Your circadian rhythms are heavily influenced by your biological clock. This biological clock is found in the brain and it’s what makes you hungry every day around the same time, what controls your body temperature, and what makes you feel tired and awake again. Your biological clock has a fixed rhythm of about 24 hours.

What makes a good bed base so important?

A good bed base is extremely important because it guarantees the right level of support and ventilation. The right bed base lengthens the life of your mattress (thanks to proper ventilation) and ensures it gives you great support by applying the right amount of counter-pressure just where you need it. You can choose from two different bed systems: a regular bed and a box spring. For both a bed and a box spring you can choose from a range of different bed bases.
