Modular Detoxification Garment

Abstract

A modular detoxification garment includes an upper garment member having a shoulder supported portion and opposed sleeve members extending laterally away from the shoulder supported section and an upper torso section connected to and extending downwardly from the shoulder supported section terminating at a lower edge. The shoulder supported portion defines an opening through which the head of the wearer is selectively received. The detoxification garment includes a lower garment member having a waist section separated from the lower edge of the upper garment member and a pair of upper leg sections extending downwardly therefrom, the lower garment member being configured to selectively cover a lower torso and upper legs of the wearer. A temperature probe is situated proximate an inner layer of the upper garment member. A thermochromic material that is color responsive to temperature is situated on an outer layer of the upper garment member.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to exercise garments and, more particularly, to a detoxification garment that includes modular components that give a user many options of how much of his body is covered or exposed and indicates a relative temperature inside the garment.[0002]It is almost universally agreed that losing weight should include a balance of proper diet and exercise. With specific regard to exercise, it is also believed that burning calories through vigorous exercise and by losing water weight through sweating are keys to the exercise component for weight loss. Some people, however, choose to lose weight by inducing perspiration in a hot sauna rather than vigorously exercising.[0003]One disadvantage of the sauna approach to inducing sweating is that a sauna may not be readily available for use and may require a special trip to a gym or other exercise facility on a regular basis. Other people may seek to induce sweating through normal exercise while...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent is about a modular detoxification garment that is designed to be easy for users to put on and remove as desired. The garment is also attractive and in the form of a conventional exercise garment. The technical effects of this invention include the ability to provide a detoxification garment that is convenient and comfortable for users, allowing them to easily and effectively detoxify their body.

Problems solved by technology

Some people, however, choose to lose weight by inducing perspiration in a hot sauna rather than vigorously exercising.

One disadvantage of the sauna approach to inducing sweating is that a sauna may not be readily available for use and may require a special trip to a gym or other exercise facility on a regular basis.

Although wearing sweat pants or a sweatshirt may eventually induce sweating, the sweating may not be nearly as thorough, consistent, or long lasting as may be obtained in an actual sauna.

In addition, wearing traditional sweats may be difficult to slide on and off in order to stay comfortable and may not be as effective to induce sufficient perspiration to lose weight quickly.

In addition, true detoxification suits that induce high temperatures for maximum sweat induction may, in fact, cause dangerously high heat levels.
