Nano Flex™ Technology

How 5-in-1 Nano Flex™ Technology Works

UWG™’s unique line of Nano Flex® compression products provide the wearer with the latest technology in compression supports. The Nano technology utilized in the construction of the polyester filament yarn within the support, provides numerous therapeutic functions for the body.

Helps produce Far Infrared Rays and Negative Ions (Anion) that can help to maintain body warmth and may enhance the natural healing processes of the body.

High Performance Compression Support

• Can help increase blood flow
• Naturally reduces body odor
• Moisture-wicking
• Naturally anti-bacterial
• Closed patella design for best support and comfort
• Helps increase circulation
• Retains warmth to knee muscles and tendons
• 4-way stretch for even compression

Negative Ions and Far Infrared Rays

What are Infrared Rays?

• Rays or FIR are natural rays of light that are hidden from sight because they are just below what we humans can see as color.  It is important to understand how important FIR is to our health and well–being.  Adequate doses of this light energy is important for our body to function correctly as it has direct and positive influence on the functioning of the billions of individual cells you have in your body.  Our body is continually in a state of repairing itself, new cells are replacing damaged old ones and FIR plays major role in this. FIR improves overall cellular performance from better enzyme production from better enzyme production to the elimination of waste by products and toxins.
• The longest light rays within the infrared spectrum & are considered to be the most beneficial to all life on the planet.
• Atmospheric pollution blocks FIR, so an outside agency to assist body in utilizing them is helpful.

Far Infrared Rays Health Benefits?

• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR warms and stimulates body tissue — this; improves circulation, reduces swelling and inflammation, and stimulates increase in new blood cells, which acts as an energy booster on the body and eliminates body toxins quicker.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR strengthens body’s resistance to infectious disease by increasing lymphocytes, which reduce frequency of respiratory infections.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR increases oxygen capacity in blood.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR increases body’s tolerance to stress.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR is Anti–aging.  FIR stimulates cell tissue growth by regeneration of skin tissue and blood cells lost to aging.– FIR speeds cellular metabolism by stimulating mitochondria an enzyme activity.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR’s cell stimulation also increases bone growth and strength.
• American Medical Association testing shows that FIR increases body’s melatonin (helps, sleeping, aging and reproduction), cortisone (naturally occurring steroid in body) and testosterone (growth hormone occurring naturally in all humans).
• FIR can help relieve pain.
• FIR can help boost the immune system.
• FIR can help decrease hyperactivity.
• FIR can help burn calories and control weight.
• FIR can help strengthen the cardiovascular system.
• FIR can help remove waste and toxins.
• FIR can help regulate psychological well being.

What are Negative Ions?

• Ions are molecules that have gained or lost an electrical charge.  They are created in nature by molecules breaking apart due to sunlight, radiation and moving air and water.
• Many studies of the relationship of ions to our health have been made by professional researchers who agree that our health is dependent on the amount of and quality of ions in the air.
• According to the experts, positive ions rob us of our good senses and dispositions, while their counterpart negative ions increase the flow of oxygen to the brain; resulting in higher alertness, decreased drowsiness, therefore more mental energy.
• Negative ions or ‘Anions’ are sometimes referred to as “the vitamin of the air.”

Nano Flex Fiber Promotes Negative Ions.

By wearing products that promote negative ions, people surround themselves with a shield, which limits problems that arise from positive ions in the air.  Air conditioning depletes the atmosphere of negative ions, but certain conditions generate ions, such as the shower in home.  When a negative ion clothing or support product rubs against anything, it produces static electricity (ions or anions).  There are no age restrictions in the use of Nano Flex products.  They are safe and healthy to wear.  This comfortable, nonabsorbent material causes perspiration to evaporate quickly.  The raw material of this extremely refined Nano Flex fiber is chloridated polyethylene by an advanced–technological method.  To keep its ability to create negative ions, this revolutionary, durable fiber is best maintained it is machine washed, delicate cycle in cold water and air-dried.

Negative Ion Health Benefits

• Negative ions can help purify blood and increase circulation, which enables sustained muscle contraction and reduces short–term fatigue.
• Negative ions can accelerate muscle repair, regeneration and recovery.
• Negative ions can assist in keeping the body temperature constant.
• Negative ions can trap and transform electrolytes into usable energy.
• Negative ions can help increase lung capacity.
• Negative ions help increase metabolic properties of tissue and prevent build up metabolic waste to reduce alleviate inflammation and pain.
• Negative ions help stabilize symptoms of chronic disease.
• Negative ions help strengthen immunity.
• Negative ions help breakdown and remove toxins.
• Negative ions help fight infection.
• Negative ions help increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress and boost energy.
• Negative ions help autonomic nerves.
