Wearing Socks At Night May Improve Your Sleep!

Keeping those toes toasty can help regulate your core body temperature for more restful sleep, experts say.

Want to improve your chances for a good night’s sleep?

This idea could actually knock your socks ON, says behavioral sleep disorders specialist Michelle Drerup.

“It sounds counterintuitive, I know, but by wearing socks to bed and warming your feet, you may actually lower your core body temperature and fall asleep faster,” said Drerup.

Here’s how that happens.

“By making your feet warmer, you’re opening up blood vessels to help cool down the rest of the body,” Drerup said.

“So increasing the blood circulation to your feet results in a lower core temperature.” (CNN)
