When deciding what sorts of accessories to clothe your bed in, are you choosy about the kind of pillow you sleep on? Scientists say you should be. The right pillow is essential for achieving a good nights sleep.

Personal preference plays a big part in pillow selection, but a good pillow will conform to the sleeper, providing support for both the skull and spine. It will also not be too tall or to low for the sleeper when sleeping on the back or side, making the neck fall at an awkward angle that can cause muscle strain and encourage sleep issues such as snoring.

A good pillow can also help prevent sleeping disorders such as insomnia, stressing that such disorders raise the risk of health problems such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity and depression. ("Good pillow is vital for health.")
