Rachel McAdams, known for her roles in Mean Girls, The Notebook and The Family Stone, recently put forth a unique call to action to help the environment. McAdams would like for women around the world to make the switch to bamboo underwear. That’s right – changing your underwear can help change the world.
“A sexy green thing to do is to wear bamboo underwear! They sound quite painful but they’re actually quite soft,” says McAdams.
Indeed, bamboo fibre fabrics are incredibly soft against your skin. Most people are surprised to hear this considering that it’s a fabric made from a grass, but bamboo clothing is sinfully luxurious and is as sexy as silk against your bare skin. Bamboo also contains a natural agent called bamboo kun 
that helps keep the bamboo fabric odor free. Because of the structure of the bamboo fiber in its raw state, the bamboo fiber is incredibly absorbent and is a great wicking material. The unique attribute that makes this possible is that the individual fibers have cross sections filled with micro-holes and micro-gaps. Bamboo fabric is breathable and it is also thermo-regulating. No matter how hot and steamy you get, your bamboo undergarments will stay fresh.
If you struggle to find lingerie and clothing that won’t irritate your skin and distract you from more important matters, bamboo fabrics organic fiber properties make it naturally hypo-allergenic. It’s incredibly non-irritating to your skin.
And if you think smart is sexy, then this green trend is for you. Dazzle people with this knowledge:
- Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on this planet. It grows one third faster than the fastest growing hardwood tree. Some species grow as much as four feet a day.
- Bamboo is harvested and replenished with no impact to the environment. It can be selectively harvested annually and is capable of complete regeneration without need to replant.
- Bamboo is versatile with a short growth cycle. It can be harvested in 3-5 years versus 10-100 years for most softwoods and hardwoods.
- Bamboo is a critical element in the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Bamboo helps reduce the carbon dioxide gases blamed for global warming.
- Bamboo is a renewable resource for agroforestry production. It is used to produce flooring, wall paneling, pulp for paper, fencing, briquettes for fuel, raw material for housing, and more.
