The doctor said in a video she read "I put socks on the bed, calm down I'm not weird": "Let's talk about people who wear socks in bed. Socks soaking warms your feet, and it improves blood circulation - which calms the body. When the body calms down, the brain says it "It's time to go to bed. So, in fact, people who put on socks in bed fall asleep faster."



Her explanation did not stop people from blaming her for the comments: "Did you forget to mention that people who wear socks in bed are probably serial killers," warned one and the other added: "I like nonsense, but socks in bed? You crossed the line."

And there is a scientific explanation

Socks in bed - this is also good for sex

Indeed, a study by the Dutch Institute of Neuroscience published in 2007 in the journal Physiology & Behavior, found that socks have a beneficial effect on anesthesia.

The researchers' theory is that heating the legs caused an opposite process of cooling the blood, which is carried out by dilating the blood vessels in the body and is called vasodilation.

Typically, the body temperature (which normally stands at about 37 degrees) drops to 35.8 degrees Celsius before bed.

The reason this happens is probably because it is the body's way of conserving energy during sleep.

This is also the reason why experts recommend maintaining a cool temperature in the bedroom and not overheating it, because heat in the bedroom impairs the quality of sleep.



And if that has not yet convinced you to put on socks you should go crazy that a study conducted at the Dutch University of Groningen in 2005 found that couples who wear socks in bed enjoy their sex lives more.

The conclusions of this study were also presented at a conference of the European Fertility Society in Copenhagen that year.

Thirteen couples participated in the study and it turned out that those of them who used to go to bed with socks enjoyed unnecessary orgasms compared to those who went to bed with bare feet.

The researchers noted that among the women who participated in the study, only 50 percent were able to reach orgasm without socks, compared to 80 percent success with socks.

The researchers hypothesized that one of the reasons for this difference was a negative reaction of the women to the touch of their partners' cold feet during sex, which was avoided by wearing the socks.



By the way, if you are wondering how and why such a study was born we are told that the effect of socks on sex life was not the purpose of the study, but a chance discovery.

The study originally dealt with the question of what happens to the brain during sexual intercourse.
