Sleep nude...here's why, scientifically.

than 10 percent of Americanssleep in the
nude.Whaat?!How is thisnumber so low? I sleep in
the nude every night. Not only
does it make me sleep better, experts swear sleeping naked is
actually goodfor you.
Take a look at the top reasons youshould ditch those pajamas
for good!
1. Help Air Things Out
Jennifer Landa, MD, author ofThe Sex Drive Solution
forWomen, says that sleeping naked can be healthier for your
private parts. While it's totally normal to have yeast and bacteria
down there, thewarm environment can sometimes cause an
overgrowth. One way to preventinfections is to air it out.
For men, it has also been found to increasefertility by
keeping the testes at adequate temperature and retaining
spermquality.
2. Keep You Sexy
According to naturopathic therapist Natasha Turner,
best-selling
author ofThe Hormone Diet, being toowarm at night
disrupts the release of your main anti-aging hormones into
yourbody. As your body temperature drops,growth
hormones are released and work their regenerative magic, she says.
Andthat keeps your skin and hair looking healthy and SEXY.3.
Promote Weight lossDr. Natasha Turner says that youcan reset
your fat loss hormones by sleeping naked! Sleeping naked can
helpmelt your fat because it helps your body to cool down. As
your body cools down,it releases fat-burning hormones. These
hormones also rebuild skin cells, bonecells, and muscle cells
as you sleep.4. Help You RELAXFeeling anxious or stressed?
GETNAKED! A hectic day can often prevent you from getting the
deep, quality sleepthat your body needs. However, sleeping
naked can ease tension and help promotea better sleep
quality. In fact, medical research has shown that sleeping
nakedis good for those suffering from insomnia.
The arguments are for sleeping COOL. Sleeping naked under a thick duvet can make you hot and destroy the magic. I sleep naked for comfort. I'm under a 6 tog duvet (quite thin) all year round. At age 71 I doubt I'll regain my youth or sex drive.
We have air conditioning in the modular home we rent, but wow, what an expense to run that thing. In the hot summer months we can simply sleep nude without any covers over us and a fan blowing over the bed and its great sleeping.
I must be a fresh air fiend or something. Even during the Winter months when our bedroom cap be pretty chilly, I start out on top of the covers. Usually I'll pull a blanket over myself sometime before morning arrives.
I also start on the top of the covers. My husband is always is annoyed as he would like to be cuddled to sleep. Usually I cave and cuddle. But I do like do wake up cool and pull some covers over me. Not sure how ppl can sleep w clothing. It's alien. Plus, the dry it out portion of the original message is true. My balls are always sticking to my legs! Letting them air out is healthy and sane. :)

Gotta agree Olly. Same situation for me although I'm still a youngster of only 69. lol Sleeping nude is just plain more comfortable although somehow during the night a think sheet winds up covering me sometimes. Not sure how that happens.
