Naked sleep makes heatwaves feel hotter

Naked sleep makes heatwaves feel hotter

It might seem logical to strip off, but experts say sleeping naked can actually make you feel warmer during a heatwave.

Wearing light, breathable pyjamas or thin cotton sheets helps wick away moisture, aiding your body's natural cooling.
