People spend about one-third to one-quarter of the day sleeping and resting in the room and bedroom. This should be the place that makes people feel relaxed, but do you think the safest bedroom may actually endanger your health? "Yuanqi.com" follows the reminder from California gastric disease scientists, Dr. Saurabh Sethi and other experts. In the main room where we sleep, there are several "toxic" items that are exposed to you every day. It is best to quickly remove or replace them to avoid long-term use of them to harm your health.
1. Old occipitalAccording to the report of "NEW YORK POST", a gastric and kidney disease scientist in California, Saurabh Dr. Sethi reminded on Instagram video that the pillows and quilts we use every day to sleep will have saliva and sweat on them. Many people’s hair is not completely blown dry after taking a shower. The moisture in the hair will also cause bacteria to grow. The complication of these moisture liquids is not disgusting, but it is also easy to make the pillow odor, and it becomes a temperature bed for dust and allergens, bringing serious health risks, especially for people with respiratory diseases.
In addition, the cushion filling will be decomposed over a long period of time, making the old cushion flat and blocky. It will not only feel uncomfortable when you fall asleep, but may also cause pain in the crotal area and headache.
The woven expert Guo Yongxing once visited and pointed out that when the pillow made of cotton appears hardened, the pillow is brittle, yellow, etc., it means that the service life has reached. If it continues to be used, the neck will be empty and will be healthy. Generally speaking, the pillow of the cotton heart has the shortest life because it absorbs sweat and dander in the human body for a long time, making it easier to get stuck; the pillow is the most natural and antibacterial. The higher the density, the better the support force, and the longer the service life.
Therefore, if your pillow has been used for many years, please change it. As for how often do you change the pillow? It depends on the material and usage conditions. It is generally recommended to change the new one in 1-2 years, and the lactating pillow will be updated in about 2 to 4 years.
2. The bed wall, which has been used for more than ten years, pointed out that bed walls are like pillows and are also objects that we stick to and touch for a long time every day. With long-term use, bed walls will also gather dead skin cells, dust, moisture, cysts and other allergens that kill our bodies, contaminate the air in the bedroom and cause health problems.After using the bed for a long time, it will lose its original shape and support force, and may be sunken or raised. Lying on it will make your body stiff and sore, and you will not be able to rest well; some beds will squeak when sitting down and get up, which will squeak and irritate people on the side of the pillow to sleep.
Using beds that have been used for too many years will reduce sleep quality and cause chronic back pain. Many people now have chronic back pain. If you keep seeing them well, you should think about whether the beds in the bedroom have not been replaced for many years.
Many people have used bed walls in their homes for more than ten or twenty years but have not changed. Home furnishing brand HOLA TELLI and Le were visited and said that bed walls should be cleaned at least once a month, and can use a detacher to clean the surface cloth to remove the breeding bacteria. It is also recommended that it is best to add an all-inclusive maintenance pad and replace it every 5 years to make the correct use. Some businessmen also suggest that the head of the bed is lowered down every three months, so that by changing the position where the bed is subjected to a more concentrated weight, the spring can be prevented from deforming.
3. Deodorant/Air Freshing AgentMany people also put deodorant or air freshener in the bedroom. However, in fact, many deodorants may contaminate the air in the room. Strong smell may also cause headaches, or cause pruritus, redness, and rashes due to skin allergic reactions.
Sethi explained that according to a study, 86% of the test air fresheners contain salt phthalate, which is a chemical substance related to the hazards of the reproductive system and asthma; some also release prostate organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, benzene and toluene, which can stimulate the respiratory system and cause cough, wheezing and shortness of breath. Other studies have shown that long-term exposure to synthetic fragrances may increase the risk of chronic diseases and cancer.
4. Unsealed but no longer used care products or perfumes for girls are also indispensable items in the bedroom. However, the ingredients of those cosmetics or perfumes that have been closed for a long time and are no longer used may have changed, and using them again may cause skin or respiratory allergies.The bedroom is a space where we rest and charge every day, but many people turn it into a mess over time. In fact, too many, old or unused items can affect sleep quality, health and mental health. Just look for things that you have used for a long time and have not used in the bedroom for a day, and it will be wiped out.
