Many popular mattresses are a chemical nightmare, constructed of polyurethane foam, which is made from a petrochemical base combined with a chemical potpourri of stabilizers, catalysts, surfactants, fire retardants, antimicrobial additives and colorants. These chemicals are associated with environmental problems as well as human health hazards such as chronic bronchitits, impaired lung function, breathlessness, nausea, vomiting and allergic reactions. Some are potential carcinogens and reproductive toxins. Sleep Safe details how beds may be one of the single-most overlooked causes of people's health problems in the world today. Author Walt Bader shows the reader how to shop for a safe and healthy organic mattress, and provides tips for eliminating toxins in all parts of your bedroom–from the walls to the floors to the closets.
