Question:

Are Bamboo sheets superior to real Egyptian Cotton?

Ive been hearing a lot about Bamboo sheets lately; more breathable, better for the environment and softer than cotton.Is this all true?If so, do the same quot;thread countquot; rules apply to Bamboo?Can someone recommend a good brand to look at?Any other tips/recommendations are appreciated!

Answer:

That (along with pots and pans) was once a popular theoryThey have both since been discredited.
Yes it canI read about this from edgar cayce
yes it can but over timeIt also can cause kidney damage.
not any worse than baking cookies on an aluminum cookie sheet, or drinking a soda from a canif there was any truth to the rumor, we would all have Alzheimer's disease just be careful when wrapping aluminum foil around your headto stop the radio waves it has been know to make you crazy (or is it only crazy people where aluminum on their heads to keep out the radio waves??)
Bamboo yarn is considered naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic, and these same properties are incorporated into the fabric woven from this yarnFrom an environmental perspective, the bamboo plant is a sustainable resourceSheets woven from 100 percent bamboo are advertised as softer and cooler than those made of cotton, with the word organic often added to the descriptionHave handled knitting and crochet yarns which are bamboo or a blending of another fiber with bamboo, and the yarn is indeed softThread count of the weave is the same for bamboo sheets as for other sheeting material, with 300-350 thread count averageBe careful when shopping for bamboo sheets because there are other fiber blendings on the market presented as bamboo when they are actually bamboo and cotton or bamboo and rayon.
