8 Reasons to sleep naked (for your skin, health and fitness levels)

Warmer weather is here, so what better time than to shed all those layers and sleep… naked. Yes, naked. Whaaaaaaaaaa… ? Not only is it super-sexy, experts swear naked sleep is actually good for you. We asked them to spill the top reasons you should ditch those pajamas.

Sleep naked for better skin
It’s only at night that our skin can heal and repair itself after a day spent battling pollution, stress, sun damage and the zillion toxins hurled at it from every side. To boost this process, skin cell regeneration almost doubles at night, collagen production is boosted and harmful free radicals are destroyed. But for all this to happen, skin needs to BREATH. Freeing it from cumbersome clothing gives your pores optimal access to rich oxygen, thereby boosting circulation and helping your skin regenerate.



Sleep naked for better sex
No, it’s not just about sliding between the sheets with nothing on… skin-to-skin contact boosts oxytocin, the ‘love hormone’, which makes you feel closer as a couple on the physical and emotional front.

Sleep naked for better health
Added bonus? Oxytocin is not just a feel-good hormone. It also counteracts stress and depression, reduces blood pressure, decreases the heart rate, improves gut motility and decreases intestinal inflammation.

Sleep naked to air out your vagina
According to women’s health experts, warm environments are the ideal breeding ground for infections – especially of the bacterial kind, which beset our privates. One way to counter this is by going commando at night, which airs out everything, thereby keeping moisture and infection at bay. And it’s not just women: for men, sleeping naked helps fertility by lowering the temperature down there.

Sleep naked to have a better night’s rest
Body temperature control is very crucial for a good night’s sleep. Lisa Shives, MD, who sits on the board of America’s National Sleeping Foundation, explains that our body temperature is supposed to go down progressively during the night, and being too warm can disrupt sleep. Therefore, skipping the nightwear will allow your body to gradually cool down, helping you sleep better.

Sleep naked to look hotter… even when the clothes go back on!
When we sleep, our body releases a growth hormone (HGH), which affects just about every cell in the body. This hormone is essential for burning fat, building muscle, maintaining bone density and ensuring healthy body composition. It also keeps your skin and hair looking awesome. Doctors warn that being too warm at night disrupts this anti-aging hormone, which means you will neither burn fat nor benefit from the nighttime repair of your skin, bones and muscles.

Sleep naked to lose belly fat
Studies have shown that sleeping in the nude is also a good way of controlling the stress hormone cortisol, keeping your energy and hunger levels in check. On the other hand, when sleep is disrupted, your cortisol will be too high, making you more likely to crave comfort foods – and more likely to overeat them.

Sleep naked to feel more confident
Once you are attuned into the sheer sensualness of your body on bare sheets and in the cool air, there is no going back. It’s sexy and feeling sexy about your own body increases confidence zillion-fold.

Do you sleep naked? Would you?
