Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a healthy cosmetic tool normally stably generating ions thereby keeping and promoting the health of a user, and the beauty of the user as a result.SOLUTION: The healthy cosmetic tool 10 has the extremely low probability that radiation discharged from a low radiation source 1 adversely affects a human body, since low radiation source powder or a molded article of the powder is coated 3, 5 with metal. Besides, an ion generation effect is unexpectedly reinforced by the metal coating 3, 5. Thus, the user using the healthy cosmetic tool is given a health promoting effect and a relaxing effect.

Description

  The present invention relates to a health and beauty instrument containing a natural radioactive element mineral.

  In recent years, it has been noted that ionizing air can provide various health promotion effects such as promoting metabolism, promoting blood circulation, recovering from fatigue, increasing appetite, restful sleep, and analgesia to the human body. For example, it is said that if you are in a room using a wall material that generates ions, you can relax due to effects such as promoting metabolism, promoting blood circulation, and recovering from fatigue (Patent Document 1). In addition, an attempt to promote the generation of ions is also known by adding ore powder containing rare earth elements to tourmaline powder and material (Patent Document 2).

  However, since tourmaline itself hardly generates ions, the effect of ions cannot be obtained simply by adding tourmaline powder to the material. Further, in Patent Document 2, although the generation of ions is promoted by using an ore containing rare earth elements in combination, the generation is not stable, and there is a negative aspect of radiating radiation, which is not necessarily safe. can not cut.

  A ceramic health device in which fine powder of natural radioactive element mineral is blended and sintered is also known (Patent Document 3). However, this is to use the hormesis effect caused by low-dose radiation, and there remains anxiety in terms of safety in that radiation is used directly as described above.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-46479 JP 2003-027720 A JP 2004-337559 A

  The present invention has been made in order to cope with such problems, and health and beauty equipment (hereinafter simply referred to as health) that can maintain and improve the health of the user and, consequently, the beauty by constantly generating ions stably. For the purpose of providing beauty equipment).

  In order to solve the above-mentioned object, as a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies on the risk of radiation generation and the conditions for sufficiently generating ions for the low radiation source built in the metal, A low-radiation source can be considered to have a very small amount of radiation if it is substantially metallized, and that ions are generated on the surface of the cosmetic device and the generation is sustained almost permanently. I found it. Therefore, by providing a low-radiation source powder with a metal coating, ions are always stably generated, thereby providing a health and beauty device capable of maintaining and improving the health of the user and, consequently, the beauty.

In the health beauty device of the present invention, since the low radiation source powder or a molded product thereof is metal-coated, the possibility that the radiation emitted from the low radiation source will adversely affect the human body is extremely low. On the other hand, the metal coating unexpectedly enhances the ion generation effect, and can provide a health promotion effect and a relaxation effect to the person using the health beauty instrument. The mechanism of action by which a radiation source is coated with a metal is not necessarily clear, but for example, an electric current is generated in the metal in some form, and this interacts with the radiation that passes through the metal. It is possible that However, the present invention is not limited by the above action mechanism.
Moreover, since the radiation source is metal-coated in the health beauty device of the present invention, the radiation source is less likely to leak or dissipate due to accidents or deterioration over time, and is safe for the environment.
