Memory Foam

If you suffer now or have ever suffered from allergies, you know how truly annoying and inconvenient they can be. Even if they are mild, it can still leave you feeling like you’re suffering from cold symptoms but without the relief of knowing they’ll fade in a few days. If you spend most of the spring hacking, sneezing, and dabbing watering eyes, you can at least find some relief at night when you’re indoors and away from these allergens.

But for many allergy sufferers, even this isn’t the case. If you’re sensitive to something like down or other feathers, you can lose some serious sleep trying to stifle the sniffling caused by your comforter and pillow. For people with these symptoms, it’s a great idea to invest in an allergy free pillow. Hopefully, this will give you enough relief to escape the allergens, at least until the next morning!

Whether it is food or pollen, there are lots of people who suffer from allergies. Many people seek medication to alleviate the symptoms related to allergies, but there are just as many people who simply suffer with these bothersome symptoms. If you find yourself allergic to the feathers that fill pillows, however, it can be a difficult allergy to ignore. Because your face is in direct contact with these feathers every night, it can actually impede your ability to sleep.

Repeatedly interrupting your sleep cycle in order to hack, sneeze, or cough can have serious and dire consequences if allowed to happen for extended periods of time. That’s why many people (even those most averse to using medication for allergies) are open to the idea of an anti allergen pillow. Made from a material such as foam or buckwheat, these alternative pillows can help you get your full eight hours. For the really sensitive users, however, they will want to stick with foam, which has been shown to be 100% hypoallergenic.

20 million Americans suffer from asthma and of these, 10 million (includes 3 million children) suffer from allergic asthma.

Research has shown that people do have the ability to control their disease thus reducing asthma symptoms and/or attacks.

The most common form of asthma is allergic asthma.  While the symptoms for allergic and non-allergic asthma are the same, allergic asthma is triggered by inhaling allergens such as dust mites, pollens, molds, pet dander, etc.

While it is important to consult an asthma specialist if you believe you or someone you know displays signs of asthma (coughing, wheezing, etc.) you may also consider a 100% hypo-allergenic premimum pillow foam.

Our winter season (especially for those living in Canada) does cause a person to spend more time indoors.  On the average, we spend one-third of each day at home and during this time we expose ourselves to potential indoor allergens.

The #1 indoor allergen for most people with allergies is the house dust mite.  These small microscopic creatures love to live in warm, cozy places like pillows, mattresses, box springs and duvet covers in your bedroom.There is a way you can protect yourself and your family to survive this allergen and others. 

Great improvements have been made in the manufacturing of bedding, pillows and linens such as hypo-allergenic pillows and removable and washable covers for pillows.

 Remember these dust mites can also be in hotels or a relative’s home so be smart and take your own pillow along with you.

Let’s keep those allergies to a minimum!

With the approach of our fall and winter seasons, we will all be spending more time indoors.  Interestingly enough the EPA ranks indoor air as one of the top 5 environmental health risks!

It is important to dust and vacuum frequently, clean the air ducts and be observant to signs of mold and moisture.  Here are some added tips to fight off those allergies:

• Anti-allergen sprays used on indoor fabrics
• Vacuuming with a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter
• Wash sheets and blankets weekly in 130 degree water
• HEPA filters on furnaces
• Consider bedding such as a pillow manufactured with 100% hypo-allergenic premium pillow foam

Are you aware of the war going on in your bedroom?  It’s the war between the microscopic mites and your bed!  Despite our best efforts at cleanliness, these tiny dust mites (50 of them can fit on the head of a pin!) live on the skin cells we shed.

How can we win this war against an enemy we can’t even see?  We’ll look at some front-line strategies for pillows. 

• Dust mites can be temporarily eliminated by washing pillows.
• Purchasing hypo-allergenic products or those containing anti-allergen features will be great advise to people with allergies.
• Encasing pillows will also be important as mites can quickly re-infest.

Have fun in the war against dust mites!

Our seasons go so quickly, we want to ensure we and our children enjoy them.  Don’t let a runny nose, itchy eyes or nasal congestion take away the joy of a season!

Here are a few quick tips to prevent allergy symptoms

Your children are worth it - help manage and perhaps avoid those allergy symptoms all year!

As simple as it may sound - you need to be aware that in addition to neck, back and shoulder pain, a wrong pillow may give you problems with fatigue and allergies.

If you suffer from allergies, you should be very selective when choosing a pillow.  A common reaction to ordinary pillows made with feathers or fiber filled cores is allergies.  Choose a 100% hypo-allergenic premium pillow foam thereby eliminating any allergic reaction!

Sleep well tonight!

My son always wakes up sneezing. I asked our pediatrician about it and the doctor says it might be dust mites. He said it was nothing really serious, but I should consider anti-allergy beddings.

I looked around and saw that these were quiet expensive, but I didn’t want my son to continue being uncomfortable, so I kept looking. Good thing too, because I found your anti allergen pillow online and it worked!

Let’s take some time to speak about one common allergy -  dust mites!  The best place to attack these critters is in the bedroom where we spend 1/3 of our day.  These pests thoroughly enjoy dead skin flakes as a food source so therefore we must beat them at their own game as an average bed can have up to 2 million dust mites!  Here’s a few tips to help you in the fight!

• Encase pillows, mattresses, box springs and comforters in dust proof, zippered covers
• Wash all bedding in hot water (130 F) weekly.
• Install high efficiency A/C filters to trap airborne allergens.
• Vacuum and clean carpets regularly.
• Purchase anti-allergen pillows.
