Opinions anyone? Are they soft? Are they durable? Do they only come in blah institutional colors (drab green, greyish blue, greenish yellow?)

Has anyone seen bamboo fabric yet in clothing?

Pros and cons?

This stuff IMHO is great. It is soft and comfy. I haven't had any products long enough to know how well they hold up but for me this fiber is a winner for sheets and t-shirts.

I have noticed that sheets and blankets made with a cotton/bamboo blend are appearing everywhere all of a sudden.

I know nothing about them, but would love to hear.

I wondered if they would be soft too :lol:

I have a pair of mauve colored pillowcases made from bamboo. They are very soft. I think I've had them for over a year now. Wendy

I have some made from Birch that are the softest most wonderful sheets I've ever had!

What is the direction for laundering them? regular hot wash and cotton setting for dryer? Or do they have to be air dryed or partially dryed? I would imagine they are delicate setting (?)

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:
