"Smart clothes. " Birth one after another

The skin is the biggest organs of a human body that does an important working.

Because adult skin is made to about 1.6 square meters and weights about as much as 4 kg, it can be said the biggest organs in the person inside of the body. Then, what does this skin do?

First of all, it has the barrier function, it defend our bodies from a pathogenic microbe such as physical stimulation or viruses and bacilli etc. or the heat, the cold, moisture, and dryness, and functions in first to twine and to defend Mi body.It is a barrier that the material which is important so that it maintains physical functions such as a temperature and the humidity, bodily fluids only not protecting you with a body for stress from the outside does not go out.

Secondarily, it is a sensor function. It is a function it "senses" outside world environment (heat, cold), and this does it, and to protect a body. Therefore, in the skin, there is a nerve end, and the external world environment is perceived hourly. The second function links the first mutually and sweats when I am hot and lets a blood vessel of skin shrink when it is cold and controls release of a temperature and regulates body temperature.

The third is a function of metabolism. For example, skin borrows power of sunlight and makes vitamins D an active model.

Clothes protect the human body

Strangely, with a land warm-blooded animal (the animal that a temperature is always constant), only a human being has lost hair from skin. We do not understand this for some reason.
Therefore, man has expanded the living environment by covering with clothes to defend body from the heat and the cold. It was an animal fur, and it was designed to process and to use the material of flora and fauna such as hemp and silk in the course of time though it was a bark of a tree, and a leaf, etc.

In addition, it needed for the 20th century, and the human race developed the material of clothes from oil and coal, etc.This is nylon, a vinylon, and the field that keeps evolving still.

To clothes that keep evolving

The human race's device never stops even so. A very recent clothes keep evolving in addition, and the one that an advanced function was added appears in succession. The technology of Japan that has led the world that supports this is originally excellent in the fiber technology.

Recently, the fiber which I discharge a temperature when it is hot, and act on thermal insulation when it is cold, furthermore, the fiber which kept a function to hold allergy in check was devised. Dermatitis such as atopy occurs when this works excessively also because the skin is a place of immunity, about 20-30% of the school child worries because of it, and, in addition, it is extending even to the adult. Therefore it processed it into cotton fiber, and the thing which let extract of a leaf of a loquat soak was devised. A material of amygdalin was included, and this expected antiallergic action of this of a leaf of a loquat.


In addition, clothes that used the fiber material that made the germanium fixed were designed. This is the one having intended it when improve the circulation of the red blood corpuscle by applying a gloomy electric charge of the germanium. In addition, the one that charcoal was made fixed was designed. This is an application of the function with excellent charcoal (deodorant, anti-bacterium, and static electricity prevention, etc.) to clothes. Moreover, clothes that soaked refinement of oil Hinokitiorl of the Japanese cypress can have been worn. It is the one that this also expected the smell and the antibacterial activity of the Japanese cypress refinement of oil.

These are materials also in the medical treatment field expected very much. A function important by another one is internal organs of beauty though the skin is the biggest organs as these were mentioned above.
The human is judges the human energy, age, tiredness condition etc. from the color of the skin and the face or the wrinkle. That is, the skin is organs of important "Appreciation of the beautiful". It that wants to become healthy from the skin first of all that wants to keep a youthful skin is also as for our hope. We use higher technology freely and are realizing these now.The representative in the country that leads the world with this high performance intellectual (intelligent) clothes and goes is Japan.

Do your best Japan!!
