| We are returning our high end Thempur-pedic tomrrow after 86 days of trying to get use to it. I found it way to hot and I live in NH and keep the heat at 55 degrees, I can only imagine how it would be in the summer! I also did not find it inviting, to hard and I woke up everytime I had to change positions and climb out of a hole. My question is will I have the same type of experience with a Flobed? Is it also like sitting on a rock? Our last interspring mattress was terrible and prefer not to go back to one of those. Please help! |

Boy, eagle2, I feel like I just got beatup! My husband was happy with the Thempur-pedic. I was the one who was not happy with it and we only had 2 days left on our 90 day trial. I was trying to like it for my husband's sake, but when we had a few nice days here in New England and the temperature got into the 60's I really started to feel the "heat" so to speak. Come summer, it would have been unbearable. So, a decision had to be made. I showed my husband the Flobed website and he was not interested in that route. (that was after I requested info from this site) It's obvious that I could not sell him on this option even with the opinions from this site. So please forgive me for wasting your time. Leo3, I don't know where you get your info, but soy is still an excellent source of plant based protein. We eat soy 3 or 4 times a week. Only people with estrogen receptor positive malignancies need to be careful with the amount of soy based products they consume. Soy bean oil, a renewable source, is being used to replace petroleum based chemicals when making polyurethanes used in insulation, padding, clothing, and resin for adhesives. Kimberly H, thank you for sticking up for me. I appreciate the support and I'll let you all know what we think of the Spaldin. Take care all |

I got my information from the same place you did. Soy is an estrogen feeder. Most of the world has problems with estrogen overload. I don't pretend to know more than you or less. Good luck to you. |

| Leo3, I have a hard time believing that the estrogen overload (which I agree is a growing problem) is due to the soy bean. It's more likely an outcome of synthetic hormones being injected into our food supply worldwide. |
It is another contributing factor adding to estrogen overload. Milk, eggs, cheese, and meat that are treated with antibiotics/hormones is a major contributing factor. But that is another forum LOL. This message was modified Mar 31, 2010 by Leo3

I agree. Anything good to eat/drink raises estrogen. Even fat from cheesecake or meat. Anything that your liver has to filter out and work harder doing so raises estrogen so "they" say.
