Companies selling products for people with allergies or MCS

You may have to purchase some products to rid you of some allergens in your home and your workplace, such as air cleaners, special bags for your vacuum cleaner, and dust-mite proof bed sheets. If you are chemically sensitive, your needs are more complicated.

I have used all these mail order companies (except Naturlich), and been very satisfied with their products and friendly service. I am sure there are many other good companies, and this is not an endorsement, just a list of resources, among many.
