Studies show that unwashed pillowcases can accumulate an amazing 3 million bacteria after just one week.
That's 17,000 times more than what's found on an average toilet seat.
The buildup comes from sweat, dead skin cells, saliva, and even airborne dust that settles over time, creating an ideal environment for bacteria to grow.
Experts strongly recommend changing pillowcases at least once a week to prevent the accumulation of this germ.
Washing your bedding regularly isn't just about cleanliness - it's essential for health, especially for those with allergies or sensitive skin.
Changing pillows and sheets weekly can significantly reduce exposure to bacteria, dust mites and allergens, providing a cleaner and healthier sleeping environment.
