Medical Council – A Monthly Journal for the Physican and Surgeon. Volume 15,1910
TO THE MEDICAL COUNCIL:
I wonder if any of the COUNCIL readers have ever tried a flaxseed pillow to rest a bed-ridden patient? Fill a bag or pillow slip three-fourths full of flaxseed, sew securely, place under the patient. This is not only cool, but the seeds slip to fit the body and prevent bed sores.
Nurse – 1910
Note: Flaxseed pillows are still made today
