All You Should Know About Memory Foam Mattress

By Towne Home Furnishings


Does your body ache every morning? Are you restless and sleepless? A memory foam mattress can help remedy these problems and make the day feel better. Lucky for you, the memory foam invented by NASA 50 years ago to protect astronauts is now used in mattresses. When you lie on a memory foam mattress, its soft foam adjusts to every part of your body from head to foot. The temperature-sensitive material distributes body weight evenly and reduces pain. If you suffer with back, neck, hip and joint pain, mattress brands like Ashley-Sleep®, Tempur-Pedic® and other premium brands are perfect for you. They adapt to your body so you can rest easy in personalized comfort. Add an adjustable base and with the touch of a button, you’ll discover that perfect ergonomic position. In addition to pain relief, there are five more great health benefits of memory foam mattresses.



HELPS EASE SLEEP APNEA
When a memory foam mattress and pillow are used together, your head will be properly elevated. This helps clear the path to easier breathing because your airways are no longer obstructed.


HELPS ALLERGY SUFFERERS
There’s nothing to sneeze at with memory foam. Since these mattresses are made of polyurethane foam, the interior of your mattress will always be free of allergy-causing dust mites. By eliminating one of the major allergens, these mattresses can also help control asthma. 



IMPROVES METABOLISM
If your partner constantly tosses and turns, you’ll never know it with a memory foam mattress. The foam isolates all motion and you’ll enjoy uninterrupted sleep. This will positively impact your metabolism, which may in turn help you lose weight, deal with daily stress and improve your overall health.


PROVIDES PROPER SPINAL ALIGNMENT
Contouring support provided by a memory foam mattress keeps the back aligned and delivers pressure-relieving comfort while you sleep. This helps with preventing back pain and future spinal problems. As time goes on, these mattresses are less likely to sag and lose shape, so your back will not suffer.

Movember: How to Change The Face of Men’s Health

By Towne Home Furnishings


Movember, which initially began in 2003 as a running gag involving the disappearance of a fashion trend, triggered an idea with a deeper sense of purpose. This charity is committed to creating awareness about some of the biggest health issues that men face worldwide. In particular, they focus on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity. Since 2003, millions have joined this movement and their efforts culminated to funding over 1000 programs and raising approximately $677 million. Let’s take a look at some statistics that drive these initiatives:

  • Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men globally, with over 1.1 million recorded cases in 2012
  • Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men, but is often forgotten due to early detection
  • One man dies every minute from suicide around the world – a result of poor mental health
  • Physical inactivity is the fourth leading risk factor for global mortality in men



So how exactly does a somewhat comical, yet memorable notion like growing and grooming a moustache for a month inspire change? In the words of Adam Garone, the CEO & co-founder of the Movember Foundation, their vision is “Changing the face of men’s health”. How do they intend to change the face of men’s health one might ask? The aim is to educate the population, as well as raise funds to increase early detection, diagnosis and effective treatments. If this is a cause that you would like to support, then jump on the bandwagon! First, sign up and begin with a clean shaven face on November 1st. Then, for 30 days, grow and groom a moustache that will turn you into a living billboard for men’s health. Finally, raise funds and educate people about what you’ve learned. So grow your mo, bro.

Add Fruits To Your Decor!

by Towne Home Furnishings



Sometimes we have a lack of ideas on how to eat healthy. Then, we feel guilty because we know that it is important to eat well. If you are looking for inspiration to win this battle, here are some tips and ideas for you:

1- Bet on color
Buy fruits that have an attractive look; strawberries, red or green apples, oranges, watermelon, etc. The vivid colors will catch your attention and stimulate your appetite just because they seem more delicious than neutral ones.


It is known; there are more chances to eat fruit if we have them right under our noses; one of the reasons for that phenomenon is the point we raised just above. We usually put fruit in a drawer in the refrigerator and when we are hungry, we take a quick look in the fridge to find something attractive for our stomach. Many times, we peek inside the refrigerator without actually opening any drawers or moving anything around to see what may be hiding way behind. Having the fruit basket at hand will help to avoid any wasting!

3- Add fruit to your decor
In restaurants, we often see paintings or big close-up pictures of fruit on the wall. This is not just to add color to their decor; this is another way to whet people’s appetite! In addition, it’s quite beautiful in a kitchen and a diningroom.



4- Keep it ready to eat

When you come back from the grocery store with all these delicious fruit, take a few minutes to wash them and get them ready to be eaten (cut them into pieces if need to be); sometimes we are too lazy to take the time to wash or cut fruit just before eating them. Now, there are no more excuses, they’ll be ready!
