Frequently Asked Questions – Negative Ion Clothing
- What are Negative Ions?
Negative ions are molecules present in our surrounding air or atmosphere that are negatively charged. In this context, it can be referred to as oxygen atoms with extra (negatively charged) electrons.
- Where can we find Negative Ions in our surroundings?
Negative ions are commonly found in abundance in nature, especially around waterfalls, ocean surf, beaches, mountains, and forests.
- How do Negative Ions benefit us?
- Negative ions benefit us in many ways. This includes:Neutralising free radicals
- Revitalising cell metabolism
- Boosting immune function
- Purifying the blood and improves blood circulation
- Balancing the autonomic nervous system
- Promoting deep sleep
- Improves digestion
- Purifying air from airborne allergens, dust, pet dander, and cigarette smoke.
- Why Negative Ion clothing?
To reap the health benefits of negative ions, there has been a surge in the prevalence of wellness products associated with negative ions.
While it is great to raise the atmospheric concentration of negative ions in your surroundings, the absorption of negative ions is 5 times more efficient through our skin via tactile contact. As such, the use of quality negative ion clothing would result in more visible health benefits.

- Avoid more than 60°C/140°F of hot water.
- Do not wash with dirty or colored clothings.
- Do not use fabric softeners, bleach or anti-static agent.
- Do not use a dryer or any heated device such as iron or steam cleaner.
- Use of Nature’s Clean All Natural Biodegradable Laundry Detergent is highly recommended.
