Question from magda
Hi Debra! I have questions about comforters. I need healthy option without chemicals and fire retardant. I can’t afford organic comforters ( I need 4 so it’s a lot of money for me) what is the best option for me? Thank You 
Debra’s Answer
White Lotus Home has great quality products at affordable prices. Here’s the webpage for their “green cotton” comforters: www.whitelotus.net/green-cotton-duvet/. They often have sales. You could get on their mailing list and you’ll be notified. I often announce them too but best to get on their list.
If that’s still too expensive, a couple of years ago when I was visiting San Francisco, I got a very inexpensive feather/down comforter at IKEA with a 100% cotton cover. Machine washable. $39.99. www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60133498/
There are no federal requirements for fire retardants on bed clothes, but check with IKEA to see if they add fire retardants. Things change so frequently that it’s difficult for me to keep up with companies, unless, like White Lotus Home, they have a dedicated “no-chemicals” policy.
