Sleep is essential to human body, as during the time of sleeping, the body undergoes regenerative processes that are essential to health and restoration.
However, the fact remains that many people struggle to obtain a good sleep at night without interrupting and awaking them from their slumber.
There may be something to the old advice that warming your feet can speed up your trip to dreamland.
Wearing socks during sleeping helps you to drift off easier than usual.
Heating cold feet causes vasodilation—dilation of the blood vessels—which may tell the brain that it is bedtime. After the blood vessels open in the hands and feet, heat is redistributed throughout the body to prepare for sleep.
Some research has indicated a correlation between the dilation in extremities (vasodilation) and the speed of falling asleep, meaning that increased dilation of the blood vessels in the feet will lead to you falling asleep quicker.
Also, when the body becomes hot, the system will try to cool the body to a comfortable temperature, which will in turn help you to get to sleep quicker.
When choosing the socks to wear for sleeping, pick a pair that is made from natural fibres, and not too thick.
