The Chemicals In Your Bedding And How To Avoid Them.

Physicians and other health professionals are becoming more and more aware of the possible effects these toxic chemicals and the increased numbers in childhood disorders as well as SIDS. Infants spend an average of 12 hours a day in their cribs and every time your child inhales air they are less than a foot away from a mattress that contains harmful toxic chemicals. Your family’s bedding is also treated with formaldehyde and harsh industrial fire retardant chemicals. These chemicals can accumulate in your blood and cause respiratory problems as well as cancer. There are no requirements on labeling these chemicals that pollute air, cause asthma and learning disorders.

You can take control of your family’s safety simply by replacing mattresses, blankets and sheets with organic bedding. This would eliminate toxic chemicals in a place where your children spend a good portion of their time. Organic cotton is naturally grown and has a low rate of combustion eliminating harsh industrial fire retardant chemicals. The naturally grown cotton used to make your family’s bedding does not contain phthalates, vinyl (PVC), polyurethane foam or toxic fire retardant chemicals.
