What is the best quilt or pillow to use if I suffer from allergies? OR What if I am allergic to feathers & down?
Medical experts state that the HOUSE DUST MITE is the main cause of allergic conditions such as asthma, eczema, and allergic rhinitis. The house dust mite thrives in every home, particularly where central heating, double-glazing, and other insulating features combine to produce damp, humid conditions. However, because good-quality, natural products have very tightly woven casings to keep the fillings in, these casings also help to keep dust mites and their residues out. We use the same high-quality casings on our man-made products for the same benefit. It is highly unlikely that the feathers and down in a good-quality product, which have been thoroughly washed, will cause any allergic reaction. Experts do recommend that the bedding of allergy-sufferers be washed regularly to remove dust mites or their debris.
