Studies with mice which have been implanted with cancerous tumors and then exposed to an electrostatic field indicate that an electrostatic field can penetrate biological tissue and influence biological processes on a cellular level. The tumors of mice exposed to an electrostatic field grew faster than the tumors of control mice which where not exposed. Since electrostatic fields are encountered frequently by people, for example when fabrics in clothing rub together, the present invention provides a field-attenuating article which is placed in contact with the body in order to attenuate an electrostatic field before it impinges on a vulnerable portion of the body. Among the field-attenuating articles disclosed are a brassiere with breast cups made from cloth having conductive filaments, a brassiere insert made from foam rubber with conductive particles in it, undershorts and a body suit made from cloth with conductive filaments in it, and a band which is made from cloth with conductive filaments and which has structure for connecting the ends of the band to one another. Other field-attenuating articles that are disclosed include a disposable diaper having a plastic sheet with conductive material deposited on it, and a feminine napkin which likewise has a plastic sheet with conductive material on it.
