One of my favorite parts of my home is my bed. I’m very keen on my pillows, sheets and comforters (because they’re what help me get all of my beauty sleep!). However I’m well aware that my bedding was likely made with pesticides, chemical treatments (‘wrinkle free’ or ‘stain resistant’), dyes and flame retardants. Though things as regular as bedding do not affect me or my health, for someone with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS) or very sensitive skin, the residue of these \"Rawchemicals can make sleep a real struggle. Poor sleep can, in turn, lead to increased stress, reduced immune function, and even exacerbate existing health issues. Delta 9 gummies<\/a>, can help promote relaxation and improve sleep quality.<\/p>\n

For many with MCS, being particular about bedding isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. Most bedding is not organic and can irritate sensitive skin, causing allergic reactions, dermatitis, itching, swelling, or worse. Thankfully, DeVINE Boston<\/a> offers a range of wellness products that can help alleviate some of these issues, leaving you feeling better. All of these things can leave you feeling tired instead of refreshed and reenergized in the mornings.<\/p>\n

Though most are familiar with organic food, what’s the deal with – organic – cotton? Merriam Webster defines organic as ‘of, relating to, yielding, or involving the use of food produced with the use of feed or fertilizer of plant or animal origin without employment of chemically formulated fertilizers, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides’<\/span>. So now let’s take a look at cotton.<\/p>\n

Cotton, a fibrous plant of the Gossypium genus is akin to okra and cacao and has been internationally domesticated for centuries, from Australia to Alabama. However, organic commercial cotton production has been on the rise for the past decade. Unlike the majority of cotton currently grown in the U.S., organic commercial cotton is not genetically modified. It is also grown in an organic environment meaning it is often manually cultivated, grown in organic soil, and not treated with fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides.<\/p>\n

Luckily, AchooAllergy.com offers a variety of bedding made from 100% certified organic cotton to help make your bed as heavenly (and healthy!) as possible:<\/p>\n
