Summary

The average person spends nearly 3,000 hours in bed sleeping every year. That’s a lot of time spent on your mattress and pillows. In this segment, I go over the history of this innovative invention and why we’re so taken by it.

I know this may be frustrating, but I’m trying to open your eyes to dangerous products lurking in your home.
