Best Comforter Sets

Today we are still uncertain who came up with an idea to put a pillow under the head. However, it is established that first prototypes of modern pillows were not typically designed for support and comfortable sleep. The first samples of pillows found in the tombs of ancient Egypt were made of wood, porcelain, stone, and different metals and they mainly purported to keep Pharaohs’ hairdo while sleeping. It is remarkable that in Japan such method of keeping an attractive look of a hairdo in the morning remained popular up to 19th century A.C. The Japanese widely used wooden plates with a warped surface and gods images to protect the owner from demons. The first soft pillows meant for a comfortable sleep were created on the territory of the ancient Greece. Made of expensive fabrics, decorated with patterns and precious stones, they were affordable only for rich upper-class people. Since every pillow was handmade it was unique. Thus, soon a pillow became a piece of art and served to accentuate the interior as well as to demonstrate the owner’s social and financial status. Later on, this essential attribute of a healthy sleep spread over the world and now we have an opportunity to enjoy its benefits that were not available to our remote ancestors.

A modern fast pace of our life requires more and more time and efforts to fulfill our everyday tasks and maintain normal functions of our body during the day. Hence, a healthy sleep is a key factor determining our activity and efficiency of our actions. Today many people push it to the side and there they are wrong! A permanent lack of sleep can cause irritation, reflex deterioration and eventually even lead to disorientation and short-term amnesia. Well, the main question is how much time do we need for a good-quality, restful and refreshing sleep? 18 researchers from the National Sleep Foundation, USA, studied over 300 scientific works on a human sleep and came to an interesting conclusion that sleep duration directly depends on our age: the younger an individual is the more time he or she needs to sleep. Thus, a newborn should sleep about 14-17 hours per day while an infant of 1-2 years needs about 11-14 hours. A school student in the age of 6 to 13 years will feel good after a 9-11-hour sleep while adults and elderly persons need only 7-9 of good sleep. Of course, this time can vary depending on your personal physical needs and lifestyle but all scientists are unanimous that the lack of sleep is harmful to our organism.
