How to Select Bedding When You Are Health Conscious

These days, most of us lead busy lives that are packed full with work, school, social obligations, and responsibilities around the home. With so much going on, it’s easy to feel run down. To that end, many people are choosing to invest in activities designed to boost physical and mental health. We’re talking about eating right, exercising, spending time out in nature, and enjoying a little self-care. However, there’s one element of wellness that tends to be neglected. Although the average person spends seven to nine hours a day in bed, few of us invest in bedding designed to boost our health and help us get more rest. A leader in bedding and accessories, Latest Bedding supplies a wide selection of sustainable bedding products for individuals looking to maximize health and productivity. Keep reading to learn more about health-conscious bedding, courtesy of our team of experts. 


Appropriate Thread Count

While thread count isn’t the be all and end all when it comes to bedding, it can be an important consideration when selecting health-conscious products. That’s because purchasing sheets or comforter sets with the wrong thread count can negatively impact your ability to sleep. In particular, individuals with heat sensitivities or easily irritated skin may struggle to sleep under higher thread counts. Comforters featuring a thread count of 600 or higher, for example, tend to be on the warm side. So those who sleep hot may struggle to get through the night without sweating. Similarly, higher counts can be prone to tearing, ripping, and pilling, all of which can be unpleasant. If you prefer your bedding light and airy, we suggest choosing bedding products with thread counts between 250 and 400. Along with being crisp and cooling, bedding with this thread count range tends to be durable, holding up even after hundreds of washes. 


Natural Fibers

The next step in the journey toward health-conscious bedding is to evaluate the materials used in your sheets and comforters. While microfibers and synthetics may have a lower price tag, they aren’t as beneficial when it comes to general wellness. That’s because microfiber is made from manufactured materials such as polyester. Not only do these fabrics tend to trap heat and moisture, causing sleepers to wake up in a pool of sweat, but they also create static when you toss and turn. If you want to snuggle up at night in silky-smooth bedding, it pays to choose 100 percent cotton over synthetics. 


Along with feeling great against skin, cotton has the benefit of being health friendly. Natural and sustainable, cotton is less likely to cause allergies and irritations. So it’s a great choice for both children and adults. Additionally, this fabric is known for protecting hair, so you don’t wake up with knots or tangles. There’s a reason aestheticians recommend cotton sheets and pillowcases over other options on the market. 


GSM

Just like thread count is a key consideration for sheets and blankets, those investing in a health-conscious comforter should pay attention to GSM. Standing for grams per square meter, GSM refers to the weight of the filling in a comforter, quilt, or duvet. If you appreciate lightweight bedding that’s warm yet breathable, we suggest opting for a GSM between 150 and 250. It’s perfect for hot sleepers and those prone to night sweats. Then again, if you’d prefer something a little warmer for winter, choose a GSM between 300 and 400. Ultimately, the right fill thickness is whichever one works for you


Sustainable Manufacturing

Opting for health-conscious bedding is about more than fabric and fill content. The best brands also opt to use sustainable manufacturing methods. For example, Latest Bedding favorite Bebejan takes pains to ensure all its bedding sets bear OEKO-TEX certification, so you know they're made without harmful substances and chemicals. The end result is that individuals can feel good about where they and their loved ones are resting their heads at night. As a bonus, all Bebejan sets come complete with sustainable fabric bonus bags for easy storage. You can avoid plastics while protecting your bedding for the long term. 


Aesthetics

Of course, part of staying healthy is getting enough sleep at night. And it’s hard to rest easy if your bedding doesn’t inspire joy. Our customers appreciate Bebejan bedding because it showcases a wide selection of trending colors and patterns. Whether you prefer bold geometrics or flirty florals, dark hues or soft pastels, there’s something in the collection sure to please. Additionally, all Bebejan products are reversible, so home decorators can flip them over when they feel like a change of scenery. You don’t have to worry about getting bored when you choose Bebejan comforter sets over the competition.
