Change Your Pillow, People!

Histamine Havoc: Old pillows can harbor dust mites and mold, known triggers for histamine intolerance.

Immediate Relief: I recently changed my pillows in our new rental place. Ugh, I don't want to think about how long the old pillows had been there.

After switching my pillow, HRV ⬆️ and allergy symptoms ⬇️.

I asked my Instagram followers if a clean pillow is the key to histamine harmony? Here are some of what my followers say:

“Woolroom do fantastic pillows. I recently got their latex one which is an alternative to memory foam without all the chemicals. The wool filling is also naturally anti-dust mite, etc and you can trace back to the sheep it came from!”

“I’ve been having a nightmare with pillows at the moment. I have always had feather pillows. I bought new feather pillows and I’m allergic to them. I’ve tried a different make and I’m still having problems. It’s costing me a lot of money. I’m now thinking of trying anti allergy pillowcases.”
