Benefits of a pillow with organic buckwheat hulls (origin: Beauce- QC)

Buckwheat hulls are traditionally used for bedding in Eastern countries and more particularly, in Asia. As pillow filling, they have various advantages:

• the shells are renewable and recyclable;
• slightly heavier than a traditional pillow, the buckwheat hull pillow is firm and naturally follows the shape of the neck, while supporting the neck;
• its density reduces the stiffness of the cervical vertebrae and muscle tension because the buckwheat pillow stores heat and gradually releases it;
• Buckwheat hulls are hypoallergenic, anti-mite and antibacterial. There are two reasons for this
• firstly the buckwheat hull contains a natural tannin which has a repulsive effect on mites and bacteria;
• secondly, the shape of the hulls guarantees an airy pillow which reduces the possibility of mites spreading.

For the maintenance of this pillow: it is first necessary to take out the shells and place them in the light to ventilate them. Wash the cushion cover. In no case should you wash the shells at the risk of damaging them.
