Tuấn Đạt (Theo Health) |

Choosing the right pillowcase not only brings good sleep but also protects the health of the elderly.

Good and deep sleep plays an important role in maintaining health, especially for the elderly. One of the factors affecting sleep quality is choosing the right pillowcase.

Accordingly, pillowcases need to ensure softness and ventilation as well as support the skin, especially sensitive skin.

Cotton fabric

Cotton is one of the most popular and favorite materials for making pillowcases. With its soft, breathable and sweat-absorbent properties, cotton fabric will bring a comfortable feeling to the skin while sleeping.

Regular cotton is a natural material that is less irritating, suitable for people with sensitive or easily irritated skin. This fabric is also very easy to clean, helping to maintain cleanliness and safety for the health of the elderly.

Silk fabric

Silk fabric is an ideal choice for the elderly who want to improve the quality of sleep. With its smooth texture, silk reduces friction on the skin as well as limits wrinkles and skin aging.

In addition, silk also has the ability to regulate temperature, keeping warm in winter and cool in summer. However, to ensure the longevity of silk products, attention must be paid to proper washing and storage.

Bamboo fabric

Bamboo fabric is a natural, environmentally friendly material that is increasingly popular in household products. Pillowcases made from bamboo fabric are not only soft but also have antibacterial and deodorizing properties, helping to limit the risk of bacteria and mold growth.

In particular, this material has good absorbency, helping the elderly always feel airy and comfortable when sleeping, even on hot summer days.

Microfiber fabric

Microfiber, also known as super-small fibers, is made from synthetic materials and has many outstanding advantages. Although not a natural material, microfiber still brings the same softness as cotton or silk.

The outstanding advantages of microfiber are its ability to resist dirt, water and easy to clean. This is a suitable choice for the elderly with respiratory problems, as well as helping to maintain a clean and safe sleeping space.
