I do not ever wonder that most pillows begin growing mold, bacteria and dust mites soon after you start using them. I only know that it grows mold, bacteria and dust mites not after I use it or how many weeks that pillow cases has to wash or put the pillows under the sun as long as I like to do or as I can see that it is already dirty. :-) It is just lately that I discover it. That pillow cases has to wash every other week to maintain cleanliness even if it is not visibly dirty. According to the research or the medical doctors that we breathe moisture into our pillows as we sleep, thus we also breathing the mold, bacteria and dust in there! That is why we have asthma, sinusitis, and other dust allergy acquires in our home. I do not say this is the only way we can have the allergen but this is one of the major cause because we use our pillows often especially the normal six to eight hours of sleep during night aside from taking a nap or some like to just stay at their bedroom hugging their pillows during relax time. So you do the math. Ooh my... You may like to watch the video below for some proof that a doctor told how pillows affect allergen problem. Remember, it is the pillow not the mechanical thing or the brand he talks about. The mechanical function is a matter of choice is the key point. For now, the video is below:
Because of this, I like the fact that National Allergy designed an exclusive new Healthy Dreams pillow with the Micrenza bio-filter to be the first truly germ-free, mold-free, and allergen-free pillow available, so we can sleep safely without breathing in harmful biological particles that cause congestion and infection. What I like from most of this pillow is that its filter has the same bacteria filtration efficiency as an N95-rated surgical mask and I like the idea that National Allergy have treated the cotton shell with a germ and mold fighting agent to keep anything from growing on the surface and I believe that no other pillow has a filter to protect us. So for me, if I have a budget for fancy and comfortable stuff then I have to buy this but if my budget is tight, then I will just set aside then until I have enough to buy for it. I really hope to have this.
