Making Sure You Get The Right Allergy Bedding

By Michael Dennis


If you suffer from allergies it can be very uncomfortable when dealing with your day to day life. This can result in difficulty sleeping and this in turn can lead to more health problems if not properly dealt with. However with a few tips and the right allergy bedding it is possible to sleep in comfort without worrying about an allergic reaction.

A conventional bed will usually have a mattress, few sheets, a duvet and a pillow. The duvet and pillow will often have covers and casings as well. For a lot of people who do not have allergies they tend to use natural materials such as cotton because they find that particular material comfortable.

One of the big problems is that bedding often attracts dust mites. These are especially bad for causing allergy flare ups. Therefore you want to reduce their presence as much as possible and remove as many of their breeding grounds as much as possible so that you can improve your sleep experience.

The first thing is to change your pillow. Pillows often attract dust mites so these should be washed as often as possible. Remember when washing your pillows to use a detergent that is free from fragrances and dye in order to reduce the risk of getting a reaction from the detergent.

Another way to reduce the risk of exposure to allergens is to use casings that trap dust mites. Ideally you want a fabric that has a pore size of less than 10 microns. The reason this is important is that 10 microns is the average size of a dust mite and so this will prevent them getting in.

You also need to be sure that it does not have any flame retardants or other forms of chemical additions. The danger with this is that these chemicals can also potentially cause a reaction and this in turn could worsen symptoms. This ought to be clearly stated on the label and anything that has been designed for people with allergies ought to be free of chemicals that could potentially worsen symptoms.

If you know someone else who suffers from allergic reactions then ask them what they recommend. This will often make easier to narrow down options and select something appropriate. If you do not know anyone in your family or any friends with allergy problems you may want to check social media or websites for feedback.

In short there are a number of factors to consider when choosing allergy bedding. You should also look for vacuum cleaners and other devices that have been designed with people who suffer from allergic reactions in mind. Use your regular search engine to compare the various products available as well as looking for tips to keep your home as allergy free as possible!
