Going Green with an Organic Mattress: Why You Should Buy One

July 20, 2021 by Dennis Hornick

Why are organic vegetables healthier? Because they don’t have chemical pesticide residues that chemically cultivated, crops are exposed to. Organic milk is better for the body because they come from cows that don’t take artificial chemical hormones to increase production. The same principle applies to organic mattresses—keeping you away from the concoction of chemicals that conventionally produced mattresses have. Because organic mattresses are made using natural, non-toxic materials instead of chemically questionable synthetics, consumers who choose organic mattresses to take steps toward a healthier lifestyle by avoiding unnecessary exposure to chemicals.

Making gradual changes in your choice of beddings is a critical part of adopting a healthier lifestyle. While changing the surface where you lay at night may not seem like something that would impact your overall health at the first glance, looking into the dangers of conventional mattresses will convince you otherwise. Not only are traditionally produced mattresses drenched in potentially harmful chemicals, but they also go through production and manufacturing processes that contribute to the destruction of the environment.

Your choice of mattress is just as important as your organic food choices when you want to maintain a healthy lifestyle and reduce your overall carbon footprint. Mattresses have to comply with strict standards as stated by law, especially in terms of flame resistance. Foams and synthetic materials that are used to make traditional mattresses are often extremely flammable and don’t have the natural ability to retard fire. Manufacturers, in turn, treat them with chemicals to satisfy flame retardant requirements as dictated by standard regulations. These are chemicals that may cause many adverse effects to health as you and your family members come in contact with your mattress on a nightly basis. Exposure to mattress chemicals are closely linked to many health problems ranging from simple allergies to more serious conditions like asthma, hormonal imbalances, fertility problems, and even cancer and autism in susceptible individuals.

Going green and switching to organic mattresses doesn’t only keep you away from chemical exposure. Doing so also helps you reduce your carbon footprint as organic mattresses are produced in the most eco-friendly way possible. They are made from highly sustainable materials and are produced using processes that ensure the least impact on the environment. This is exactly why environment-conscious individuals choose organic mattresses and other organic products over the convenience and cheaper price of non-organic products, which often end up costing more in the long run.
