Many people in life are trying hard every day to improve their sleep quality. Not only does it make the bed sheets and quilts very comfortable, but the pillows are gradually replaced by latex pillows.
latex pillow has been very popular in recent years. Many businesses even praise latex pillows for treating cervical spondylosis , which is beneficial to improving sleep quality. So is latex pillow really so powerful?
First of all, let us understand the benefits of latex pillows
1. Latex pillows have strong elasticity and have very good support performance. Latex pillows can better protect the neck and the neck where the head is under heavy pressure and the place where the neck is supported can quickly recover without collapse, so it can effectively improve the spine and cervical spine.
2. The latex pillow is very breathable and can keep the pillow dry and comfortable. Countless pores can convey the heat and moisture emitted by the body, creating a better sleep atmosphere.

During the use, slowly correct their incorrect sleeping posture, fix their sleeping posture, and sleep more comfortably, and can also alleviate various sleep problems caused by cervical discomfort.
Is the latex pillow that merchants hyped is really natural?
Some people say that latex pillows should be purely natural. Is it safe to buy 100% pure latex pillows? However, according to the current production process, some merchants advertise that they sell 100% pure latex pillows, most of which have problems.
latex pillows inevitably need to add certain additives during the shaping process, which will cause the latex content in the latex pillow to drop below 95%, and the maximum is about 95%.
Generally speaking, if you can buy a latex pillow containing more than 88%, it can be called a pure natural latex pillow. If you can buy a latex pillow containing more than 90%, it can be called a high-quality latex pillow. Therefore, people do not have to pursue a 100% pure latex pillow, which is also difficult to do.
latex pillow contains toxic substances and can cause cancer. Is it true? Now it is not late to understand
In 2018, a professional evaluation agency on the Internet conducted ingredient tests on various latex pillows on the market and found that these latex pillows claimed to be from Thailand with a value of 800, a latex content of 100%, but only contain 68% natural latex and contains styrene butadiene rubber . Long-term use will increase the risk of cancer, so since then, latex pillows fell from the altar and became synonymous with carcinogens.
So is latex pillow containing toxic substances, which will induce cancer?
In fact, styrene butadiene rubber itself is non-toxic, but the raw materials of styrene rubber once contained styrene . Styrene is a suspected carcinogen and its characteristics are insoluble in water.
styrene may have some residues in styrene butadiene rubber. This substance cannot be removed by washing with water, but it also has a certain volatile nature. After oxidation, anisole and formaldehyde will produce certain carcinogenic effects.
What should you pay attention to when buying latex pillows?
1, latex content
The natural latex content in high-quality latex pillows is above 90%, and the medium natural latex content is 70%~80%.
2. Is there any professional check
latex pillow wood uses natural and unique raw materials, zero pollution and environmentally friendly, so it usually carries the environmentally friendly logo of ECO.
3. Pay attention to the smell of latex pillow
The smell of latex pillow can be detected by smell. A good natural latex pillow will emit a faint milky smell, which is not fake.
4. Production process
There are only two production processes for latex pillows: Dunlop's production process and Trary's production process. The latex sponge foamed by Trary method belongs to the open-cell structure, and the latex sponge foamed by Dunlop's foamed by the latex sponge belongs to the closed-cell structure.
Therefore, the latex pillow produced by the Traley process has better elasticity and better breathability, but the process is complex and cost is high, making it difficult to develop new products;
Dunlop's product has the advantages of low cost and fast development. When choosing a latex pillow, you can choose a latex pillow produced by the Traley process.
If the latex pillow turns yellow and clumpy, what should we do?
latex pillow is made of natural rubber tree . Natural latex can easily turn yellow after use for a long time. Whether you can use a latex pillow at this time depends on the yellowing degree of the latex pillow. If the yellowing degree of the latex pillow is not serious, you can continue to use it. Clean it accordingly and maintain it well.
But if the latex pillow is very yellow and has serious caking, don’t continue to use it at this time, it is recommended to throw it away directly.
latex pillow is yellow and clumped and cracked, which means that it has been used for a long time, the latex structure changes or rots and falls off. At this time, the effect of the latex pillow is not very good, so it is generally not recommended to continue using it.
latex pillows have poor quality and the latex content in the pillows is relatively low. It is not recommended to continue using this latex pillow, and it will not be of much help to people's health.
latex pillow is caused by special materials. If protection is not paid attention to during the cleaning process, it is easy to damage. Secondly, the latex pillow contains a large amount of natural latex. Regular cleaning can easily damage its internal structure, shorten its service life and use effect, so it is not recommended to clean it frequently.
