New York, New York, December 2011— With the flu season nearing its seasonal peak, the threat posed by the H1N1 virus and concern about contagion continues to remain high. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) advises those in the highest risk groups to get immunized. Moreover, they urge us to cover our nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, avoid touching eyes, nose or mouth to prevent the spread of contagion, wash hands often with soap and water and to try to avoid close contact with sick people.

Easier said than done.

With the launch of GetGlovd, a fashionable germ defense is at hand, literally. Constructed of 100% mechanically processed, naturally anti-bacterial, anti-microbial bamboo yarn, Get Glovd is more expensive to produce in clothing manufacturing than bamboo rayon. Consequently, the consumer finds many clothing products made using the cheaper alternative, bamboo rayon, which the FTC has declared to be no better than any other rayon. In contrast, the inherent qualities of mechanically processed bamboo yarn help stifle the spread of bacteria, viruses and other microbes from hands to mouth, eyes and nose — even after countless washings — as part of a patent-pending solution to the risks of public contamination.

(Earlier this year one of the Healthy Newspaper editors discovered another positive feature of this product:  After clipping a raised tile with her foot while walking across a large common, the fact she was wearing these gloves protected her hands from abrasions -- or worse.  She was still skinned up a bit, and both gloves were torn open, but the palms of her hands were untouched.)

Designed in three sizes to comfortably fit the hand, all Get Glovd products are lightweight with a luxurious silky feel, to fashionably protect while on the subway, bus, train, plane — everywhere you travel where germs are close at hand. In Japan, such concerns have induced a new product category, “subway gloves”, and GetGlovd now provides a high quality alternative for those desiring protection even after getting a flu shot.

Unlike wool, leather or synthetic gloves that provide an invisible breeding ground for germs to linger, multiply and spread, Get Glovd stifles nasty germs to check the spread of contagion. Get Glovd naturally anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, hypoallergenic 100% mechanically processed bamboo gloves are available through its web site at GetGlovd.com.

Visit GetGlovd.com and learn more about their eco-friendly, naturally anti-bacterial, anti-microbial products. The site also explains the distinction between the more commonly used bamboo rayon and our mechanically processed bamboo yarn that preserves the beneficial properties of bamboo fiber.

Developed by Lil Panettiere, a marketing and e-commerce professional at responsebydesign.com, and Dr. Thomas Pison, adjunct professor of journalism at Long Island University in Brooklyn, Getglovd.com introduces the benefits of mechanically processed bamboo used in all GetGlovd products continue to be researched, certified and laboratory tested locally to confirm its naturally anti-bacterial, anti-microbial properties in checking the spread of bacteria, viruses and other microbial contagion from hands to mouth, eyes and nose.
