[kit_hung]

Now let's get it straight. Sleeping with socks is not just a fashion for the elderly. it's a very useful trick. When your feet get warm, your brain gets the signal "relax boss, it's time to sleep." But when you sleep with cold feet, your body becomes alert as if you're on patrol, and sleep is delayed.

For the pals of cold areas where the cold is like a sponsor, socks are a life saver. Those with cold feet, the elderly with reduced circulation, or anyone suffering from insomnia, socks help them enter sleep mode without drama. When your feet are warm, the body maintains a temperature balance throughout the night, there are no frequent awakenings.

But not everyone should sleep with socks. Those with diabetes problems that affect the feet, poor circulation, or skin infections, must be careful. Also, tight socks can choke blood, and dirty socks carry bacteria and fungus. So you have to be smart with your choice.

The best socks for sleeping are soft ones – cotton, bamboo, or light wool. They should not be tight around the ankles, and they should be very clean. You can also boost your game by taking a warm bath before bed, or placing a hot water bottle on your feet. Then sleep will come as smooth as a lullaby.
