Going Commando: 9 Health Benefits of Sleeping In The Nude

© Reader’s Digest

It is essential and beneficial to let your body breath at night. Our bodies perspire at night. We could be prone to sweat even more depending on the thickness of our sleepwear.

Dark, moist, and warm places are breeding grounds for bacteria. So your tight, cozy nightwear can actually be inviting infections and other things like body odor and acne! No one wants that.

You will probably never wear pajamas to bed again after learning all about the incredible health benefits of sleeping naked! But if you are still a little hesitant, you do not have to go at it cold turkey.

Try losing the undies, and hitting the sack in the nude once a week to start. You could also remove one piece of clothing or layer every evening until you are eventually sleeping in the nude! So go ahead and dare to bare. Just make sure you draw the curtains!
