Are you allergic to your luxury bedding?

Allergy alert: when you come into contact with a substance that causes your body to produce an adverse reaction; you may be experiencing an allergic reaction. Allergies usually cause the body to produce a substance called histamine as a way of telling the body that something is wrong.

Some allergies occur in rooms with bedding, bedding, certain types of fabrics, carpets, and curtains that can cause an allergic reaction to dust, dust mites, and other common allergens in this room.

Symptoms:

• You may experience nasal congestion and congestion

• You may have itchy, watery eyes

• May develop persistent body itchiness

Dust can accumulate under the bed, on heavy curtains or blinds, on infrequently used upholstery, and this dust, when stirred, can trigger an allergy attack. Did you know…?
