    2026/03/31

    Are your bedsheets or clothing quietly irritating your skin… without you realizing it?

    In this episode of the Eczema Podcast, I sit down with Michel May, founder of AIZOME Bedding, to uncover something most people overlook:

    👉 Even "organic" fabrics can still contain synthetic, petrochemical dyes that may disrupt your skin barrier and trigger eczema.

    Michel shares the personal story behind his mission, after watching his mother experience severe skin reactions during chemotherapy. That moment led him to rethink what we sleep on every night.

    We also explore the ancient Japanese indigo dye once used by Samurai for wound healing and infection prevention… now being backed by modern science.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

    1️⃣ How textile dyes may be worsening your eczema
    2️⃣ Why plant-dyed fabrics could better support your skin
    3️⃣ What to look for in truly skin-safe bedding beyond "organic"
