1. A Great Oxygen Producing Houseplant

An abstract of the study published in Harvard University Extension observes that snake plant is one of the most oxygen-producing houseplants. Ficus and pothos are other plants that made to the list.

2. It Looks so Nice

Apart from being one of the best air purifying houseplants, it looks so nice and unique. The unsloped, thick, and tall foliage without stems look so artificial, and on top of it, the shades of green, yellow or gray with the horizontal stripes make it a desiring indoor plant.

3. It Removes Air Pollutants

One of the best snake plant health benefits is it can make its small contribution to get rid of toxic air pollutants. Other than CO2, it can absorb benzene, formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene. These cancer-causing pollutants are harmful to our health, a well-known proven fact.

4. It Absorbs CO2 in the Night

It’s a question of confusion and disbelief that snake plant or any other plant releases oxygen in the nighttime continuously. We don’t find any substantial evidence to prove that. However, it’s true that snake plant reduces the CO2 even in the night. It is due to the Crassulacean Acid Metabolism, the capability to perform a particular type of photosynthesis.

5. It is Effective against Allergies

A plant that releases oxygen, reduces CO2, and absorbs harmful volatile organic compounds can surely decrease the odds of airborne allergies. The snake plant is one such plant! Even if you’re using the air filters and purifiers, surrounding yourself with indoor plants help.

6. For Protective Energy and Feng Shui

Some people believe that the snake plant is not a good plant when it comes to feng shui. It is far from being true. If placed in an ideal position, it brings protective and purifying energy to the home or office. In feng shui, spiky plants are considered excellent against negative Chi. As they are so aggressive, you need to place them in less trafficked areas. Some of the best spots are Southeastern, Southern, and Eastern corners.


7. It is Low Maintainance

With all the other Snake Plant Benefits and facts listed above, one more to add is it’s one of the best low maintenance houseplants in the world. It can thrive in full sun, in full shade, in lack of water. Basically, it thrives on neglect.
