In the vibrant world of fashion and comfort, not all fabrics are created equal. As we embrace the textures that touch our skin daily, it's crucial to make informed choices about the clothes we wear. Polyester, a widely used petroleum fabric, has been a staple in wardrobes for decades, valued for its durability and ease of care. However, emerging research suggests that the convenience of polyester comes at a considerable cost to our health and environment. Today, let's explore why it's time to say goodbye to wearing plastic and switch to healthier alternatives like Hadobody's micromodal fabric, which promises not only a silky smooth texture but also a commitment to your well-being.

The Perils of Polyester

Polyester is a synthetic fiber derived from petroleum, and it is known for its resilience and resistance to wrinkles and shrinking. However, beneath its convenient surface lie risks that could affect your health. One of the significant issues is the release of microplastics. Every time we wash synthetic garments, tiny plastic fibers—smaller than five millimeters—escape into the water, evading filtration systems and ending up in our oceans and food supply. These microplastics are more than just an environmental hazard; they pose a risk to our health when ingested or inhaled.

Moreover, the chemicals used in the manufacturing of polyester can disrupt our hormonal balance. Studies have linked exposure to these chemicals with altered testosterone levels and other hormone-related issues. The impact on your hormones is subtle yet significant, affecting everything from mood to metabolism.

Microplastics and You: A Closer Look

When you choose to wear polyester, you may not realize that you are essentially wearing plastic. Microplastics shed from these clothes can find their way into your body through the air, water, and food. Once inside, they can accumulate and contribute to health problems. The potential for these tiny particles to carry toxins that disrupt your hormonal and reproductive systems is a growing concern in the scientific community.

Micromodal: The Gentle Alternative

Enter micromodal, a fabric made from the cellulose of beech trees, which is not only renewable but also biodegradable. Unlike its synthetic counterparts, micromodal offers a silky smooth texture that is 4x softer than cotton, making it an absolute pleasure to wear. Its natural fibers are breathable and moisture-wicking, which means they can help regulate your temperature and keep sweat stains at bay—perfect for synthetic yoga wear alternatives. Derived from nature, all LENZING™ standard Lyocell and Modal fiber types have been certified as compostable and biodegradable under industrial, home, soil and marine conditions, thus they can fully revert back to nature.
