\nI wash a lot of dishes, always with gloves. Last night my wife brought home two new pairs of them, since my last one had worn out.<\/p>\n
\nI examined both pairs, which were different brands. One says both “Natural Latex” and “Natural Rubber Latex”; the other, both “Latex” and “Natural Rubber Latex.”<\/p>\n
\nI’m not allergic to latex. Yet, I started to wonder: does allergy to latex mean allergy to natural rubber? If so, what are the alternatives for people who are allergic to latex?<\/p>\n
\nFrom my reading, it seems that allergy to latex means allergy to natural rubber as well.<\/p>\n
\nSome alternatives to latex gloves, it seems, are nitrile gloves, as well as vinyl.<\/p>\n
