Why not sleep naked when the heat is high

When we sleep naked, sweat accumulates on the body and stays there, which is not good, because during the night your body temperature will certainly decrease, and sweat will cool you down too much, says a doctor from the clinic "Bupas Cromwell".

Although the benefits of sleeping without clothes are often listed, sleep expert from the British clinic "Bupas Cromwell", Dr. Julius Patrick says that in high heat it is not recommended to sleep naked because at night our body temperature drops no matter how and be warm outside.

"When you sleep naked, sweat collects on the body and stays there, which is not good because at night the body temperature will drop significantly and the sweat will cool you down too much," said Dr. Patrick, who advises to sleep in pajamas and nightgowns made of light and transparent materials, which will absorb sweat from the body.

Another way to keep us warm on hot nights, he says, is to keep the blinds down and draw the curtains in the bedroom all day so that light and heat do not enter.

- If your room is warmer than outside, do not keep the windows open all day, but open them before going to bed - he suggests.

He also adds, remove quilts and heavy, thick blankets and blankets from the bed, leaving only the cotton sheet or light cotton blanket.

- Thin cotton blankets absorb sweat, so it is better to have them with you - he said, and for better sleep in high heat, he recommends taking a shower half an hour before bedtime.

- Not necessarily, as many think, take a shower with cold water to cool down; even a hot shower or bath helps, "It also lowers our core temperature," he told Cosmopolitan.
