Latex bedding has made a hit within the past few years due to the heightened interest among consumers who prefer to use natural, organic bedding on which to sleep. The interest in safe, chemical free, nonallergenic products for the bedroom is growing among users who recognize the link between their health and the type of materials on which they sleep. It is well worth your health to investigate the positive reasons for using natural latex products in your bedroom instead of continuing to use synthetic alternatives that may cause health problems.

What’s the obvious benefits to using latex bedding products over conventional materials used to produce common bedding essentials? Here are some of the best reasons to choose natural latex material for your bedding accessories.

Did you know that pure latex material used for mattresses, mattress toppers, pads and pillows is nonallergenic to most people? For one thing, natural latex has such dense cell fibers that dust mites find it impossible to thrive in the environment. So for people who suffer from dust allergies, latex bedding products are the perfect natural way to combat dust mites in the sleep environment. Secondly, the material also naturally resists mold and mildew which can accrue incrimentally over time in most mattresses, pillows and toppers. It is antimicrobial and antibacterial.

Thirdly, it is chemically free for those who may have sensitivities to the typical chemicals used in the production of conventional products such as mattresses and toppers. The Dunlop and Talalay method of producing the material ensure that there are no binders, fillers or other chemicals added to latex when it is processed.

Other superior benefits to sleeping on latex bedding accessories is the extreme comfort and body support that these products provide to users. Those who suffer from fibromyalgia, who have sustained back or neck injuries or who suffer from arthritis will find that latex provides the right amount of support while also providing soft enough comfort to relieve aches and pains. Bedding made from this materials is also the most durable that you can find for sleep products that will last for many years. In fact, a pure latex mattress can last as long as 60 years while requiring only common sense maintenance.

Leaky gut syndrome used to be only something you would hear about, amongst the “alternative” medicine community. But more and more, main stream medicine is finding out this may be the begining of many diseases we see today.

There is truth in the old saying, “Death begins in the intestines. ” Your intestines play an important role not only in your digestion, but in many biological functions. Your intestinal tract harbors many different types of bacteria. It is estimated that there is between 300-500 different types of beneficial bacteria in your digestive tract. When the balance between “good” and “bad” bacteria is lost, this is called dysbiosis. When dysbiosis is present, immune system functions become less efficient, yeast, or candida over growth may occur, inflammation in the intestinal tract may occur, as well as through out your body if the inflammation then leads to a hyper-permeable intestinal wall (leaky gut).

Research has implicated intestinal dysbiosis as contributing to vitamin B12 deficiency(pernicious anemia), irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune disorders, arthritis, colon and breast cancer, psoriasis, eczema, cystic acne, and chronic fatigue syndrome, high cholesterol, food allergies, and more!

Some of the causes of leaky gut syndrome may be,

Antibiotic use

Anti inflammatory drugs (yes even the NSAIDs.. especially the NSAIDs)

Processed foods

Stress

Lack of fiber in the diet

Hypochlorhydria (as you age the strength of your stomach acid declines, causing improper nutritional absorption as well as many other imbalances. Even people that suffer from acid reflux may actually have Hypochlorhydria)

It is not enough just to simply replenish your friendly bacteria, or, intestinal flora with a supplement. Once you have hit the stage of leaky gut, the intestinal walls need to be healed as well. The longer the problem is left untreated, the more severe the damage, and the more difficult it is to correct. Fortunately testing for this is simple, non invasive and inexpensive.

Whether I am seeing a patient for arthritis, yeast infections, weight gain, fibromyalgia, or high cholesterol, I run a metabolic test to determine how well their body is functioning. If your foundation is not strong, it is difficult to obtain lasting results, no matter how great the treatment, drug, diet, or therapy is. Most of us think we are functioning well, if we have no symptoms of disease, but symptoms are often a more advanced sign that an imbalance is in place. Symptoms may also seem unrelated to the imbalance, and then go untreated, hoping it will just “go away on its own.” It may go away, but, that does not mean the imbalance has resolved itself.

If you suffer from:

Food allergies (most of these are hidden but add to your inflammation)

Irritable bowel syndrome

Chronic intestinal inflammation

Yeast infections

Fibromyalgia

Chronic fatigue

Eczema

Gas, bloat, or flatulence or

Use antacids

Use antibiotics

Use NSAID or anti inflammatory drugs

You may be at risk for leaky guy syndrome.

When tested, if you find signs of leaky gut syndrome, or Hypochlorhydria, or dysbiosis, you can work with your health care practitioner to correct the problem. The secret to a long life and good health is not in symptom management, it’s in keeping your body balanced, and working in optimal condition.

If you pay attention to your body, you can have more energy, lose weight, stay healthy, and live a longer, happier life. It all starts with small adjustments, and little steps.

As a former sufferer of hypoglycemia, adrenal fatigue and various allergic conditions I often asked myself ‘why me?’ I sometimes wish that I’d known then what I know now as it would have made it so much easier. I am here to offer you hope that you are not alone.

It is suggested that the majority of people with fatigue disorders are sensitive people. Can you recognise yourself here?

Are you easily overwhelmed by such things as bright lights, strong smells, coarse fabrics, or sirens nearby?

Do you get rattled when you have a lot to do in a short amount of time?

Do you make a point of avoiding violent movies and TV shows?

Do you need to withdraw during busy days, into bed or a darkened room or some other place where you can have privacy and relief from the situation?

Do you make it a high priority to arrange your life to avoid upsetting or overwhelming situations?

Do you notice or enjoy delicate or fine scents, tastes, sounds, or works of art?

Do you have a rich and complex inner life? When you were a child, did your parents or teachers see you as sensitive or shy?

If you recognise yourself here IT IS NOT BAD THING. It means that you are one of only 15-20% of the population, a special group. Without sensitive people the world would be a harsher place. You have the rare ability to know what people need, to be there for them, to care for people ‘ unconditionally. Your gifts are special, unique and selfless. In exchange for all your wonderful gifts you are sensitive to the harsher things in this world. You are sensitive to foreign substances and environmental pollutants. You may worry forever about things people have said and they can eat you up inside. Too many things bombarding you everyday has left you weak and unable to cope. As you develop symptoms of fatigue you don’t have the energy to carry on your special work anymore and you feel even more detached.

Rue Hass encourages you to remember your ideal qualities; these are featured on her website http://www.intuitivementoring.com

Internally deeply caring

Deeply committed to the positive and the good

On a mission to bring peace to the world

Strong personal morality

Often make extraordinary sacrifices for someone/something you believe in

If you’re suffering right now I urge to you look for what you could get out of this situation. You rediscover reading, self help books are so inspiring, getting back with nature would help a sensitive person to ground themselves again. Could you use this opportunity to retrain or somehow find a way of helping other sensitive people? You need to allow yourself time to recover and your energy can only pick up if you’ve allowed yourself some time away from the noise, people, pollutants, demands etc. You’re not odd, just because the majority of the population seem to cope. You’re not odd ‘ you’re special.

So go forward and nurture your sensitive side. It took me years to build myself back up again and I wish I had understood all about sensitive people at the time. Don’t dismiss what I’ve told you as unbelievable and impossible.

Visit the links I’ve given you and read more about other people in similar situations. It’s the best thing you could do for yourself today. You can absolutely conquer this.
