledge, this method of producing singlet oxygen is a first!
To best reap the benefits of this technology, we recommend placing your ZMedicAir device close to you instead of a room corner like traditional air purifiers.
