Summary
You spend a third of your life in bed, and most of us have never once stopped to think about what is actually inside the mattress we sleep on every single night. In this episode, Cary sits down with Tim Masters, co-founder of My Green Mattress, to uncover the hidden chemicals lurking in conventional mattresses and why making the switch to non-toxic sleep solutions is one of the most impactful health decisions you can make for yourself and your family. Tim shares the deeply personal story behind his business, how his daughter Emily's struggles with eczema and allergies led him to create an organic crib mattress, and eventually build an entire company around safer sleep. He breaks down why chemical flame retardants became an industry standard after 2007 regulations, what those chemicals are actually doing to your body, and how natural materials like organic wool and cotton can meet safety standards without the health risks. If you care about what you eat, what you put on your skin, and the air you breathe, this episode will make you rethink the one place you spend the most time in your home. Tim's knowledge is practical, eye-opening, and genuinely life-changing for any health-conscious family.
