@@FifaPro1001 I had trouble finding natural chemical free materials for bedding and ended up buying organic silk on Etsy and making my pillow cases, after switching to linen & silk bedding it is hard to switch back to cotton. I can make a video on it soon if you are interested in it how to make it
@@FifaPro1001 I will make a video then! :) Linen & Silk are game changing, silk sheets/pillow cases are expensive if you buy them online, why I ended up making my own
Yes! Please create a company for cotton, wool, linen, leather, etc, clothing, but don’t have everything be ridiculously expensive. Make it good quality stuff that most people can afford. I’m working on converting to wool clothes, but $85 for a t-shirt is so cost-prohibitive for most people, and so many of the wool clothing online also has nylon and spandex in it anyway.
High quality clothing is expensive but it lasts a long time and is reliable. Not all expensive clothes are high quality though, and you can actually save money by buying high quality expensive clothes in the long run
Everyone thought I was crazy for only wanting cotton clothes for my children. Actually organic cotton with no dyes. I also kept them from grains until they were two so their gut lining could form properly. This was mostly based in intuition. The funniest thing of all of that when I try to find similar articles to the ones I read that originally inspired me, I can't find any...🧐
That is incredible. Ive been on a similar journey, and have been trying to share about it recently here on UA-cam. Its quite lonely out there right now!
Most bed spreads are polyester. The outer fabric, the filling, and even the thread is polyester. Edit: same goes for pillows. 8-9 hours a day we bath in polyester.
@@lukasjoknys88 I've done that. But my favorite way to sleep without a bed is in an all cotton jungle hammock. 😄 Edit: seriously, the official US govt surplus hammock is all cotton.
Better go with ORGANIC cotton, since commercial cotton is sprayed with more pesticides than any other crop I know of. And peanuts are the only crop that can be planted the year after cotton due to all the pesticide residues. Now you can reason why all the peanut allergies shown up in the last 40 years. Peanuts were not an issue before that that I know of.
Yes… I think they are doing so and the main culprits are leggings worn too tightly and those ultra close fitting shape wear… intrinsically polyester is an absolutely awful material to wear regularly and or for long periods of time as it doesn’t let skin breath as it tends to hang onto the moisture your body naturally produces and this can then have an direct impact on ones hormones skin health and fertility… I do believe… cotton linen viscose and wool are the best materials to buy and wear… Thank you;)
Would totally support this brand. Have to be Regen-organic cotton. Glyphosate is a huge issue in cotton production. Patagonia and Outerknown are already building out these supply chains.
Go for it Paul, would love to see more products in this space. Interesting to note that I hear more people talking about this lately, so your thoughts are taking hold.
I have gone on a crazy cleaning spree. I have about 5 big bags of clothes with polyester, from my husband and I and also our toddler!!! There's no way I want this stuff touching my toddler's private parts. Thank you so much for bringing up this topic. On a side note, I ate my first piece of raw liver last week. I needed ZERO coffe that day, I also bought some testicles! I restarted cold showers today too. Thank you for your message and also to Liver king. I love what you guys are doing. Thank you for helping us better our health.
We did the same! Its crazy. Also digged up other items around our house that have this plastic in it! (see video on my channel). We need to raise awareness!
Please also look into mattresses ! Filled with toxic materials ! And their realise of VOCs bad for human health - I personally sleep on cotton mat on floor as works best for my muscles but would support an all wool mattresses for guests or when I feel like sleeping on bed.
I’ve been staying away from synthetics for a long time now, mainly because I find synthetic clothes less comfortable and they make me hotter, sweat more and have worse BO. Maybe this is why I got my wife pregnant so quickly every time we didn’t use protection (4 kids). I wish I could afford to have all wool clothes but cotton serves. Wool is incredible. Personally, unless your company could compete with other companies for inexpensive cotton clothes, I doubt I would buy from you.
My husband and I have unexplained infertility. I literally just purged my closet of any polyester and about 85% of my clothing is now in a donation bag for the good will. I had no idea I was wearing that much polyester.
We had the same issue. Until we changed things around. No more polyester, switched to a traditional diet. Less EMFs etc etc. I am trying to make content on this topic to raise awareness and help women with their fertility!
@@Elizabethvanderblank Do you have an update? My husband and I are going through something similar & have only recently changed his boxer briefs to all cotton.
@@AlyssaDerasp What would you want an update with? The polyester underwear- That is great your husband switched to cotton, that is a good first step, also for you as well. I noticed women's underwear is worse with the materials. Overall my favorite to switch has been to wool, it is great! I have a lot of research in my head (yet to make more videos!) If your update is in regards to fertility, I recently gave birth to a happy healthy son naturally at home, which I used herbs and diet to get pregnant and achieve this. Let me know so I can be of more help to you :)
@@Elizabethvanderblank you & your spouse had unexplained infertility but were able to become pregnant using natural herbs? Is there a way to PM to get more info?
Not far fetched at all. Magnetic and dielectric fields are at the core of cell functions. When you rub polyester clothing the potential is so great that you can see sparks (kilovolts).
Polyester may be affecting me. I recently did a fertility test and it didn’t show favorably. I wonder if this maybe contributes to hormones issues in my body. I’ve been cutting out some plastics with my drinking water and anywhere else I can, so we’ll see. There’s plastic in just about everything we use anymore. It’s so dang pervasive and annoying.
YES PAUL MAKE A NATURAL CLOTHING COMPANY PLEASE BROTHER THAT WILL BE GREAT I REALLY NEED SOME GOOD EVERYDAY CLOTHING THAT ISNT HARMING MY HEALTH IN ANYWAY
Performance wear made of natural materials would be awesome. Like underwear shorts etc. materials could range from so many things like cotton, silk, linen, bamboo etc
Who makes the all-wool mattress you use? I ditched all polyester and synth-blend clothing over a year ago. My skin stopped drying out and getting irritated almost instantly.
Use synthetic only for outer layers in cold, windy conditions, some 80(cotton)/20(synthetics) for hoodie can be ok. but wool and cotton is the way to go, also if rubber on your shoes or clothes smell bad - it's really toxic, better avoid that
That's the problem... natural materials (especially cotton) don't last anywhere near as long as synthetics, and they are not slightly more money - they are often twice the price (look into wool athletic wear, vs all of the standard synthetic garbage out there). It's going to take me a long time to replace my existing athletic clothing with wool, etc.
Yes, where is the non-polyester swimwear?! I havent seen it yet and ive been doing a lot of research. See some of the videos on my channel. We need this!
Im azoospermic, had 4 tests done over the year each 1 0 sperm. Had genetic tests done, mri, ultrasounds, gave up caffeine, gave up milk. Take no tablets and am a personal trainer, tried clomid, no change in sperm production. They cant find a cause. I dont wear boxers, just shorts as underwear the whole time. I basically wear shorts 24 hours a day, heard about a study about polyester strips in egypt which made 14 men temporarily azoospermic. Checked my shorts, 100% polyester. Ive been doing this for about 4-5 years. 3 days now i have being doing commando. I honestly hope this is the cause. Im giving it 6 months and in that time will aim to only wear cotton underwear or clothes below.
I’ve been searching all over for natural fabric maternity wear and in the U.K. it’s almost impossible to find! Same for kids clothes. I’m slowly (due to finances) switching from manmade to natural fabrics as I think it’s affected me my whole life with my hormones. I’m hormonally sensitive and am unable to use birth control, but the more I hear about manmade fabrics the more I feel like I need to move away from them.
My gf is second trimester. I have her wearing organic merino wool and organic cotton stuff. Plenty of online sources. I also have clothing in this and it's super comfy, albeit a little expensive. We've sold off our polyester clothing on poshmark and easily made the switch which is a big upgrade
Guys, I work at FedEx and trying to explain why I cannot wear polyester shirts, I got asking reaction and I said no,I will be wearing the cotton t shirts. I really do not understand how they could approve this poison. People should never ever wear this plastic. Thank you for this information, it is very important for all humanity.
I no longer know what to believe. What to wear. What to eat. What to breathe. What to consume. What's good for me. What's bad for me. What is killing my health. I'm so confused and lost.
If you want to protect yourself from polyester torn by springs in your mattress buy a waterproof 360 mattres protector (this will be plastic but also reduce a lot more plastic than will create and then put a cotton over sheet or two
Man!!! Thanks so much for this. I have been trying to research it all day…then I thought of you! Boom! Info is already available 🙏 I will be in Nosara in November Cotton shorts in-toe 🤙
If I remember correctly, Paul Chek covered this in his book How To Eat, Move and Be Healthy, which is over 20 years old now. If I remember correctly, it’s that you are absorbing phthalates through your skin, our skin is far more permeable than we have been lead to believe. If phthalates and other solvents leach into our foods that are contained in it, how is our sweat soaked skin any different? Cotton also needs to be washed a few times when new to wash the pesticides out of it.
Crazy how long this has been known already, and nobody does anything about it! I read the book "Killer Clothes" from about 12 years ago. Similar message, but super hidden. I collected my thoughts in a video on my channel, if you're interested
@@Elizabethvanderblank thanx! I checked it out and subscribed. I’m a self employed carpenter, I’m fortunate that a lot of garments for the trades are cotton, hemp and wool. I don’t even work with plastic for materials anymore and am now well stocked with gloves and masks when necessary. I tell my perspective clients that if you want it built well out of wood, I’m your guy, if you want it built out of Tupperware, there are a lot of guys to call out there that are not me.
@@sawdustadikt979 I wish we could find a carpenter like you! It is a challenge living in a historic home ,with, in my opinion some of the best wood work, finding people who share your mentality! It is frustrating, so many people give us the advice to swap out the wood for vinyl!
@@Elizabethvanderblank oh thank you! Ya, the “vinyl is final” is a big lie. I live in southern New England. It’s all old homes for the most part. When I get asked, I share my opinion that both wood and plastic siding have a life span, but out of the two, when wood gets replaced, and the old stuff goes into the dump, only wood will grow something in it when it breaks down. Also, old homes have proven that well maintained wood siding can last 50-100years. If your lucky vinyl siding will last 30 years at most. I love cedar shingle, it’s like an all day aromatherapy that I get paid to do.
@@sawdustadikt979 Where I live its mostly vinyl homes, so finding anyone with the know how to repair & mill our cedar siding(aromatherapy) has been near impossible. I have been told so many times how great the modern vinyl is, but it as you said, it doesn't last forever, and when you need to replace it you need to do it all, plus it ends up being tossed somewhere.. People just want the quick easy fix and do not seem to be thinking long term. I love having wood, if there is rot we can just fix that area and it has proven to work.
You are correct so this the other issue the cotton underwear is dyed with toxic chemicals and there are just maybe one or two companies that sell nontoxic boxers and briefs but cost like 50 dollars a pair
Maybe you could try linen or esp silk swimming shorts. Or cotton silk blends 🥰 that stuff is super comfy anyhow. Or wool silk blends. Wool is water resistant, so that might be good.
Or I wonder about bamboo. They say bamboo clothing is processed using bad chemicals but there is oeko-tek certified baby clothing so surely there's a way of processing it with fewer chemicals.
There is a study from 1992 proving that 14 men who wore a polyester sling became AZOOSPERMATIC within 140 days (reversible in 155 days) Quote: "Apparently the electrostatic field effect and the disordered thermoregulatory effect of the polyester sling produced azoospermia. In conclusion, the sling is a safe, acceptable, inexpensive, and reversible method of contraception in men."
Don't know about that, but I find polyester clothing makes me feel unwell, drained of energy. I buy 100% cotton where I can. Looking for winter coats that don't use polyester.
Agree! The only solution we came up with is fur. You can find a lot of fur at vintage shops for bargain prices. It breathes, is warm and is sustainable because 2nd hand!
Would love to know if you have any info on other garments or fabrics like elastan, modal, viscose, polyamide and if these have similar effects on hormones or health in general like the one that poliester. Much Love, Brother, You Rock! Karsten
Yes they do. I read a book called Killer Clothing. These are synthetic or semi-synthetic. In general for these kind of fabrics, the chemicals used in the extraction process are terrible for you and the environment. I speak about all of this in my video: ua-cam.com/video/_rqNNs-HZvI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ElizabethvanderBlank
Was checking ingredients on feminine products recently and noticed polyester in them. I hadn't seen this video yet, but not sticking polyester up your hoo-ha seems like a no-brainer. Wish I'd realized this years ago. Found some that claim to be 100% natural fibers.
I also went down this rabbit hole. Then discovered that there are numerous studies on children/infant clothing have high phthalate levels because cotton, while phthalate free, actually absorb MORE phthalates than synthetic fabrics. Because there are so many phthalates in the air, this can be a huge issue. Please investigate and let us know! Am I still safe wearing all cotton if washed frequently? Apparently frequent washing is essential with cotton.
Before the quick dry board shorts came out, I remember having a pair of Quicksilver cotton board short, velcro fly and metal button to lock them shut. They were pretty tight, I liked them.
cant imagine an instant short term switch youd notice any difference, because its just clothing, how bad can it be, but whats most worrying imo is potential long term effects. though probably best to not stress over it and listen to the experts. you can get stressed and go mad trying to optimise every little thing in your life, and such stress is probably doing more harm than anything youre trying to protect yourself against. and besides humans who are maybe either lucky or are healthy, can live to over 100, so hopefully we adults today have the possiblity to live to 100 granted we are healthy (exercise, eat well, sleep well, use your brain, seek enjoyment) despite any concerns of all the microplastics and that element in all of us since nuke testing
I won't wear any of that kind of stuff, all mine has to be cotton or linen or other such materials but it's expensive and a pain in the ass to find that's
That's why I'm here, everyone thinks I'm nuts. I used to suspect heat rash was the culprit. Then one day I wore sweatpants and broke out really bad. And checked the tag 60% cotton 40% polyester. Then I put on a pair of 100% cotton blue jeans. For a couple days and it stopped. And that's how I made the correlation.
You’re out in the sun every day getting tan as hell. My question is what do you put on your body to moisturize it to keep it soft, hydrated and not dried out but not toxic at the same time??

Also, old homes have proven that well maintained wood siding can last 50-100years. If your lucky vinyl siding will last 30 years at most. I love cedar shingle, it’s like an all day aromatherapy that I get paid to do.
@@sawdustadikt979 Where I live its mostly vinyl homes, so finding anyone with the know how to repair & mill our cedar siding(aromatherapy) has been near impossible. I have been told so many times how great the modern vinyl is, but it as you said, it doesn't last forever, and when you need to replace it you need to do it all, plus it ends up being tossed somewhere.. People just want the quick easy fix and do not seem to be thinking long term. I love having wood, if there is rot we can just fix that area and it has proven to work.
You are correct so this the other issue the cotton underwear is dyed with toxic chemicals and there are just maybe one or two companies that sell nontoxic boxers and briefs but cost like 50 dollars a pair
Maybe you could try linen or esp silk swimming shorts. Or cotton silk blends 🥰 that stuff is super comfy anyhow.
Or wool silk blends. Wool is water resistant, so that might be good.
Or I wonder about bamboo. They say bamboo clothing is processed using bad chemicals but there is oeko-tek certified baby clothing so surely there's a way of processing it with fewer chemicals.
There is a study from 1992 proving that 14 men who wore a polyester sling became AZOOSPERMATIC within 140 days (reversible in 155 days)
Quote: "Apparently the electrostatic field effect and the disordered thermoregulatory effect of the polyester sling produced azoospermia. In conclusion, the sling is a safe, acceptable, inexpensive, and reversible method of contraception in men."
I would buy cotton briefs, swim shorts, regular shorts and pillow cases from you. Or linen/wool/silk.
I think a wool and flax mix might make a nice swim fabric. Or possibly wool and silk
Don't know about that, but I find polyester clothing makes me feel unwell, drained of energy. I buy 100% cotton where I can. Looking for winter coats that don't use polyester.
Agree! The only solution we came up with is fur. You can find a lot of fur at vintage shops for bargain prices. It breathes, is warm and is sustainable because 2nd hand!
Would love to know if you have any info on other garments or fabrics like elastan, modal, viscose, polyamide and if these have similar effects on hormones or health in general like the one that poliester. Much Love, Brother, You Rock! Karsten
Yes they do. I read a book called Killer Clothing. These are synthetic or semi-synthetic. In general for these kind of fabrics, the chemicals used in the extraction process are terrible for you and the environment. I speak about all of this in my video: ua-cam.com/video/_rqNNs-HZvI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ElizabethvanderBlank
@@Elizabethvanderblank Nice Elizabeth! Very cool! Looking at your Video right now! Great Job! Will look for this book.
@@IntegralEarthling Let me know what you think!
Was checking ingredients on feminine products recently and noticed polyester in them. I hadn't seen this video yet, but not sticking polyester up your hoo-ha seems like a no-brainer. Wish I'd realized this years ago. Found some that claim to be 100% natural fibers.
Its crazy! We have to be so diligent. Its everywhere...! I have been trying to raise awareness through my channel, but its very lonely out there
lounge wear, regular shirts and shorts, underwear/boxers, yes I would buy it. Please make it affordable :)
yes sir when can we expect the all cotton line ? but also some good athletic clothes would be amazing like for running and weight training
Make that clothing company Paul! I would buy those products!
My problem is that I shafe when I use cotton so I went for polyester about 2 yrs ago. Then I heard something like this. In TikTok now I’m here!
I also went down this rabbit hole. Then discovered that there are numerous studies on children/infant clothing have high phthalate levels because cotton, while phthalate free, actually absorb MORE phthalates than synthetic fabrics. Because there are so many phthalates in the air, this can be a huge issue. Please investigate and let us know! Am I still safe wearing all cotton if washed frequently? Apparently frequent washing is essential with cotton.
YES, we need clean skincare and apparel lines available!!! if you build it, we will come ;)
Before the quick dry board shorts came out, I remember having a pair of Quicksilver cotton board short, velcro fly and metal button to lock them shut. They were pretty tight, I liked them.
The last line of the abstract mentions static electricity as a possible cause. Next up: "Are laundry dryers bullshit? (Yes!)"
You make videos about everything I think about!! 😄 love it
cant imagine an instant short term switch youd notice any difference, because its just clothing, how bad can it be, but whats most worrying imo is potential long term effects.
though probably best to not stress over it and listen to the experts. you can get stressed and go mad trying to optimise every little thing in your life, and such stress is probably doing more harm than anything youre trying to protect yourself against.
and besides humans who are maybe either lucky or are healthy, can live to over 100, so hopefully we adults today have the possiblity to live to 100 granted we are healthy (exercise, eat well, sleep well, use your brain, seek enjoyment) despite any concerns of all the microplastics and that element in all of us since nuke testing
I won't wear any of that kind of stuff, all mine has to be cotton or linen or other such materials but it's expensive and a pain in the ass to find that's
thank you for spreading the truth
I would buy it here in Australia! Natural clothing yes please!
Can we get organic cotton? All has been adulterated with chemical...
What about hemp clothing, does that also fall into the good category along with cotton / linen? Thanks
I wear cotton, wool, merino, linen. I have a bunch of polyester that is just sitting there
Organic cotton. However veggies are necessary...
I would totally buy from your clothing brand.
Everything is bad for us. Major blackpill it’s so hard to escape these chemicals and stuff
Well we need to replace slowly ....doesn't mean we go extreme....the world is in imbalance due to greed (profit over health and environment)....
Polyester gives me a rash for some reason.
yeah it irritates skin too
That's why I'm here, everyone thinks I'm nuts. I used to suspect heat rash was the culprit. Then one day I wore sweatpants and broke out really bad. And checked the tag 60% cotton 40% polyester. Then I put on a pair of 100% cotton blue jeans. For a couple days and it stopped. And that's how I made the correlation.
@@fadedjate7230yep same especially tight plastic clothing it irritates your skin for a long time and then your skin cools down
@unknown034-l7i It's like a plastic plague. It's everywhere now, I have to buy expensive hard to find clothes. Or thrift shop for stuff now.
What about 60% cotton/40% polyester
Definitely would love an all natural steamer / swim suit
Maybe this is why i have trouble gaining weight if my thyroid is constantly being affected. 90% of my clothing is 50/50 blend cotton polyester
Cotton & Silk 100% is the best option
I hate that my skin is so sensitive to wool and linen 😭 but I do wear mostly cotton.
Hi want to buy cotton clothes and say 90 % cotton 10 % polyester is IK to wear? Love your idea of cotton clothes l will buy them
Yes build a clothing line. 💞💞
Does anyone know what the best organic cotton sheets for bedding are and a mattress is natural latex and wool good enough
Love how he read 'bitches' as female dogs!
Can you make shorts with EMF blockers, I would buy!
Was there a control group of dogs wearing cotton underwear? If not then it is just due to wearing cloths.
Dude did you watch the video or follow along as Paul literally read the abstract out loud?
do polyester shirts affect hormones ?
Are there any studies on nylon?
You’re out in the sun every day getting tan as hell. My question is what do you put on your body to moisturize it to keep it soft, hydrated and not dried out but not toxic at the same time??
