Has the Cause of SIDS Been Discovered Snellville Organization Presents SIDS Prevention Facts to Parents Across the Country
May 8, 2005 -- Dr. TJ Sprott of New Zealand, and Barry Richardson of Britain discovered the Toxic Gas Theory for Crib Death quite by accident, but their discovery led to the development of a polyethylene mattress cover, also known as the BabeSafe mattress cover. This development is integral to the theory, because scientists who refute the toxic gas theory cannot refute that close to 200,000 babies worldwide have slept on wrapped mattresses with 0 crib deaths. Statistically speaking, about 100 babies should have died.
Why don't you already know about this For one thing, the theory blames government-required flame retardants in baby mattresses for crib death. Fungus that naturally grows in all mattresses, eats away at the chemicals phosphorus, arsenic, and antimony, and this process releases a deadly gas which the baby breaths in. The government will never admit it's liability for baby deaths across the country.
Another more important reason for the delay of this information is the SIDS industry itself. Not only would the industry lose it's funding, it would collapse since there is nothing left to "discover." There would be numerous scientists out of work, and many foundations left with nothing to meet about. Many of these organizations were formed by former SIDS parents whose mission in life is to find a "cure" for SIDS. Many of these parents are adamant that there is a physical cause of SIDS, and that there was nothing they could do to prevent it. They grow defensive at the mention of a SIDS prevention method that has already shown it is scientifically proven to work.
The BabeSafe mattress cover is like a plastic pillow case that slips onto a crib, bassinet, or co-sleeper mattress. Other bedding protocol must be followed such as only 100% cotton underblanket (used in place of a mattress pad), cotton sheets, and cotton or woolen blankets. No synthetic fibers such as polyester or acrylic are allowed. The most dangerous bed for a baby is one that has been reused from the first, second, etc. child. The more a mattress has been slept on, the more important it is to cover it because they grow more deadly from one child to the next. Mattress wrapping has grown in popularity during the last 10 years, as parents and doctors slowly catch on to the concept.
Prevent-sids.org was developed to help new parents researching on the internet get some solid answers about SIDS. It is imperative that this information reach other parents who don't have the fore-thought to research this information on their own. SIDS is the leading cause of death in babies 0-12 months of age. Approximately 3,000 SIDS deaths take place in the US every year. It is completely preventable, and that is the biggest tragedy of all.
