{"product_id":"heat-guard-cooling-neck-ties","title":"Heat Guard Cooling Neck Ties","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Heat Guard is a tubular tie containing polymer crystals. For first time use or, when \u003cbr\u003edry, soak tie in lukewarm water for 20 - 30 minutes. The crystals absorb water, expanding\u003cbr\u003eto more than 400 times their original weight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis water is slowly released onto the fabric, keeping it cool through the natural process\u003cbr\u003eof evaporation. No refrigeration is necessary. The great absorption rate of the crystals \u003cbr\u003eallows for sufficient water storage to produce a continuous cooling effect for 1 full day.\u003cbr\u003ePersonalized Logo Ties\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTie may be hand washed and should be left to air dry when not in use. Do not leave wet \u003cbr\u003etie in sealed plastic bag as it will mildew over time. Tie can be re-soaked daily. Over\u003cbr\u003esoaking the tie could result in crystals leaking from stressed seams. Do not over\u003cbr\u003esoak. Life span is approximately 1 ½ -2 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Heat Guard works in conjunction with the body’s natural cooling system to help\u003cbr\u003ecool you faster and keep you cool longer. When worn around the neck, the tie cools the \u003cbr\u003eblood that is flowing through the carotid arteries to and from the brain. This cooled\u003cbr\u003eblood goes on to cool the rest of the body. When the body is cooled, both stress and\u003cbr\u003ethe heart rate are reduced, enabling one to achieve a better performance with less\u003cbr\u003eperceived effort. When body temperature is lowered, dehydration is reduced.\u003cbr\u003eWho uses The Heat Guard Cooling Tie? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll people who get too hot can benefit from using the Heat Guard Cooling Tie.
