Spelt pillows are perfectly breathable
One of the most notable spelt hulls benefits is their breathability. Spelt hulls are small objects that leave enough space inside the pillow and provide better breathability. More importantly, spelt hulls don’t retain heat like synthetic foam does. Because the pillow doesn’t retain heat or moisture, there is no room for microorganisms to grow. So, apart from the comfort, such breathable characteristic makes a healthier pillow. Such pillows are capable of offering better comfort even during hot days. A spelt hulls pillow is great even as a side sleeper pillow.

You can wash them and reuse
When it comes to spelt hulls benefits, we cannot neglect their washable characteristics of the pillow covers. We do not recommend washing the hulls, as they are natural, ecological, coming from mother nature products. If not dry, the microorganisms can grow in them.
In addition to that, experts say that spelt hulls can promote perfect neck posture and help alleviate neck pains. The tiny objects (individual spelt hulls) move according to the pressure your head applies and facilitate correct neck position even if you use it as a side sleeper pillow. On top of that, these small hulls can gently massage the neck muscles and ease any existing pains. So, if you buy a spelt hulls pillow with GOTS certification, this is a very wise investment.
