Dr. David Rosen, a member of the American Society of Sleep Medicine and a sleep expert, said that sleeping naked has great physical and mental benefits.
One of the advantages of naked sleep is the possibility of a good night's sleep.
Our bodies are controlled by circadian rhythms, which repeat heating and cooling patterns throughout the day. When you start to feel tired at the end of the day, melatonin production increases and core body temperature decreases, and this decline in body temperature continues throughout the night.
The optimal indoor temperature for sleep is about 19 to 21 degrees.
If you decide to sleep naked, make sure you have warm and comfortable bedding.
Sleeping naked may also help prevent Candida bacteria from thriving in the vagina. Excessive proliferation of Candida can cause inflammation of the mucous membrane of the vagina, causing pain and itching. Candida vaginitis is generally likely to occur due to tight underwear, leggings, stockings, and wearing underwear made of non-ventilated materials. Therefore, avoiding tight underwear while sleeping can help you maintain better quality health.
Men also wear tight underwear, which can increase the temperature of the scrotum and reduce sperm vitality and number.
In addition, naked sleep also helps improve affection relationships.
When the skin touches each other, oxytocin, known as the 'love' hormone, can be secreted.
Studies have shown that oxytocin not only reduces stress and depression, but also creates bonds, trust, and consideration for others.
In addition, the effects of naked sleep include improving skin health, improving blood circulation, and improving self-esteem.
There are a few things to observe for naked sleep.
Bedsheets need to be replaced or washed at least once a week and need warm bedding to help regulate body temperature.
It is also important to take a shower before going to bed.
