The Pure way…

The number of children suffering with asthma and eczema is increasing every year, but luckily, there’s a breakthrough product that can help…

If the thought of your baby sleeping in a bed full of bugs and germs makes you shudder, then look out for the PurFlo mattress. It’s a fully breathable mesh SleepSurface that fits over a hollow frame that not only supports your child better than a conventional mattress, but also allows free air circulation preventing the re-breathing of CO2. However, most importantly, the mattress cover is easily washable, meaning you can wash it at a high temperature to keep house dust mites at bay.

House dust mites, and the waste that they produce have been implicated in worsening asthma and eczema symptoms. One reader has had real success with a PurFlo mattress:

‘My daughter Georgia had been waking up to eight times in the night requiring her inhaler and medication and was exhausted and unsettled,’ says her Melissa Baynes. ‘In just a few weeks of sleeping on the PurFlo mattress, we saw a big difference and Georgia only wakes once during the night now and sometimes doesn’t need her asthma medication at all. She is happy, bright and bubbly again – she’s like a different little girl.’

The mattress has also received backing from Professor Peter Fleming, from the department for Infant Health & Development Physiology at the University of Bristol. He’s also a leading expert on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

‘The PurFlo mattress poses interesting possibilities. It has huge potential and offers a good opportunity to carry out research on how the exposure to house mites affects asthma.’
