Bacteria in Your Bed

On average, a person spends around one-third of their life in bed. Naturally, we love to lay in bed because of how comfy and appealing it seems to be, however, there's a surplus of germs and bacteria that build up on the surface of our pillowcases and bedsheets. Doesn't sound too appealing anymore huh?

We are constantly shedding skin cells and laying in our beds, eventually, bacteria is going to build up. Sweating in our sleep also creates bacteria because it leads to liquid leaving our bodies becoming an easier way for it to produce and accumulate in the bed.

Amerisleep did a study where they had volunteers swab their bedsheets for four weeks without washing them. Then with their data, they were able to conclude how much bacteria builds up in your sheets. "Pillowcases washed a week ago have over 17 thousand times the number of bacteria as a toilet seat!"

Bacteria in your bedding can cause acne, and other times it can lead to eye irritation/infection and can even affect your lungs. Not ideal for your health or sleep.

What Is Zinc Bedding and How Is It Beneficial?

Zinc can be incorporated and woven into the threads of bedsheets and pillowcases to create an antibacterial product. Zinc has multiple health benefits. Because of its antibacterial properties, there are fewer germs and bacteria in your bed, leading to healthier skin and healthier sleep. Reduce inflammation and rejuvenate your skin with zinc-infused bedding.

Great for your body, better for your skin

Increase skin cell production and have healthy, clear skin.

Zinc works as an antioxidant. Zinc is a part of skin's dietary defense squad. The mineral lessens the formation of damaging free radicals and protects skin’s lipids and fibroblasts—the cells that make collagen, your skin’s support structure—when skin is exposed to UV light, pollution, and other skin-agers.

Zinc helps rejuvenate your skin. Zinc works to help heal the skin of scars or any cuts. The mineral increases the number of enzymes and proteins near the damaged skin to protect against infection, control inflammation, and produce new skin cells.

Zinc can also prevent and clear up acne. Pimples are formed from a build-up of oil, bacteria, and clogged pores. Zinc may help control inflammation in the skin and also reduce the number of bacteria produced on the surface of the skin. Zinc also regulates skin cell production which can control and reduce the amount of natural oil on the skin.

Multiple brands such as Glossier, Naked & Thriving, and Dermstore create skincare products that include Zinc to restore and rejuvenate skin.
