And this is why…

POOR PILLOW HYGIENE IS KEEPING AUSTRALIA AWAKE AT NIGHT

It’s been two years since Tontine put pillow hygiene under the microscope with the launch of their date stamped ‘Fresh Pillows’, reminding Australians that the lifespan of a synthetic pillow is approximately two years. Over time, a pillow can grow a complex ecosystem made up of dead skin cells and the things that feed on them.

But it’s not just the thought of this that can keep you up at night – research suggests that regularly replacing your pillow can also help you get a better night’s sleep.

Only 10% of major grocery buyers (MGBs) report that they sleep like a log at night, and more than 25% say they have trouble sleeping most nights or toss and turn and wake feeling tired.

Research suggests that simply replacing your pillow can make a difference, with two in three (67%) MGBs reporting they derive benefit from sleeping on a new pillow. One in four feel more rested (29%) or sleep more soundly (23%) while 42% say that it smells fresh and clean.

Last week I was also watching The Doctor’s on tv. They said after 10 years your  mattress can become double it’s original weight due to dead skin cells. VOMIT. So, this is why you need new pillows (and a new mattress I bet).

Tontine is giving 3 lucky winners 2 new pillows.

    Coughing daughter kept me awake until midnight. Neighbours cat sat outside my windows until 3, stirring my cats up. Thunder started at 4:30 so the dog was whinging to come inside. Finally settled her, got into bed and almost asleep when the cats started fighting. Kicked them all out at 6am and at 7am I woke up to see the two pool installation guys…STANDING AT MY BEDROOM WINDOW, putting the filter in place.

    I’m exhausted!
