  • 99% of all crib mattresses sold in America are now unsafe to sleep on, due to new government law  By : Dr. M. Kureshi-19488
    On July 1, 2007, a new government law was passed by the CPSC (Consumer Products Safety Commission) that mandated the use of flame retardant chemicals (FRC’s) in all consumer mattresses sold in America, including crib mattresses. All mattresses sold in America, including natural, and organic mattresses have to comply with this new law.

    The purpose of this law is to reduce the risk of fire injury…however, there is a growing body of scientific evidence that many of these FRC’s are questionable at best, and potentially toxic at worst. The most common chemicals being used in all new mattresses (including crib mattresses) are Boric Acid (the active ingredient in roach killer) Antimony (similar to arsenic – a known poison), and Silicon (a respiratory irritant).

    Under the mew law, a consumer can get a chemical and toxin free mattress by having a Dr. prescription. This is advisable for new babies, because these flame retardant chemcials have been associated with SIDS, or sudden infant death syndrome.
