The Organic Sweet Dreams Sweepstakes!

With the current COVID-19 pandemic and rolled back lockdowns spanning the country and wreaking havoc on our livelihood and economy, many people are feeling the stress at unprecedented levels. The fear, uncertainty, misinformation, and chaos from business closures, income loss, and health scares are requiring that we take responsibility for our health now more than ever. This means optimizing your immune system by taking inventory of the food you eat, reducing the toxins in your home, life, and personal care, and improving the quality of your sleep.

Our bodies heal and detox during sleep. But when flame retardants linked to cancer, phthalates linked to early puberty, and VOCs linked to respiratory problems permeate our lives, the harm of chemicals in everyday products takes its toll on our immune system.
When we think about quality sleep, most of us consider the amount of Zzz’s we’re obtaining each night. However, there’s much more to getting adequate rest starting with the materials you sleep on. The majority of mattresses are made from petrochemicals, synthetic materials, and chemical additives. By choosing healthier mattresses and bedding materials, we can lower our body’s levels of toxic chemicals, potentially eliminating interference with healthy and restorative sleep.

You’ve heard of organic vegetables and organic milk, but have you heard of an organic mattress? And, is it really healthier?

Sleep is a time for our bodies to find harmony with our surroundings which can only be achieved with certified organic materials. Just like organic produce, organic mattresses that qualify for organic certification are made with organic and non-toxic materials instead of questionable pesticides, toxic flame retardants, and harmful chemicals. By choosing an organic mattress, this means reduced chemical exposures for you and a healthier planet for us all. This is vital for you and your family when you consider we spend one-third of our lives sleeping on our bed.

You Deserve a Safe, Sound & Healthy Sleep

From luxurious fabrics to fluffy fill, Naturepedic uses organic cotton throughout its product line. Organic wool is also used due to its inherent and comfortable moisture-wicking properties and splendid natural bounce. Organic latex provides pressure point relief and a smooth luxurious feel. Finally, organic cotton encased coils provide an amazing breathable support system. (NOTE: Naturepedic is the only mattress company in the world producing organic cotton wrapped coils.) These sought-after materials work together to create a symphony of comfort and offer an excellent alternative to traditional fabrics and foams.

By eliminating questionable chemicals, the people at Naturepedic favor natural, organic, and non-toxic materials, striving for a higher standard.

Mattresses Made in an Organic Factory

Naturepedic mattresses are constructed by skilled Amish workers known for their craftsmanship and passion for quality. The Amish take pride in the opportunity to build certified organic mattresses. Even the entire Naturepedic factory, located in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, is certified organic by GOTS, the Global Organic Textile Standard.

Buyer Beware: Not all Eco Mattresses are Created Equal

When shopping for a healthy mattress, it’s important to understand that many of the marketing terms are not regulated and can be misleading. For example, materials cited as ‘green’ and ‘eco’ sound good, but some are not even “natural,” or focused on eliminating harmful chemicals. Plant-derived” or “Soybean” foam can be another red flag whereas these materials are typically a minimum of 80% petroleum/chemical based and are not really “made of soybeans.” Lastly, look out for bamboo fabric which can consist of rayon made using environmentally toxic chemicals with zero bamboo plant in the finished product. Without third-party certification, these can be just marketing terms.

All Naturepedic products have earned the following certifications:

1. Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)
2. All latex is certified to the Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS)
3. The UL/GREENGUARD Gold Certification standard for emissions
4. Non-GMO verified
5. OCS100 Organic Content Standard
6. Formaldehyde-Free verified

Dangers of Chemical Flame Retardants

A new film, Advanced Warning, reveals the dangers of flame retardant chemicals.

Did You Know?

• Many consumer products today are made from petroleum and various other chemicals (versus the more natural materials that were previously used like wood, cotton, steel, wool, etc.)
• Because they’re petroleum-based, these materials are highly flammable. To reduce the flammability, flame retardant chemicals are added. Many of these flame retardant chemicals are (highly) toxic.
• There is a broader recognition of newly developed toxic chemicals being used in consumer products. Some of these newer toxic chemicals are used to make petroleum-based consumer products resulting in tens of thousands of toxic chemicals being used to manufacture our (largely petroleum-based) consumer products; flame retardant chemicals constitute one grouping of the larger toxic chemicals issue.

With a wide array of offerings including adult, kids and baby collections, Naturepedic offers mattress pads, toppers, the best organic pillows, and sheets to keep you safe during the eight most important eight-plus hours of your day.

The Importance of Organic Cotton Face Masks

Naturepedic now offers organic face masks at their cost as a service to the public. The masks are available in a six-pack and are breathable without off-gassing dangerous chemicals.

WHY YOU DON’T WANT A TYPICAL FACE MASK

1. Typical face masks are made with synthetic materials and chemicals, even possibly toxic chemicals.
2. If you’re cleaning the mask with chemicals (and sprays), you’re only multiplying the chemicals.
3. This is even more important than usual because you’re putting these materials on your face.
4. As well, synthetic face mask materials can simply block your breathing.
5. Then, the air between a synthetic mask and your face can get particularly hot.

WHY YOU DO WANT A NATUREPEDIC FACE MASK

1. Naturepedic “No- Compromise” Organic Face Masks are made with two layers of 100% certified organic cotton.
2. Naturepedic organic cotton is more comfortable than synthetic materials and chemicals.
3. Naturepedic face masks are washable and don’t require chemical treatments and can be used indefinitely (you don’t need to keep throwing the used masks into a landfill).
