Mattresses and Pillows Linked to Many Illnesses

[Guest guest]

I came across this article on the internet.

Do any of you have problems at home on your mattresss that go away when you

sleep somewhere else? I do. I thought it was the change of air (don't laugh!) -

truly, I did. I think I will take off my mattress topper and see what

happens!

Hi Shan,

I have trouble if I sleep in any bed besides my own. I have 2 memory foam

mattress toppers, so about 4 inches of padding, plus a memory foam mattress from

Wal-Mart under that. It has to be so soft for me as the tender points in my

hips, shoulders otherwise has to much pressure on them. I feel sorry for those

who have bed sores, oh, how that must smart.

ME robbed me of sleep for 15 years, MCS from the bed furniture floor

covering curtains and bedding clothes, made it worse.l still cant

touch newspaper ink..

I have slept much better since getting an old fashioned cotton and

wool filled matteress enclosed with Ticking (Ticking is a very

thick strong woven cotton)

l have bought a real wood sleigh bed, all wood construction(slats)

which are much healthier as the air circulates underneath and helps

kill the bed bugs.

The most natural pillows are down, only buy the best quality down as

the cheaper stuff has dander (Dirt) in it costly for manufacturers

to wash out!

Nowadays you can wash down products in a washing machine, with wool

wash soap flakes, but no tumble drying...

Flannelette sheets that are tumble dried and fluffy, get double

sided brushed ones if you can, if not put two together on the bed

stops bed sores...

l have also have a 100% wool filled duvet cover from New Zealand,

bought on E-Bay for £40 instead of £200?

On the top l have a cellular wool blanket, finished of with a good

old fashioned candlewick bedspread..

Having a sleigh bed (high headboard and footboard)stops the covers

falling of in the night.. If you have a double bed and find it hard

to lift the covers, when your bed is made up, fold under the spare

edges sides and bottom of duvet, like an envelope this keeps the

heat in and it will be much lighter.. To support the painfull parts

you cant beat a folded up " down " pillow..

I will never buy a memory mattress, when the sleeping body heats

them up, they give of chemicals all night every night..perspiration

apparantly makes this much worse...It has been suggested they could

be indicated in cot deaths even of grown up people!

Happy Snoozing
