 Many people know that linen material is good, but few people explain clearly what the benefits of linen material are. So today I will take you to understand the benefits of linen material.

Disease prevention: Linen clothes have high strength, good corrosion resistance, and are easy to absorb sweat and disperse moisture, so they are helpful in preventing the occurrence of some skin diseases, such as rashes and itchy skin. In addition, compared with cotton fabrics, linen clothes are wet-spun, without the burrs of dry spinning, and there is no itching when worn close to the body. Therefore, linen clothes are an ideal choice in hot summer.

Strong ability to absorb and dissipate moisture: During the humid rainy season, if the wall coverings, tablecloths, curtains and bed sheets in the living room are replaced with linen fabrics, the indoor humidity can be effectively reduced. In the dry autumn and winter seasons, if you use linen fabric, the room will not be too dry. Linen fabrics work well at keeping air humidity relatively constant.

Effectively reduce the harmful effects of magnetic fields on the human body: It has been reported that the bodies of staff on expeditions to the Antarctic are susceptible to the effects of strong magnetic fields. However, team members who wear linen clothes and use linen tents are in good physical condition and are very little affected.

Not prone to static electricity and dust absorption: linen fabrics are widely used in mattresses and surgical gowns in hospitals and nursing homes.

Dry: Linen can absorb 20% of its own weight in moisture, and can quickly release the absorbed moisture, keeping you dry no matter how much you sweat.

Cool: The heat dissipation performance of linen is 5 times that of wool and 19 times that of silk. In hot weather conditions, wearing linen clothing can make the skin surface temperature 3-4 degrees lower than wearing silk and cotton clothing.

Radiation protection: Wearing a pair of linen pants can greatly reduce the impact of radiation and reduce problems caused by radiation, such as the decrease in male sperm count caused by radiation.

Anti-static: Only 10% flax in the blended fabric is enough to prevent static electricity. It can effectively reduce the restlessness, headache, chest tightness, difficulty breathing and other problems caused by people in static electricity environment.

Reduces perspiration: Helps maintain body electrolyte balance. Studies have shown that linen clothing can reduce human perspiration by 1.5 times compared to wearing cotton clothing.

Anti-allergy: For people with skin allergies, linen clothing is undoubtedly a good news, because linen fabrics not only do not cause allergic reactions, but are helpful in treating some allergic diseases. Linen can reduce inflammation and prevent fever.

Inhibit bacteria: Flax has a good inhibitory effect on bacteria and fungi, and can effectively prevent some diseases. According to Japanese research, linen sheets can effectively prevent bedsores in long-term bedridden patients, and linen clothing can help prevent and treat certain skin diseases, such as common rashes and chronic eczema.
Ramie, a plant belonging to the Urticaceae family, also known as wild hemp, wild ramie, domestic hemp, ramie, green hemp, and white hemp, is one of the important fiber crops in ancient China. It originated in southwest China and was located in the Yangtze River in the Neolithic Age. There are already plantings in some places downstream.

When mentioning hemp, many people immediately feel itchy. The hemp feathers of flax can indeed sting people and cause skin itching, but ramie does not!

3. How about wearing ramie clothes in summer? Due to the large gaps in the ramie fiber structure, the capillary effect is significant and the efficiency of water absorption and moisture dissipation is high, so it is breathable and cool. In addition, compared with cotton fiber, ramie fiber is more than 7 times stronger than cotton fiber, has low extensibility, is relatively light, about 20% lighter than cotton, and is not afraid of insects and mold. Therefore, ramie is suitable for making summer clothes.
