This Is How Your Bedding Is Secretly Making You Sick!

You're not going to want to hear this, but your mattress, your pillows, and your bedsheets are full of toxic additives like flame retardants, formaldehyde, heavy metals. Foam mattresses are known for letting out harmful chemicals like benzene and toluene, which are well-known carcinogens. Pillows, in fact, especially those made of polyester and foam, are not breathable. They collect dust mites compared to other pillows from natural fibers like cotton and wool. A study by Toxic Free Future revealed that 70% of our bedsheets contain PFAS, forever chemicals. These are linked to very serious health issues like cancer, immune system suppression, and even increased cholesterol. Since we sleep about 30% of our lives, it's really important to have low toxic bedding, mattresses, and pillows, especially for our kids and babies who sleep up to 13 hours a day and can't actually detoxify toxic chemicals the way a grown-up can.
