10 MYTHS ABOUT SILK SHEETS: DEBUNKED


MYTH #1: Silk sheets are slippery. While it is true that silk sheets have less friction than your run-of-the mill cotton sheets, you will not slip off of silk sheets. This myth is spread because silk sheets are often mistaken for impostor satin "silks" that are made from polyester. These polyester satin "silks" can be very slippery, while real silk sheets actually have a very soft feel to them.

MYTH #2: Silk sheets require dry cleaning. Good quality silk sheets can be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cold water and do not require dry cleaning, as long as a silk-friendly detergent is used. As you continue to wash silk sheets, they will lose some of their luster, but will actually become softer after a few washes. In fact, many people find that they like their silk sheets even more after they have been washed a few times.

MYTH #3: Silk sheets will shrink when washed. High-quality silk sheets that are cared for correctly will not shrink when washed. If your sheets fit your bed correctly before washing, they will still fit the same after washing.

MYTH #4: All silk sheets are the same. There are a variety of silk sheets on the market today, and it can sometimes be difficult to compare sheets because many manufactures do not provide all the information needed to make an informed decision.

For starters, the momme weight of the silk sheet can range from 6 – 30mm. This is used as the main means to measure the quality of the silk (similar to thread count, which is often used with other textiles, like cotton). Ideal weights for silk sheets fall between 16 – 21mm with many believing 19mm provides the best balance of strength, look and affordability. If a manufacture does not tell you the momme weight of their sheets, you should look elsewhere.

In addition to momme weight, there are also different types of silk used in silk sheets. These included Charmeuse Silk, Tussah Silk, and Habotai Silk (often called China Silk). Charmeuse Silk and Habotai silk are produced from the mulberry silk worm breed in captivity. They differ in feel and luster, with Charmeuse silk having a high luster and less friction, and Habotai silk having a sandy matte finish. Tussah silk is produced from wild silk worms and is generally considered to be of lower quality. Tussah Silk usually requires bleaching to reduce visual impurities from the fabrics finish and will often have knots in the texture due to broken silk fibers.

MYTH #5: Silk sheets will catch my skin. This is another case of mistaken identity. Satin “silk” from polyester (a man-made fabric) is very slippery and yet will catch your skin if your hands are very rough and callused. However, 100% pure silk sheets will not catch your skin the way polyester "silk" does. It is softer in texture and very smooth to the touch.

MYTH #6: Silk sheets are expensive. It is true that silk is one of the more expensive fabrics on the market, however, the benefits of sleeping on silk sheets make it more of an investment in your long-term health and well being. When viewed as a long-term investment, silk sheets are actually rather affordable; the benefits will last over many years.

MYTH #7: Silk sheets are chemically processed. While it is possible that some cheaper silk sheets may be bleached, good quality silk sheets, such as LovaSilk sheets, are naturally white and do not require bleaching. In addition, silk production does not require pesticides, herbicides or other harmful chemicals often found in some textiles. This is because mulberry silk is made from silk worms raised in captivity in temperature-controlled environments that are free from predators. This is one reason silk is a better choice for those hoping to minimize their chemical exposure.

MYTH #8: Silk sheets are a modern-day invention. In fact, silk from the mulberry silk worm in China has been cultivated for over 5,000 years. Initially silk was so expensive and difficult to produce, only the emperors and their closest family members were able to afford it. Eventually silk production increased and became a major currency in trade between the East and West, creating what is referred to as the Silk Road. Today, silk is much more affordable than in the past and is now within the reach of many Americans.

MYTH #9: Silk is inexpensive to produce. There is good reason silk costs a little more than your average set of sheets. Silk production requires thousands of silk cocoons to be unrivaled and spun into silk thread or yarn. Between 3,000 – 5,000 cocoons are used, on average, to produce one pound of silk. To produce a single LovaSilk Fitted King Sheet requires around 5,000 cocoons!

MYTH #10: Silk is a delicate fabric and won’t last long. While silk does require some care, it is a strong fabric for its weight. In fact, its strength-to-weight ratio made it the primary fabric used in parachutes before the invention of nylon. This delicacy myth is propagated because silk is often used in lingerie or woman’s dresses in a lightweight, such as 6, 8, or 10 mm. A heavier weight quality silk around 19mm or more will give you many years of use with proper care.

Why optimism may help you live longer


We all like to feel needed. But new research suggests having a sense of purpose is good for our health, too.  
In a study of 7,000 people, those with the strongest sense of direction in life were over 70 per cent less likely to suffer a stroke.
The researchers accounted for other aggravating factors such as blood pressure and alcohol use and believe the effect comes through regulating the immune system.

‘Maintaining a purpose in life not only increases quality of life but may improve physical health and increase longevity,’ says clinical psychologist Eric Kim, who led the study at the University of Michigan.
More than 150,000 people have a stroke each year in the UK.

But while past research focused on the detrimental effects of negative psychological traits, such as depression and anxiety, new research is investigating how positive traits, such as optimism, protect against illness.
In the recent study, men and women aged 50 and over were tracked for four to five years and completed psychological tests while researchers recorded strokes. 
The results show that the higher someone’s sense of purpose, the lower their risk of a stroke.
Those with the greatest sense of purpose were 73 per cent less likely to suffer a stroke compared to those with the lowest. 
Other research has shown that positive mood can lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol, also implicated in stroke.
‘This is significant as we have an ageing population and it helps show what behaviours inoculate people from getting ill,’ says Cary Cooper, professor of health psychology at Lancaster University. 
‘Maybe retirement is not good for some.’
