It is perfectly logical to say that plants are fundamental to our existence, our destiny is linked to these green beings in many ways, as they offer us food, medicines, wood, fibres, as well as regulating humidity and helping to stabilise the climate; but perhaps one of their most important functions is that through their respiration they absorb carbon dioxide and give us back oxygen, that irreplaceable compound we need to live.

Since time immemorial we have been taking advantage of these resources to subsist and increase our quality of life, so it is not unreasonable to think that we can gather some of these plants at home to take advantage of their properties. If you suffer from allergies or want to improve the quality of the air you breathe, then you need to get your hands on one of these oxygen-producing plants.
Plants that produce the most oxygen
- Ferns
Ferns are magnificent plants, not only because they have a vascular system, i.e. they have a sort of circulatory system for water and nutrients, but also because they are able to absorb harmful substances from the environment such as formaldehyde. Their large fronds take up a lot of carbon monoxide and transform it into oxygen.
