The benefits of using baking soda on your mattress, and how to do this at home.
1. Each night we go to bed, and lay on the same mattress. Over time our bodies release dead skin cells which become clogged in the mattress.
2. Particles of dirt and sweat can go through the sheets and get into the mattress. You can use baking soda to give it a fresh clean.
3. To do this simply purchase a large box of baking soda, around 200 grams. Sprinkle this over the entire mattress. Massage this into the fabric with your hands. Try to cover the entire surface that you sleep on. Leave this for 3 hours, and then use a vacuum to hoover the powder back out.
4. The baking soda will absorb sweat and moisture from the mattress, also killing bacteria and parasites.
5. It will also clear out any accumulated dust, preventing dust mites from surviving. These mites can make you itch at night if left unchecked.
6. Baking soda is brilliant for removing stains and lifting dirt particles.
7. I also recommend flipping and rotating your mattress once every 3 months. This will keep it springier for longer.
8. The great thing about baking soda is that it is completely natural, and prevents the need for chemical fabric cleaners.
9. In our previous videos, we showed how you can use baking soda to get rid of cockroaches around the home.
10. You can also take baking soda to cleanse your kidneys, and alkalize your body. Please see our other videos to learn more.
