Do you also prefer to sleep with the heating on high and wrapped in eight layers of clothing? Do you often sleep poorly? There’s a good chance that this is related. Researchers from the American National Institute of Health have discovered that sleeping in a cold bedroom has many benefits.
Sleep problems
When you are hot, this often makes you restless. In a colder bedroom, on the other hand, there is a good chance that you will get a better night’s sleep. High body temperatures are also associated with chronic sleep problems, so it might be wise to turn down the heater a few degrees tonight!
Burn more calories
When it is colder, your metabolism works better. Because it is colder, your body needs more energy to maintain its temperature. This automatically burns more calories. Losing weight while sleeping, we like!
Our concentration seems to be best at a temperature of 16.6 degrees. The cold not only helps you sleep better, but you will also work better. But do we really think this is the ideal perceived temperature?
Anti-aging
Because your body cools down, more hormones are pumped through your body. These hormones also include the anti-aging hormone. So ehh… In addition to losing weight while sleeping, also stay young while sleeping? We’ll sleep in the refrigerator tonight.
What do you think? Do you also prefer to sleep in a cold bedroom or is it not warm enough for you?
