30. Master Organic Mattresses & Sustainable Interior Design for an Eco-friendly Home

Practical Nontoxic Living with Sophia Ruan Gushée

Anticipating his first grandchild, Barry Cik shopped for a suitable crib mattress. However, as a board-certified environmental engineer with eco-friendly preferences, Barry was surprised to learn that most bedding manufacturers used harmful chemicals and materials. This inspired Barry to leverage his background in environmental engineering to create the safest mattress products possible for various price points. Thus, Naturepedic, an industry-leading organic mattress manufacturer, was formed.

This podcast teaches you about the key components that are often sources of toxic exposures in conventional mattresses. These components are also commonly used in many other home furnishings—like sofas, high chairs, dining chairs, carpets, stuffed animals, nursing pillows, and more.

So, if you're interested in sustainable interior design, creating an eco-friendly home, improving your indoor air quality, and decreasing your body burden from toxic chemicals, then this podcast will help with all those things.
