Scientists have disproved the popular theory that sleeping in socks is good for your health
According to the Times of India online edition, there are at least five very reasonable reasons why this idea should be abandoned. The first is restless sleep. The socks squeeze the skin and stimulate the nerves, which causes general discomfort and makes it difficult to sink into the arms of Morpheus. In addition, many scientists claim that in order to fall asleep deeply, it is necessary to achieve the effect of lowering the temperature by sticking your feet out from under the blanket, and socks prevent this.

The second reason is that blood circulation may deteriorate due to the tight elastic of the socks, which can lead to the formation of blood clots. The third is an increased risk of developing a fungal nail infection due to the accumulation of moisture in the folds of the skin and a warm environment. The fourth reason is especially true if you wear synthetic socks - the aggravation of skin diseases. And the last one - experts assure that sleeping in socks can lead to an increase in body temperature and cause overheating, which will negatively affect the functioning of the body, since this parameter naturally decreases during a night's rest.
