Preshrunk cotton is less so, but in the long haul, shrinking is always a problem. But for purely health reasons, blends are not good because they sap energy and have toxins. So, it boils down to what your objectives are.
Well, if you follow https://www.whitehouse.gov/maha/ , shrinking isn't as much a problem with the weight loss possible. Start following their corrected food pyramid and cutting out all the processed food and sugary drinks. It takes a while to adjust to it, but I've easily dropped 15 pounds avoiding the garbage stuff as much as possible.
For those of us that could lose a few pounds, having clothes made of cotton that shrink after multiple washes would work out if we managed to maintain a diet that causes us to lose a few pounds.
I feel you now. That is why when I buy cotton, I buy it preshrunk cotton. - especially jeans. Over time it may shrink a little, but not as much as just regular cotton. I just don't over wash and dry my cottons. That way they last longer. If it's not dirty or smelly, I wear it again. I have cotton clothes I have had for years and they are still good. I hate it when you buy something and throw it in the wash and it comes out looking like it belongs to a child.
But I hear you fren. My problem is keeping weight on. I eat a good diet, not fast food, junk, or highly processed stuff. But, I can get so busy sometimes I don't eat. I have to remind myself. I don't have an overactive hunger drive. Been that way for years.

Not sure what food has to do with choosing fabric types. ????
