First of all, the raw material of latex is pure natural rubber tree juice (extremely precious, each tree produces 30CC every day and can only be picked at night). Rubber juice has another feature: its fragrance makes mosquitoes reluctant to get close. Because of this feature, latex pillows can better promote sleep and inhibit bacteria, and mosquitoes will no longer buzz in their ears when sleeping in summer. Latex pillow is made by physical foaming, which will not destroy its unique characteristics, and is extremely breathable and anti-mite. Latex pillow also has other characteristics: good elasticity, that is, resilience, no deformation, environmental protection and natural, washable. But remember not to expose yourself to the sun. It powders latex materials.
The types of latex pillows are relatively simple, generally divided into particle massage pillows, particle-free massage pillows, conventional pillows, shoulder pillows, children's pillows, baby-shaped pillows, cartoon pillows and U-shaped pillows (4 /5 baby bedding and mattresses), and each type of pillow has its own characteristics. The best-selling products in China are: granular/non-granular high and low pillows (10- 12CM), which are suitable for the general public, whether they are used to sleeping on high pillows or low pillows. Of course, these pillows are designed according to ergonomics, so these heights will not be too high or too low. Scientific suggestion: It is recommended that children before 1 year-old should not use pillows. 1-5-year-old children can use small pillows with a thickness of 6-8CM. This material should be soft and breathable. 6- 10 years old can use a medium-sized pillow, the thickness is 8- 12CM, and the material should be soft, breathable and resilient. 12- 18 years old can use medium and large pillows, the thickness is 12- 15CM, and the material is Microsoft, which has good air permeability and toughness. Pillows are used to support cervical vertebrae. Too high, too big and too hard will affect the forward tilt of the thoracic spine (that is, the shoulder joint). Over time, the child's tender cervical vertebra will be deformed, which will seriously lead to the child's hunchback.
Latex pillow: natural, environmental-friendly, pollution-free, non-toxic, anti-mite, antibacterial, anti-allergic, effectively improving cervical and lumbar vertebrae and lowering blood pressure, effectively reducing snoring, suitable for asthma patients. By the way, the latex pillow has a honeycomb structure and is stingy and Kong Qianqian, so it will feel warm in winter and cool in summer when used.
Washable: The most convenient thing about latex pillows is that they can be washed. Natural latex pillows are easy to clean by hand (generally not needed, just tap them gently). As long as it is dried by electric fan or low-temperature oven after dehydration, it will never be deformed, easy to maintain, foldable and easy to collect, and it is the most comfortable choice for pursuing healthy sleep. When cleaning, you must wash it by hand, not in the washing machine or other mechanical equipment, because it will be twisted.

3. Which is better, latex pillow or memory pillow?
There are many kinds of pillows, and the materials are different, so in life, we often see all kinds of advertisements about pillows, some of which pay attention to comfort and some of which have certain health care significance. Nowadays, when choosing a pillow, many people will struggle with the question of which is better, latex pillow or memory pillow. Then let's introduce it to you in detail.
Latex pillow:
The latex pillow is made of pure natural latex, which is breathable and hygroscopic, natural and environmentally friendly, pollution-free, non-toxic, anti-mite, anti-bacterial and anti-allergic, and has natural anti-bacterial and anti-mite functions, even without DuPont anti-mite cover. However, it has high toughness and cannot play a good role in relieving pressure. Because it is a pure natural material, its service life will be longer.
Memory pillow:
Memory pillow is a synthetic artificial sponge, which belongs to the sponge family. Its scientific name is inert sponge, and its aliases are slow rebound sponge, memory sponge, zero pressure sponge, space memory sponge, wisdom sponge and so on. Its English name is Memory Foam, and its main component is polyurethane foam. Slow rebound pillow, also known as slow rebound pillow, is a kind of pillow made of slow rebound material. Its function is not to increase people's memory, but because the pillow that is often used will form the inherent shape of the head and neck. Most memory pillows are slow rebound pillows.
These are some advantages of latex pillows and memory pillows. After introducing these contents, you should know which pillow type you are more suitable for. In fact, you should not turn a blind eye to these small pillows, because only by choosing the most suitable pillow can you sleep more comfortably.
Fourth, what kind of pillow is good?
What kind of pillow is the best? In fact, people often think about this problem. They want to find the best pillow, it is better to find the one that suits them best. The choice of pillows is very important for our sleep quality and health. Because the pillow is composed of two parts: the pillow core and the pillowcase, we should take these two aspects into account in order to find the most suitable pillow for us.
The pillowcase of the pillow need not be introduced too much. As we all know, pure cotton or silk is a good choice. The pillow core is the most important part of the pillow. Choosing the right pillow core can better improve the quality of sleep. There are many kinds of pillow cores, such as chemical fiber, buckwheat, mung bean and cassia seed. , but the function of each material is different. You should choose the pillow that suits you according to your physical needs, so that you will know what kind of pillow is the best in your heart. Let's learn about different pillow cores.
1 chemical fiber pillow: cheap but not practical.
This is an ordinary pillow made of man-made fiber. Because the material of man-made fiber is airtight, it is easy to deform into blocks after long use, lacking elasticity, and the pillow is uneven. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not choose this cheap but impractical pillow when purchasing pillows.
2 down pillow: easy to use but inconvenient to clean.
Feather down has excellent softness, warmth retention and elasticity. It is not only light in texture and good in personal fit, but also rich in moisture absorption and release, so it won't feel stuffy when used. A good down pillow has good bulkiness, will not be deformed due to long-term use, and has the advantages of light weight, breathability and no mugginess. But it is not easy to clean, and some people are allergic to down. The ratio of down and feather branches will affect the hardness and height of the pillow, and the type can be selected according to the instructions on the pillow. If you like to sleep a little higher, it is recommended to buy two pillows with different hardness as a match, and put the harder pillow under it to get the most comfortable sleeping angle.
Buckwheat pillow: there is a reason for its own existence.
Using buckwheat shell as pillow core is a traditional pillow used by the people. Choosing buckwheat husk, mung bean husk, millet and silkworm excrement as fillers is economical and practical, which will play a certain role in preventing cervical spondylosis. What kind of pillow is good? Buckwheat shell is light and has a tough and unbreakable diamond structure. As a pillow core, it can change shape with the movement of the head, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has the effect of clearing heat and removing fire. But the disadvantage is that it is not suitable for cleaning, and it is best to bask regularly.
Latex pillow: It's all good except the price.
The juice extracted from natural oak is soft, comfortable, elastic and not easy to deform after foaming at high temperature, and its support for human cervical vertebra is relatively improved. Latex pillow has more than 3000 holes on its surface, which looks like sponge cake. Its material has the characteristics of good antibacterial property, long service life, difficult deformation, strong support and easy cleaning, but its price is relatively expensive. Natural latex extracted from oak milk contains no infectious substances, is mild and skin-friendly, and its unique fragrance can catalyze human sleep factors. It is one of the most natural sleeping materials at present. What kind of pillow is good? I think latex pillow is the most suitable, but the price is a little expensive.
5 memory pillow: the most comfortable pillow
The memory pillow is made of high-density, shock-absorbing and breathable memory technology cotton, which can fully sense the weight and temperature characteristics of the human body. Temperature-induced subsidence can simulate human body shape, fully support all parts, and let users enjoy stress-free comfort. The unique temperature sensing effect, comfortable and soft touch and uniform and complete support make your head completely relaxed during sleep, and you can keep the most natural head posture whether you sleep on your back or on your side, so as to avoid fatigue and soreness of stiff neck or neck and shoulder muscles. Memory is more conducive to the health care of cervical spine.
6 cassia seed health pillow: the effect depends on yourself
Raw cassia seed used as a pillow for external use is put into a cloth bag and made into a pillow. Cassia seed is slightly cold and slightly fragrant with grass. Sleeping with a pillow smells like sleeping in the green grass. Its hard seeds can also massage the head and neck points, so it has an auxiliary effect on headache, dizziness, insomnia, cerebral arteriosclerosis and cervical spondylosis caused by hyperactivity of liver yang. What kind of pillow is good? Cassia seed has many natural physical therapy uses, which are widely used in the fields of lowering blood pressure, relaxing bowels and losing weight.
In addition, because the skin is delicate when children choose pillows, it is best to choose plant pillows such as buckwheat and mung beans, and the pillows should not be too high. It is best to choose a pure cotton pillowcase. There are many kinds of pillows. As long as you take what you need, you will know what kind of pillow is best. Also, if a friend wants to try a pillow type that is not commonly used at ordinary times, because he is not familiar with it, he needs to give his body a few days to adapt, so as not to affect his sleep.
