It’s one thing to have a warm and cozy night sleep and another to be tossing and turning all night because you are overheated. Being overwhelmed by warmth when you are trying to rest can lead to many negative outcomes, the main one being insomnia.
Mattress toppers add a layer of breathable material between you and your mattress giving you a cooler sleep.
There are a number of reasons why one may become too hot while they sleep. It is important to know the causes because knowing can help you reverse the problem and cool you down. Consider the following:
- Wearing too many clothes to bed or pajamas made of material that traps in heat, such as flannel or fleece, etc.
- Wearing socks
- Too many covers
- Room is too warm
- Hot flashes
- Mattress is trapping in heat
Of all the above possibilities, the one that most people tend to overlook and is often a major contributing factor, is the mattress. The vast majority of mattresses and top covers are designed with materials to hold on to heat to keep your body warm. While this may be ideal in cooler climates, it can certainly have its disadvantages. Therefore, if you find you are having difficult sleeping because you are too hot, it might be time for you to invest in a proper mattress cover for a cooler sleep.
One of the best mattress toppers you can use for a cooler sleep is made of space-age memory foam. This type of mattress topper provides a cooler sleep surface because the memory foam does not disperse heat, creating a cooler sleep surface. Furthermore, while there are different types of memory foam pads, many of them are designed with open-cell technology, which allows for breathability.
There are other mattress toppers you can obtain that are made from 100% cotton, wool or hypoallergenic polyester fiberfill that can also help you find peace from night sweats, hot flashes or just overheating. This is because they work to regulate your body temperature throughout the night, providing the perfect temperature.
Basically, if you want to find a mattress topper that will protect you from waking up sweating and feeling like you spent the night in a sauna, you will want to be sure to find a topper or a pillow-top mattress that has been created to keep you cool and cozy. In addition, be sure to try out the pad or topper before you make any final decisions. After all, while it is important to maintain ideal temperature during sleep it is also imperative that you are receiving the proper comfort and support for you body.
