Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Hi Kari Its not just in the mattress, theres the couch, all sorts - its a fire retardent that is put in practically all soft furnishings to 'protect' us You can wrap the mattress details on www.criblife2000.com or you can get organic cotton futons, somebody will know. I suppose theres always throwing out the couch and sitting on haybales, cripes we might as well here, no carpets, just tiles etc etc. YOu can reduce the load bvut I don;t hink you can eliminate it MAndi in UK > Help, what's up with antimony being in mattresses?

Antimony is a flame retardant so it's illegal to sell certain kinds of mattresses without it. I got mine from <A HREF= " http://www.soaringheart.com/category.cfm?topCategory=BedFramesFurniture & ca\ tegory=x4in1SleepSystems " >Soaring Heart Futons</A> and am very happy with it.

Check this page under antimony http://www.danasview.net/metals.htm I have a few references for mattress info. Be sure to consider pajamas and other sources also.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 > I just received the results from my two year old's hair test. It showed very high levels of arsenic(sp?) and uranium(sp?).

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hi Phil, Here is a link that is in the files: http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html#how_to_post I just cut and pasted the sample at the end. Doesn't look like the link is right. It is in the files under hair test. hth, > > I just recieved the results from my DDI test.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 On the paper scale you only fold the little triangles and those become like the supports of a seesaw. When you set it up one end it up and the other down. There's a circle about 1 " in diameter on the " up " end. You put the hair on that circle until the seesaw tips and that end goes down. Make sure you've ordered the hair elements test. S S > I am collecting hair samples for the DLS test and I am thinking my <br> > daughter will have bald patch by the time I am done!
