The word hypoallergenic basically means, things that are less likely than others, to cause an allergic reaction. This can refer to animals, or it can refer to products, such as cosmetics and mattresses.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>hypo<\/em> part means \u201cless than normally\u201d, (not the same as hyper with an <em>er<\/em>). The other part, <em>allergenic<\/em>, means, can cause an allergic reaction, like dust, pet dander, or <a href=\"http:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/dust-mites-little-mite-big-appetite\/\">dust mites<\/a>. So, a hypoallergenic mattress is good for preventing allergic reactions.<\/p>\n<p>The opposite is a <em>non-<\/em>hypoallergenic mattress, which, logically, would have a greater likelihood of causing an allergic reaction. Naturally, manufacturers of non-hypoallergenic mattresses wouldn\u2019t put labels on their mattresses saying so, as it\u2019s not something they\u2019d really want you to know. But be aware they\u2019re out there. And can cause problems for your health, especially for people with allergies.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_942\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-942\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-942\" src=\"http:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/long-haired-cat-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/long-haired-cat-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/long-haired-cat-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/long-haired-cat-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bedguard.com.au\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/long-haired-cat.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-942\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Meow, all I need is a hypoallergenic mattress!<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>What makes a good hypoallergenic mattress?<\/h2>\n<p>The materials used to make a hypoallergenic mattress prevent allergens like dust mites, bacteria, mould, and fungus from getting into your mattress, pillows, and bedding. The effectiveness of these materials, however, depends on the quality of the design, the manufacturing process, and the mattress treatment. This includes sealing the mattress to make it resistant to allergens.<\/p>\n<p>A well-designed hypoallergenic mattress will:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Help prevent allergy flare-ups<br \/>\n\u2022 Reduce symptoms of allergies<br \/>\n\u2022 Encourage better sleeping patterns<br \/>\n\u2022 Provide extra comfort, and<br \/>\n\u2022 Increase health and wellbeing<\/p>\n<p>Hypoallergenic mattresses serve their purpose better when they are also waterproof.
