7 Year Old Girl Starts Into Full Puberty – A Mother’s Testimonial
” Dear Lee,
First, I want to thank you for your work. I fully support your efforts to provide natural, high-quality mattresses at fair prices. Many people are finally awakening to the truth about industry standards. Please keep speaking out!”
A Family’s Experience with Toxic Chemicals
“My family has personal experience with the toxic effects of chemical-laden mattresses. In 2003, I purchased a memory foam mattress from a major brand.
Nine years later, my seven-year-old daughter began sleeping on this mattress. Almost immediately, she experienced a rapid onset of early puberty. Within just two months, she dealt with:
-
Sudden weight gain.
-
Development of breast buds.
-
Intense emotional mood swings.”
The Connection to Flame Retardants
“It took us a while to suspect the bed. However, once we moved her to an organic mattress, the progression stopped quickly. We even saw some symptoms regress. She is now nearly 14 and enjoys a normal, natural puberty. We realized just in time that this mattress was poisoning her.”
The Science of Endocrine Disruptors
“Research supports our experience. A study from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) shows that flame-retardant chemicals can mimic estrogen. Specifically, 3-D images show how these chemicals bind to receptors in the body.
This chemical mimicry definitely caused my daughter’s health problems. These toxins likely cause many other endocrine health issues for people sleeping on standard mattresses. Protect your family by choosing chemical-free materials.”
How Toxic Mattresses Can Affect Your Family’s Health
The fact that a 7 year old girl starts into full puberty is alarming enough all by itself but many people have suffered other health issues that are just as bad. A woman from Illinois named Rachel has permanent neurological damage from the Serta mattress she purchased. We had the mattress tested in a chemical lab and it has 3500 times the level of Antinmony than is considered safe. It is no wonder she had permanent neurological problems such as severe memory loss and fatigue. What is you and your family’s health worth? An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure so get a mattress from us at Sleep Essentials and prevent any chemicals from your mattress getting into you!
