But if you sweat heavily, struggle with allergies or acne, sleep with animals, or are recovering from illness, washing sheets and pillowcases every three to four days can make a noticeable difference in comfort and sleep quality.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1861172\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Beyond sheets, your other bedding quietly collects dust, oils, and allergens too. Duvet covers and frequently used blankets benefit from a wash every one to two weeks, while comforters, duvets, and washable pillows can usually be cleaned every few months if protected by covers. Simple daily habits\u2014like showering before bed, removing makeup, letting your bed air out in the morning, and grooming pets\u2014help keep everything fresher between washes, so your bed feels like a reset, not a risk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most people can keep a fresh, healthy bed by washing their sheets once a week, especially if they shower at night, keep food out of the bedroom, and don\u2019t share &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4287,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2],"class_list":["post-4286","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-trending","tag-breaking-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4286","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4286"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4286\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4288,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4286\/revisions\/4288"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
