  • 6 reasons to sleep nude

    http://shine.yahoo.com/healthy-livin...221500649.html..and the accompanying photo to the story.



    A recent study showed that less than 10 percent of Americans sleep in the buff. Whaa? Not only is it dead sexy, experts swear naked sleep is actually good for you. We asked them to spill on the top reasons you should ditch those pajamas for good.

    By Natasha Burton

    1. You'll Air Out Your Hoo-Ha
    Jennifer Landa, MD, author of The Sex Drive Solution for Women, says that sleeping naked can be healthier for your private parts. While it's totally normal to have yeast and bacteria down there, the warm environment can sometimes cause an overgrowth. One way to prevent infections is to "air it out" and go commando.

    2. You'll Sleep Better
    While you might like being cozy and warm at night, it's actually important to have a cooler environment when you sleep, says Lisa Shives, MD, who sits on the National Sleep Foundation's board of directors. "Your body temp progressively declines as you sleep, which is a natural tendency of the body, so being too warm with heavy PJs and blankets can disrupt that." Sleeping naked, she says, can help your body stay cool.

    3. You'll Look Hotter
    According to naturopath Natasha Turner, best-selling author of The Hormone Diet, being too warm at night disrupts the release of melatonin and growth hormone-your main anti-aging hormones-into your body. "As your body temperature drops, growth hormone is released and works its regenerative magic," she says. And that keeps your skin and hair looking awesome.

    4. You'll Lose Belly Fat
    Sleeping naked helps you sleep more soundly, which will allow your levels of the stress hormone cortisol to decrease as you rest, keeping your energy and hunger levels in check, Turner says. When your sleep is disrupted, your cortisol will be too high when your alarm goes off, making you more likely to wake up hungry for comfort foods-and more likely to overeat them.

    5. You'll Feel More Confident
    Sleeping naked feels great, Landa says. "We can tune in to sensations like the feeling of the sheets and the coolness of the air, which can be very sexy" she says. "And feeling sexy increases confidence."

    6. You'll Have Better Sex
    Landa says that sleeping naked is great for your relationship because laying skin to skin will increase feel-good chemicals like the cuddle hormone oxytocin. "Sleeping naked encourages sexier relationships," she says. You'll feel more relaxed and be more in the mood for intimacy.

      Possibly the dumbest thing I've ever read. I sleep so poorly when in the nude. My balls must be contained and not slapping/falling all over my thighs when I turn over. I hate that feeling--like I'm going to mash one in my sleep or cut off the blood flow. Fuck that.

        Same here. I don't need my dick rolling off the side of the bed and hitting my dog on the snout. I snap on some whitey tighties and call it a night!

                  That actually happened in the first apartment I live in up here, lol..
                  The dumbass next door decided to light his shit up at 2:00 am, I hear someone banging on the door, so I grab a gun and haul ass out there, yank the door open and it's the lady downstrairs telling me to hurry out because the building is on fire.

                    Fire, those annoying 3 am knocks on your door, burglars, and crushing your boys when you roll over between your leg and the mattress. Screw that. Boxer briefs.

                      I keep a full thing of clothes by my bedside at all times. A small B.O.B. if you will.

                              All of these apply to sleeping in just undies or boxers, as opposed to a nightgown or whatever, with the exception of airing out the hoo haa. You don't have to be full on comando to reap the benefits mentioned in the article. The #1 benefit would be in showing said article to a SO.
