Many sleep experts recommend replacing your bed pillows around every two years. Your pillows absorb a lot of substances over many nights of sleep, including body oil, sweat and dead skin cells. If you can't recall when you bought your pillows, do this simple test: Fold your pillow in half. If it doesn't bounce back right away, or worse, stays folded in half, it's time to replace that pillow. Also, invest in a pillow cover to create an extra protective barrier for even healthier sleep.
