LINEN SPOT:  Health Benefits of Wearing Linen

According to research studies I found online (although I wasn't able to find the original source/data), linen has been scientifically proven to have healing properties.  For example, linen is exclusively used in operating rooms and it is the only natural material utilized for internal sutures in a surgical setting.  When wearing 100% linen, many individuals have testified that their healing was rapid.  Post injury or surgical pain was substantially reduced (without the use of prescription or over the counter drugs) when using linen bandages and wearing linen clothing.

I've also heard of cancer patients being wrapped in linen as a treatment therapy.  Since linen has the highest energy vibration of any natural fabric, this makes perfect sense.  When your body is surrounded by linen fabric, you may notice its uplifting effect.

At the electronic cellular level, flax cells are highly complementary with human cells - producing a benevolent affect on the human organism.  The human cell is capable of completely dissolving a flax cell.  Scientists have discovered that linen fibers reflect light.  The light energy aspect of living organisms has been measured by many individuals within the scientific community.

Nobel prize winning Dr. Otto Heinrich Warburg identified signature frequency numbers of the average human at 70-90.  All results with numbers less than 50 were identified as the signature frequency of chronic disease.  Any number less than a 15 frequency was identified with those having been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, such as cancer.  The signature frequency measurement of linen fabric measures 5,000!

How do other fabrics compare?  Plant fibers like cotton and hemp are not healing materials when measuring their signature energy output.  Standard bleached and colored cotton measures only 40 units of energy.  Organic, unbleached cotton measures 100 units of energy, which is considered normal, but not a healing fiber.  Silk fabric only measures 10 units of energy, which would fail to support health in the human body.  Rayon measures at a 15 signature frequency.  Polyester, acrylic, spandex, lycra, viscose and nylon measure zero.  Pure wool measures 5,000 units of energy - same as linen, but I find wool irritating to my sensitive skin - like a Brillo Pad on me, unfortunately.

For any individual desiring to regain and maintain health, the best recommendation - dating all the way back to The Bible itself - is to wear linen.  The Biblical warning of wearing wool and linen together was also proven in scientific studies to be accurate: the energy of these two fabrics worn together (e.g., a wool sweater on top of a linen outfit) collapsed the electrical field.  While the two textiles both measure 5,000 signature frequencies individually, when put together, they cancelled each other out, and - in some cases - brought measureable weakness and even pain to the human body.
 
Additional health benefits of wearing linen apparel:

• Flax fabric is an excellent filter protecting against chemical exposure, noise and dust.
• Linen clothing reduces solar gamma radiation by almost half thereby protecting humans wearing linen.
• Flax fiber retrieved from contaminated soil appears to be totally resistant to harmful radiation.
• Linen underwear heightens positive emotions as well as possessing rare bacteriological properties. 
• Resistant to fungus and bacteria, flax is found to be an effective barrier to some diseases.
• According to Japanese researchers, studies have shown that bed-ridden patients do not develop bedsores where linen bed sheets are used.
• Wearing linen clothes helps to decrease some skin diseases - from common rashes to chronic eczemas.
• Linen is highly “hydroscopic” - meaning it rapidly absorbs and gives up moisture.  Absorbing water as quickly as a pond surface, before giving a feeling of being wet, linen cloth can absorb as much as 20% of its dry weight.  This explains why linen cloth always feels fresh and cool.
• Linen is not known to cause allergic reactions and is helpful in treating a number of allergic disorders.
• Linen is effective in dealing with inflammatory conditions, reducing fever, and providing a healthy air exchange.  Some neurological ailments benefit from the use of linen clothing.
• Linen cloth does not accumulate static electricity - even a small addition of flax fibers (up to 10%) to a cloth is enough to eliminate the static electricity effect.
• Linen possesses high air permeability and heat.  The heat conductivity of linen is 5 times higher than wool and 19 times than silk.  In hot weather, those dressed in linen clothing are found to have a lower skin temperature than others wearing silk or cotton garments.  According to some studies, a person wearing linen clothes perspires 1.5 times less than when dressed in cotton clothes, and twice less than when dressed in viscose clothes.  Meanwhile, in cold weather, linen works in reverse, proving ideal for retaining warmth.
• Silica present in the flax fiber protects linen against rotting.  The preserved mummies of Egyptian Pharaohs were wrapped in the finest linen cloth.  Linen resists dirt and doesn't develop a furry texture.  Linen can be laundered in hot water - it can even high temperatures when ironing and can even withstand boiling.
