Polyester: The Silent Saboteur of Hormonal Balance

The “miracle fabric” that’s quietly wrecking your health.

Polyester has been sold as a modern wonder: cheap, stretchy, durable.
The reality? One of the biggest health scams of the last century.

This plastic, made from petroleum, isn’t just a neutral fabric.
It’s a carrier of chemicals that seep into your sweat and slowly disrupt your hormones.

Why Polyester Is Dangerous

• Antimony – a toxic heavy metal used in PET production. It penetrates your skin and enters your bloodstream.

• Bisphenols & phthalates – known hormone disruptors. They leach from polyester into your sweat, interfering with thyroid, sex hormones, and metabolism.

• Microfibers & microplastics – every wear and wash releases thousands of particles you inhale or absorb through your skin.

The Long-Term Effect

• Fatigue

• Infertility

• Thyroid dysfunction

• Hormonal imbalance

Most people never connect these symptoms to “their T-shirt.”
But that’s exactly the point — slow sabotage, normalized by modern fashion.

The Radical but Simple Truth

You don’t want polyester on your skin for even an hour a day.
Every contact = a small dose of toxic cocktail.

The Alternative

Wear what has worked for thousands of years:

• Cotton

• Linen

• Hemp

• Wool

• Silk

Natural fibers breathe.
They don’t release petroleum byproducts into your body.
They don’t sabotage your hormones.

The Takeaway

The clothing industry sold you the illusion of comfort.
But real comfort isn’t cheap stretch and synthetic “performance wear.”

Real comfort is a healthy body and a clear mind.
And you’ll never find that wrapped in polyester.

Switch to natural

Polyester sabotages your health.
Your body deserves better than plastic.

Go replace polyester with cotton. Personally, I mainly wear Sol Dept.
