Author: Mattresses Help Relieve Stress and Pressure of the Modern World
In the modern society that we live in today, stress is an inevitable disease that the young and old have to deal with on a daily basis. That is why the mattress that we use to sleep on at night is so important to our health and well-being. The mattress that we sleep on has a DIRECT effect on how healthy and effective we are when we are awake!
Tempur-Pedic mattresses developed for astronauts
Mattress and bedding manufacturers take their research and development to new heights as they continue to search for the most effective stress and pressure-relieving materials to offer consumers. Take the NASA-developed tempur-Pedic mattresses as an example. Tempur-Pedic mattresses were originally developed by NASA for astronauts. Because of the extreme environments that astronauts have to endure in outer space, their mattresses and beddings have to give them optimal comfort. Tempur-Pedic mattresses can sense your weight and body temperature when you lie on top of the mattress. The tempur-Pedic mattress will, then, conform to every single angle and curve of your body. Satisfied consumers can attest to the comfort and deep sleep that they enjoy every single night on their tempur-Pedic mattresses. Tempur-Pedic mattresses help in relieving pressure, comfort to stressed body and minds. They also help in preventing pain and reducing instances of tossing and turning during the night. Tempur-Pedic mattresses induce deep sleep and complete rest throughout the night.
High quality mattresses outlast their lower quality counterparts
A high quality bedding and mattress will usually last for 10 years or more. But for high quality mattresses, the mattress manufacturer will go as far as to give their buyers a 20-year warranty! In fact, the quality of the latest and newest mattresses comes with anti-allergy, anti-mite terry cotton covers so that it discourages harvesting of those pesky creatures on the mattress.
Mattresses utilizing the latest technology are also easy to change because they realize that cleanliness and hygiene is of utmost importance to a good nights sleep. Cleanliness and consistent changing also contributes towards the lifespan of the mattress.

(NaturalNews) Mesothelioma is a rare cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. Is it possible to cure mesothelioma the natural way, given its poor prognosis? The answer is a resounding yes! In recent years, Paul Kraus, Rhio O`Connor and others chose to avoid conventional cancer therapies, feeling that they would have a better chance of survival by using supplements, herbs, rest and a nutritious diet. In so doing, they have provided living proof that curing this malignant cancer and living a long and healthy life is possible.
What Exactly is Mesothelioma Cancer?
A person may have been exposed to asbestos at work and inhaled asbestos dust or fibers. The fibers then become lodged in the membranes that surround the lungs, heart or abdomen. Over a period of time, these fibers cause tissue abnormalities, resulting in mesothelioma cancer.
Symptoms of Mesothelioma
Many people are not too worried when mesothelioma symptoms first appear, since the symptoms are vague and are sometimes thought to be nothing more than a bad case of flu. Symptoms can include shortness of breath, chest pain and/or a persistent cough.
Once diagnosed, mesothelioma carries a very poor prognosis particularly because it is a cancer that is often diagnosed late. Many people diagnosed with this disease are told to “put your affairs in order”.
Conventional treatments include chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.
Mesothelioma survivor Paul Kraus was determined to fight his peritoneal mesothelioma cancer the natural way. He became a vegetarian and started a rigorous anti-cancer diet which included organic fresh fruits and vegetables, grains, nuts and rice. In addition, he added many vitamins and supplements to his daily routine, consumed freshly squeezed juices and tried a treatment known as “ozone therapy”. The rationale for ozone therapy is that cancer cells do not thrive in an oxygenated environment.
Paul Kraus’ prognosis was very poor and he was told by his doctors, very honestly, that his chance of success with chemotherapy was not high at all. In addition, he was informed that the quality of his life would be severely compromised by the heavy chemotherapy treatments that would be prescribed. He was given a year to live but has survived a further eleven years by going the natural route.
Mesothelioma survivor Rhio O’Connor contracted pleural mesothelioma after asbestos exposure in his youth. He decided against surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Instead, with some help from physicians, he developed a regimen that included consuming more than 100 supplements daily, following a nutritious diet and practicing holistic, mind-body medicine.
O`Connor was inspired by Hippocrates who, more than 2,000 years ago, said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”. O`Connor is the published author of the book “They Said Months, I Chose Years: A Mesothelioma Survivor`s Story.”
Told that he had less than a year to live and to take his wife on a cruise, he fought mesothelioma the natural way and lived a further 7 years to tell the tale.
