Harmful to health: a doctor told what kind of bed linen you shouldn’t buy – it can provoke skin problems
Bed linen affects the quality of your night's rest.
Therefore, when choosing it, you should pay attention not only to its appearance, but also to its safety.
Pathophysiologist Elena Paretskaya shared the details, as reported by Doctor Peter .
The specialist noted that blankets and pillows may well have synthetic filling.
They are elastic, hypoallergenic and can retain heat quite well.
Speaking about the material of bed linen, the expert recommended giving preference to natural fabrics in such cases.
It can be cotton, linen or silk.
She explained that such materials almost never cause allergic reactions, absorb sweat well, and also have good thermal conductivity.
However, in this situation the material may contain some synthetics.
However, the doctor does not recommend purchasing bed linen made only from synthetic materials.
According to her, such fabric can contribute to increased sweating and also accumulate static electricity.
In addition, the specialist emphasized that the comfort of underwear can also depend on the frequency of washing.
Experts believe that it should be changed at least once a week.
After all, sweat and epithelial particles can accumulate on bed linen. And this, in turn, can create conditions for the reproduction of bacteria.
Earlier, the doctor spoke about mistakes made when washing dishes.
