Normal healthy people have a signature frequency around 100- 110 MHz.
Ill and Fatally ill people have a signature frequency of 30 MHZ and less, down to close to zero .
Cotton has a signature frequency around 100-110 MHz
Linen has a signature frequency of 5,000 MHz Wool/ Woollen (and every sibling like cashmere, alpaca, merino etc) also has a signature frequency of 5,000 Mhz
A blend of Linen and woollen has a fignature frequency of 00.00 Mhz... because they rotate in opposite directions, and thus cancel each other.
Synthetic clothing such as Nylon, Rayon, Spandex, Polyester, and other have a signature frequency of between Zero and 30 Mhz.
I know fashion marketing people are saying that you should avoid blend with synthetic over 20%, so i often hear no more than 20% synthetic in the past year...but this is wrong to "an atomic level" for our body
I would say, if you want something that has synthetic in it, dont go over 9-10% especially if its directly in contact with your skin/body

To an atomic level what you just wrote doesn't make any sense.

around 99 percent of our body is made up of atoms of hydrogen and carbon 'nitrogen and oxy..here is how skin react to synthetics on longer period of time. majority doesnt know, and the marketing in 2024 is out of place and out of control with chose synthetics because are cheaper

As much as I love the feel of heavy knits, I feel like they'd be too warm for wearing in my apartment and/or office.

Modern heating is too simply intense in the colder months - on public transport, in the office, at restaurants or bars - these spaces are no longer conducive to cashmere knitwear, which is probably a good thing to keep general demand at bay, as overproduction has been a problem for years.

Last winter I made the mistake of layering a merino rollneck under tailoring to the office: 🥵 never again. In the Summer suits are comfortably worn for work since they blast the AC indoors. At home the fine gauge 1- or 2-ply get the most cost per wear, especially in the colder months. We never turn the heat on, so the house maintains a constant temperature of 50 to 60 degrees, perfect for baby cashmere.

Chunky knits are only for strolls or outdoor errands

Yes, I regularly have to take off my coat in the subway due to how hot it gets, especially when it's crowded (basically any peak commute hour - downside of living in the NYC metro area, or any major metro area in the world, I suppose).

In the office I can still wear a cashmere turtleneck (thin 1/2-ply) under a light/medium weight sport coat, but generally I'm pretty bad with cold so that's probably why. I always jokingly say that I run hot in the summer and cold in the winter.

At home my apartment has central heating, the in-unit control is basically just off/on, which is good for my wallet as it's included in the rent, bad because of the lack of fine control. During the transitional weather (May and October) they often get either way too warm or way too cold.
