Without a pillow a bed is not a bed - at least for most people it is as much a part of the bedding as the air we breathe. Apart from the “comfort factor”, the most important requirement of a pillow is that it optimally supports the neck area during sleep. There is a large selection of pillows made of different materials with different fillings in various variations available on the market. For the layperson, it is often too large to reliably find the pillow that allows the most comfortable and ergonomically optimal lying position.

That is for you to decide. Because the manufacturers do specify for each mattress whether it is hard, medium hard or soft. But these specifications are not subject to any standard. This means that every manufacturer defines “hard” differently. In principle, people who are a little heavier should choose a harder mattress. But “if it is too hard, you roll around more at night and sleep less well”, says Dr. Peter Geisler, head of the sleep medicine centre at the Regensburg district hospital.

Security: Many people like silicone mats for their safety. However, the inferior brands that have penetrated the market are not harmful. To avoid such products, check the quality of the material used to manufacture the product of your choice. Pure silicone is the best. It's free of chemicals. It is also very durable and distributes heat well for fast and even cooking. They're the best.

If the bulging force decreases, if hollows are visible in the core or if the foam becomes brittle, it is time to buy a new cushion. For hygienic reasons, a non-washable pillow should be replaced after two years at the latest. Pillows with a foam core last on average about five years. Since loose fillings suffer from material fatigue a little faster (material is “compressed”) and thus lose their bulk and support strength, it can be useful to replace the pillow after about three years or at least have it refilled.

You have a four-legged family member at home and want to spoil him with some homemade dog biscuits? Then the back mat with studs, which we have shown you above, is ideal for this. Instead of preparing your food on the knobs, you can simply turn the baking mat over and fill the dough for the treats into the knobs.

Degree of purification, slightly lower than that of water purifiers connected to the water supply. The amount of purified water is the same as for a can (usually 1 - 2.5 litres). If you need more water, you have to fill the pitcher 2, 3 or more times.

Probably the best known is still the classic feather pillow, which provides the right feather pleasure during a pillow fight. However, the very puffable pillows in the size 80×80 cm with a filling of feathers and down are no longer the non-plus-ultra among pillows and ergonomically not really recommended.

You should replace your pillow after five years at the latest. Not only for hygienic reasons - the pillow also loses elasticity and height over time. To maintain the function of the pillow for as long as possible, it should be shaken and aired every morning. EXCEPTION: Do not shake models with natural hair, otherwise the cohesion of the filling will be destroyed.

“Hello, I need a new pillow, a white one!” With this information, you don't even need to come to salespeople. Better tell them what position you sleep in at night, the firmness of your mattress and whether or not you feel tension in the morning with your current pillow. Salespeople can do much more with this - and give you individual and better advice!

Pillow bought, everything seems great - but after a few nights it turns out: it has the wrong height. For those who have any kind of concerns about in which as well as the best way to make use of Read the Full Post, you'll be able to contact us with our own webpage. Stupid! Therefore, models that can be adapted to personal needs are helpful - via a zipper. This allows you to remove some of the filling material or add more. Some supporting foam cushions also offer this possibility. Inside they then consist of several larger parts.

When buying a pillow, brains are required! Because here it is not a question of taking what you like - no, here it is: Take what suits me! Those who do not observe this simple rule quickly pay for their ignorance with morning tensions, back and neck pain.

Latex mattresses adapt very well to the body of the person lying down and promise pleasant nights. However, these mattresses weigh a lot and therefore cause problems, for example when turning the sleeping mattress. Moreover, they belong rather in the higher-priced range.

The biggest advantage of the baking mat made of glass fibre mesh over silicone is that it is even more flexible and that no plastic is required for production.The disadvantage, however, is that unlike the silicone baking mat, this does not catch dripping fat, which means that the baking tray has to be cleaned afterwards.

We know that a 65% person consists of water. Embryos are 97 percent water. In a healthy body there is a balance in the water balance. During aging, the water content in the body decreases. In order for the water balance to be normal, we need to consume up to 2.5 litres of water a day. But not all water is useful. It has long been known that tap water is not acceptable for consumption in its raw form in the body. Theoretically it can be assumed that the water from the tap comes to you in full accordance with GOST. But unfortunately everyone knows that the water is again physically and informally polluted. This is due to the condition of the pipes and the passageways. It should be defended, filtered and cleaned. This is a long process that takes a day or more. You must store the containers in which water settles and is cleaned. It's tedious, uncomfortable and not entirely hygienic. Fortunately, there is a way out in the late days of technology. This is a variety of water filters.
