Your Pillow Could Be Making You Sick
We obsess over mattresses, but forget the one thing our face spends 8 hours on: the pillow.
Studies show pillows can harbor up to a million fungal spores after just 2 years. Dust mites feast on skin flakes, leaving droppings that trigger allergies, asthma, and even chronic sinus problems.
Here’s the detail no one talks about: the oils from your face seep in nightly. That warm, moist environment? Perfect for mold. If you’ve been waking up with stuffy noses, headaches, or acne breakouts—it might be your pillow, not your health.
Simple hack: wash pillowcases every 3 days, pillows every 2 months, and replace them every 2 years. Or go extreme—switch to hypoallergenic materials like bamboo or latex.
We change our phones every 2 years, but hug the same moldy pillow for 10. Which one do you think hurts your health more?
