Many people on the streets of the city, especially young men and women, the neck are coincidentally wearing a similar to the ancient collar-like contraptions, colorful, novel style, very fashionable. Engaged in photography, Mr. Hong told reporters that some time ago his wife bought him a magical collar as a gift, said it can cure cervical spine disease, reduce the concentration of blood clots, "that is produced in Japan, the instructions are in Japanese, did not see what, in short, that is to say that there are some benefits to the human body, right"; and engaged in the office work of the Mr. Li told reporters that recently a friend mysteriously sent this thing to him, "said it can reduce computer radiation". And the reporter in Guangzhou somewhere in the store to see, "water-soluble titanium collar" the efficacy of the publicity of a variety of things, from the prevention of cervical spondylosis to reduce blood clots, from the enhancement of immunity to prevent computer radiation and so on are included in it. According to promotional materials, such titanium-containing products through a unique technology, titanium metal and water soluble into the raw materials made of health care products, many sports stars are also attracted to this. A seemingly ordinary collar really have such a magical effect? This reporter made an in-depth visit. The reporter investigated the use of specialty stores and network "red" The reporter came to the Mayflower Plaza, located in Beijing Road, Guangzhou, Phiten Shop store, a small store, a simple layout, do not look at it thought it was an ordinary sports merchandise store. The reporter noted that the store's glass door is affixed with many star photos, Liu Xiang, Zhou Penchang, Zhang Nala, Liza Wang, Andy Lau, Li Bingbing, S.H.E, and badminton national team members and so on are among them, without exception, these actors and sports stars of the session of the neck are wearing a kind of cloth containing titanium collars. And into the store, a series of titanium products on display, there are said to relieve neck, shoulder discomfort collar, also said to relieve joint pain in the knees and other leg guards, there are said to relieve the waist and muscle tension of the adhesive stickers and bandages, in addition, there are wrist guards, titanium socks, hats, clothes, insoles and so on. The reporter paid special attention to the collar, also divided into fabric and plastic several kinds, including a fabric titanium collar, the price is also from 230 yuan to 980 yuan range. According to the clerk, these products are produced in Japan, and in Japan has been popular for a long time, and into the Guangzhou sales only more than a year. The manufacture of such products using a patented technology in Japan "Phild treatment" - so that the fiber impregnated with titanium ultra-micro particles. Allegedly, this technology was invented by a Japanese chiropractor to adjust the body's current disruption caused by stress and fatigue. It is also reported that titanium has a special current properties, can adjust the chaotic body current and make it orderly flow in the body, the body will have a beneficial physiological effect and its chemical stability, beneficial to human physical and mental health. Sales staff revealed that titanium products in Guangzhou is quite a good seller, buyers are introduced through friends, some people are in Japan to learn about this type of product, there are people who see the star athletes are wearing the decision to buy to try. The salesperson enthusiastically invited customers to experience the product for themselves. First of all, consumers are required to bend their hands into 90 degrees, slightly away from the body, and then lift a bottle of about 1 liter of water with one finger, feel the weight of the water; after the sales staff for the customer to put on titanium wrist guards, repeat the action just now, and said that this time consumers will feel the quality of the water is light. The reporter asked a few consumers on the spot, whether the water is lighter than the statement is different. The reporter found that at present, this titanium products are basically not into the super, but through the form of specialty stores for sale, many communities or busy commercial areas can also see the figure of this product. The reporter searched the Internet, the sale of such products online seems to be more "lively", most of them hit the Japanese production or South Korea's products under the banner of the efficacy of publicity is also a variety of prices from dozens of dollars to hundreds of dollars. Formal dealers have never operated such products Guangzhou Jin Kang chain of pharmacies, general manager Zheng Hao Tao told reporters that so far no formal dealers to contact with its sales of such products. Zheng Hao Tao told reporters, only before there was a supposedly can be attached to the feet to lose weight products, but later proved to be counterfeit products, and then was investigated by the relevant departments, "as far as I know, Guangzhou formal dealers basically did not sell these products, I have been involved in the pharmaceutical industry for more than 10 years, according to my experience, such a simple product has such a magical function, it seems unlikely. The function, the feeling seems unlikely." The reporter then called several other large chain drugstores in Guangzhou, the response is not sold such products. According to the analysis of a senior industry insiders, titanium metal in the human body temperature conditions and body fluids, pharmaceutical contact will not dissolve, ionization, and does not react with the human body's musculoskeletal, so it is known as "pro-biotic metal", but titanium-containing products can treat the spine, fatigue, so far no medical literature has been found to provide support for its claim. Medical experts Medical experts magical effect is not credible was boasted so magical metal titanium collar, medical experts are skeptical of its publicity of a variety of efficacy. Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, director of a bone Lin Dingkun pointed out that shoulder and neck fatigue, cervical spondylosis is due to the cervical spine of the bone joints, intervertebral discs and their surrounding soft tissue damage, degeneration, resulting in the cervical nerve root, vertebral artery and other stimulation or damage caused by, so even if the titanium can really regulate the human body's electric current, the therapeutic effect, I'm afraid that is also very little. The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, Dr. Huang Jian nutrition, titanium metal can not be absorbed by the body, but also through the skin absorption is not possible, titanium itself has no obvious auxiliary effect on human health, as for other titanium-containing products are unlikely to have a significant role in soothing shoulder and neck fatigue. Huang Jian said, to alleviate shoulder and neck fatigue due to prolonged sitting in the office, in addition to their own movement, you can do shoulder and neck exercises, physiotherapy, hot compresses, local massage or rub some oil, such as oil, these are on the shoulder and neck fatigue relief has a certain effect, light wear a collar can not play a traction and physiotherapy role. And Zhongshan hospital internal medicine professor Liao Xiaoxing told reporters, "as a clinician, I have never heard of a metal collar can cure so many diseases, as of now, I have never heard of and no medical literature mentioned." Liao Xiaoxing said, titanium this metal can not be absorbed by the body, from modern medicine can not find what principle can explain this metal titanium has these effects. "China's folk tradition of wearing jade and pearls, that has a certain health function, in fact, this health function is also more of a psychological implication, from the physiological point of view is actually unlikely." Experts remind the use of radioactive metal to be careful Liao Xiaoxing interview with reporters for the so-called metal therapy expressed concern. According to its introduction, because some metals contain radioactive substances, there have been people in order to harm others, will be such substances into each other's offices, the results after some years, the person appeared leukemia, the need for bone marrow transplantation. Liao Xiaoxing said, a few years ago, there was a so-called "magnetized cup", it is said that this cup has the function of magnetized water, drink this water will be able to strengthen the body; there are a number of magnetized pillows and other products, but then these products are gone gradually disappeared. "I estimate that this metal titanium collar is also a trend of consumer products, after a period of time when we all feel that it does not have any effect, it will naturally not go back to buy." (Source: Nanfang Daily by Shen Yun) Titanium collars: jewelry or health products? Can the popular titanium collar really "effectively relieve cervical spine pain"? Experts believe that - titanium collar can only ring money Not long ago, love to catch up with the fashion of Mr. He spent more than 300 yuan, bought a very hot in Shanghai and other places called "Fattan" titanium collar. "The publicity said that this 'water-soluble titanium' technology made of products that can effectively relieve cervical spine pain, but after a few days, did not find any obvious effect." Mr. He told reporters. Relevant medical experts believe that the discovery of cervical spine discomfort of office workers, it is best to be treated through physical therapy or medication. "Water-soluble titanium" technology to eliminate fatigue According to the clues provided by Mr. He, the reporter came to a shopping mall in Haishu District, Ningbo, "Fattan" counter. Shelves on the product's many varieties, in addition to Mr. He bought the collar, there are all kinds of wrist rings, protective gear. Sales staff told reporters that the "law vine" using advanced "water-soluble titanium" technology, can effectively relax muscles, eliminate fatigue. Although the price is more in two or three hundred dollars, but in Shanghai is very hot, many sports stars are using this product. Said the salesman also let the reporter hand straight, first mentioned a bottle of water on the counter, and then in the hands of the reporter stuffed a piece of cloth using the "water-soluble titanium" technology, with the same method and then mention once again: "Is not the feeling of the second time some light?" When the reporter replied that there is no difference between the two feelings, the salesman said with a smile: "may be your body current is not on it." When the reporter asked whether the authority of the "law vine" efficacy of the certification, the sales staff just took out a few patent certificates, but there is no mention of any of the above "efficacy" of the description. "Water-soluble titanium" technology in fact how much effect? The People's Liberation Army 113th Hospital, a sports medicine specialist doctor said, "water-soluble titanium" technology is not currently the mainstream of medical treatment, Beijing, Shanghai, these medical treatment at the forefront of the country's cities have not begun to use titanium technology, and he is the first time to hear. As to whether it can make the bioelectric current in a relatively stable state, reduce the discomfort produced by pressure, it is difficult to find medical evidence. He suggests that office workers who usually suffer from cervical discomfort should still be treated with certified methods such as physical therapy and medication. The main thing is to pay attention to the usual sitting posture, diet structure. Suspected of false propaganda Haishu industry and commerce department recently received a consumer consultation, law enforcement officers came to the "law vine" counter for investigation. Law enforcement officers on the scene found that the "law vine" series of products do not belong to the medical device, but its advertisements appeared in a large number of such as "law vine titanium-containing health products to help the human body to relax the muscles, eliminate fatigue, relieve the aches and pains in various parts of the body," and so on, the efficacy of the publicity. Law enforcement officials told reporters that due to the sales site can not produce the relevant efficacy of the authoritative identification materials, so the product is suspected of false propaganda. Law enforcement officials told reporters, involving the efficacy of publicity products, sales at the same time to be able to show the relevant efficacy of the materials, otherwise it violates the consumer's right to know. It is understood that the Haishu industry and commerce department will investigate this case. (Market Newspaper reporter Xuan Jun) 25
