An energy boost for the whole working day, a good mood depends on sleep. However, good sleep is a luxury for a modern person. Stress and anxiety do not allow you to relax, and the abundance of synthetic materials in bedding often poison the body with toxins.
The main accessories for a good sleep are, of course, the bed and bedding. But, perhaps, the lion's share of comfort is provided by such an item as a pillow.
Much depends on its content, it can be:
- downy, - wadded, - silicone, - with synthetic filling, - consisting of various herbs.
Basically, there are two main types: natural and synthetic pillow bases.
For filling, buckwheat husks or buckwheat grains are used; sleeping bags were stuffed with them in Russia, mixing with straw. Thus, a comfortable and soft pillow was obtained.
One of the most useful fillers for natural pillows is buckwheat. The same buckwheat that people are used to eating for breakfast. Buckwheat is not only a healthy food for the human body, but also a useful filler for a pillow, which will ensure a healthy and sound sleep.
Benefits alone
The advantage of the buckwheat filler is also the benefit for the head: dense buckwheat grains have a natural massage effect, and the ability of the pillow to take an anatomically correct shape makes it possible not to interfere with the natural blood flow in the vessels that feed the brain. It is because of this that a person sleeping on a pillow with buckwheat wakes up with new strength and a "light" head.
It is noticed that sleeping on a pillow with a kernel or buckwheat husk ceases to suffer from headaches, the reason for recovery is the relaxation and support that the spine receives during sleep.
Today, buckwheat pillows are produced by world leaders in the sleep industry. Naturally, such a filler undergoes rigid thermal and radiological cleaning, then it is placed in a cover made of a special material, and only then into a cozy pillowcase.
If you want to sleep well, getting a lot of health pleasures, then you will definitely not find a better pillow filler than buckwheat.
Gentle handling of buckwheat filler
Like any natural material, such a filler does not live long. Buckwheat constantly breathes, it does not dump and does not get lost, there is a constant air circulation, while dust accumulates in the down and feather pillows and dangerous mites can start causing harm to the body.
The buckwheat pillow requires special care. It should not be stored in a humid room, placed under a press, or allowed to come into contact with moisture. You need to use only natural covers and change them weekly.
