Wool BeddingBedding made with wool promotes dry and comfortable warmth all night long due to its hollow water-thirsty fibres ability to efficiently wick away sweat. On average, through perspiration and breathing, an adult can lose up to a pint of water vapour during a normal night of sleep. Menopausal women can lose even more than that! Without proper bedding with the ability to absorb moisture, a high body humidity level can raise heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, if you or your mattress feels damp or clammy it is likely you will toss, turn or awaken. Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture (10 times as much as synthetics) without showing signs of dampness. And with the proper care, captured moisture is released back into the air. If wool bedding is regularly aired, it will not require washing due to wool's natural self-cleaning effect. If washing is required, wash in cold water with organic wool detergents. Do not tumble dry. |
