Why HoloFiber?
A double blind clinical study recently proved that the effects of Celliant™ (formerly known as HoloFiber) to be compelling and significant. The results of Dr. Lavery's study, using products made with Celliant™ and controlled non-Celliant™ products, indicate measurably increased oxygen levels observed and recorded in the body and blood in subjects wearing the Celliant™ products. This testing demonstrated that there was a "Statistically significant change in transcutaneous oxygen - or the oxygen delivery to the skin - in hands and feet, on subjects wearing Celliant™ gloves and socks compared to those wearing comparable non-Celliant™ gloves and socks."
"The significant changes observed are very compelling for this type of product. An 8 to 12% improvement in skin oxygenation could increase marginal circulation enough to improve wound-healing or eliminate ischemic (localized tissue anemia due to obstruction of the inflow of arterial blood) pain of the legs," observed Dr. Lavery.
Following these findings, another double-blind study, conducted by Graham McClue PhD., with Dr. Lavery, was commissioned to determine if this fiber could produce the same results in non-compromised, or healthy, subjects. In both studies, Celliant™ (formerly known as HoloFiber) increased oxygen levels in both diabetic and non-challenged subjects by as much as 29.97%. Wearing Celliant™ textiles and placebo textiles, oxygen levels on the forearm and foot of the healthy population were observed to increase in the test – 29.97% in the forearm, and 10.18% in the foot.
