I found an interesting quiz at Care2 Living Channel, How Safe is Your Bed? The Healthy Bed Quiz by Annie Berthold-Bond
The article and quiz are based on a study by indoor air expert Dr. Rosaind Anderson of Anderson Laboratories, Inc. who determined chemical emissions from some of the best-selling mattress models make them "toxic wastebaskets". Read the article and you’ll understand why sleeping on a healthy mattress is important. The quiz helps you determine which mattresses are really healthy, and why. A few questions veer a bit off-course about digital clocks and bedside lamps but the points made about finding a truly healthy mattress are right on target.
The Care2 web site is a wealth of information for creating a healthy home and living responsibly. I found many a helpful hint about creating tannic acid from black tea to neutralize dust mite allergens and animal dander. I also like the fact that Care2 is non-partisan with respect to U.S. politics.
