An enterprising Aussie is causing a stir online with his plans to sell 'outback air' to overseas customers.
The product by Adelaide-native Joe Duchiera, Ozi Air, is set to launch in the Chinese market within days -- and it comes with some pretty wild healthy claims.
The product website states: "if you're searching for the cleanest and freshest air in the world, we believe that Ozi Air is it."
The e-commerce site also claims their 8L cans of 'outback air' have a number of health and wellness benefits, including aiding with prenatal health, boosting immunity, improving digestion, preventing migraines and fatigue, and easing pollution related illness.
For the latter, they recommend "a can of 100% fresh Ozi Air for your daily portable air supply."
Cans of Ozi Air will retail from $23.99 for single cans, or $179.99 for 12 packs.
The health claims on the website cite general studies around the benefits of fresh air, but do not feature any proven benefits correlated to direct use of the Ozi Air product.
"Specialised equipment" is used to test and capture air from "off the grid" outback locations chosen to be as "remote as possible", for the purest air in South Australia, according to the website's 'About' page.
It is tested "multiple times before it reaches you".
On the product's official Facebook page, there are further claims that "Fact...Did you know? Ozi Air is good for children", "Ozi Air can assist in learning!" and "Fresh air can take your fitness to the next level."
Customers breathe in Ozi Air via a face mask attachment, with each can containing around 10 minutes of Australian air.
9Honey Travel reached out to Ozi Air via email for comment on the research behind their health claims, but hadn't heard back at the time the article was published.
Strangely, this isn't even the first company to sell cans of clean air to tourists.
Late last year, a New Zealand company was slammed online for selling cans of pure Kiwi air.
The company, Kiwiana, came under fire after a traveller shared a post to Twitter featuring a two-pack of their canned air retailing for NZ$98 ($90).

Chinese are a laughing stock, LOL.
