    However, there are also those who are skeptical. The latex pillow is just an ordinary pillow, but with a different name. Does changing the name have such a magical effect?

    Some people even worry that this kind of pillow with special effects is just a gimmick for merchants to seek profits. If such a pillow is left for a long time, it is not only harmful to the body, but also may pose a fatal threat to health because it contains things that we don't know? Are harmful substances carcinogenic to the body?

    Let's break it down in detail. Latex pillows contain toxic substances? You don't have to guess, you may understand after reading it.

    In 2018, a professional evaluation agency on the Internet tested the composition of various latex pillows on the market. It was found that the latex pillow from Thailand had only 68% natural latex content, and styrene-butadiene rubber was in the middle. If such a pillow is used for a long time, it is likely to increase the risk of disease, especially carcinogenicity.

    Because of this report, when the latex pillow fell from the altar, every time it was mentioned, it became synonymous with carcinogens. So, does latex pillows really contain toxic substances that can cause cancer? The first thing to know is styrene-butadiene rubber.

    In fact, styrene-butadiene rubber itself is non-toxic, but if it is synthetic, the raw material of styrene-butadiene rubber contains styrene. This substance is suspected carcinogen, insoluble in water and cannot be removed by washing. Formaldehyde and anisole will be found to be produced after oxidation.

    These two substances have a certain carcinogenic effect. It can be seen that some latex pillows may indeed contain some carcinogens, and everyone's physique is different. If you buy an unqualified latex pillow, it will not only cause ** allergies, but also produce carcinogens.

    There are two kinds of latex, one is natural latex, the other is synthetic latex, natural latex in the process of use as long as your pillow resilience is better, can improve the symptoms of cervical spine discomfort, can improve our sleep quality, then it is harmless. It can be used normally.

    Another point is also very important, over time, even if you use a natural latex pillow, then it also has a certain life cycle or years, it is generally recommended to replace it in one to two years, because this natural latex will slowly undergo some oxidation and aging over time, such as elasticity, air permeability, antibacterial properties will gradually weaken, if the elasticity is not very good, it will affect the cervical spine, resulting in insomnia and many other problems, such as poor antibacterial ability, human body heat dissipation and sweating, which will lead to bacterial breeding, It is not good for health, causes a decrease in immunity, etc.

    Latex pillow is almost no harm to the human body, it is very helpful for the human body's sleep, and can improve the body's immunity.
