An expert has revealed how often bedsheets should be changed, after Stacey Solomon sparked debate for revealing how often she switches her bedding.
The Loose Women panellist was interviewed by Hits Radio host James Barr on Wednesday, who asked the presenter how often he should change his bed clothes? The 33 year-old advised Barr that he should refresh them "once a week" but then quickly changed her answer to once a month after she saw his shock at her response.
Her revelation has sparked controversy among social media users. One Twitter user said: "Once a week is quite often? I usually do two weeks!" While another wrote: "Twice a week at least is normal for me!”
Now, Martin Seeley, the CEO and sleep expert at MattressNextDay has revealed that Stacey is right to change her bedding every seven days, as they can harbour bacteria, the Express repots.
“Despite her answer shocking radio listeners, Stacey Solomon is right. Every night, the average person sweats at least 200ml of liquid, which naturally seeps through to your duvet," said Martin.
“Further studies show that the average bedding harbours around 20,000 dust mites which can be triggering for those that suffer from allergies, therefore, causing a runny nose, congestion and more.
“Given that 80 percent of dust mites are made up of your dead skin, which you naturally produce more of overnight, you should be washing your bedding at least once a week."
The specialist added that there are some circumstances in which bedding should be cleaned even more during the week. He said: However, if you tend to get night sweats or get hot flushes, you should wash your bed sheets even more often.
"If your bedding feels damp or ‘clammy’ in the morning, you should strip them and wash them
