Description
In this informative video, we explore the critical importance of pillow hygiene and quality for a healthier night's sleep. You'll learn how pillows can harbor up to 30% of their weight in harmful bacteria and allergens, contributing to respiratory issues and poor sleep quality. We discuss recommended washing frequencies, emphasizing the need to clean pillows every 1 to 2 months at temperatures of 140°F to effectively eliminate dust mites and bacteria. Additionally, we'll guide you in selecting high-quality pillows made from natural materials like organic cotton, wool, or natural latex, along with key certifications to look for. By prioritizing pillow hygiene and choosing the right materials, you can significantly enhance your sleep environment and minimize health risks.
