Is sleeping naked beneficial or not?
Many specialist voices have been raised for years arguing that it is healthy for the skin, that it reduces stress and even that it helps to ignite the spark for sex.
However, beyond the numerous arguments, doctor
Anthony Youn
wants to end the dilemma with an explanatory viral video to banish the idea.
The 49-year-old American doctor of Korean origin created a real scandal on his TikTok account with a video that already
exceeds 11 million views
and has added countless comments.
For Youn you don't have to sleep naked
Known as
@tonyyounmd
on the video sharing platform, the healthcare professional regularly shares informative content on, for example, "how to reverse sun damage" and "body tricks that really work."
For the specialist to sleep naked, it is unhygienic.
But it was his claims about how
unhygienic
sleeping naked is that made his video viral, as many stand in the opposite stance.
Youn, an
advocate for holistic plastic surgery and non-invasive self-care practices
, states that you shouldn't sleep naked because the average person
"has flatulence between 15 and 25 times a day
.
"
"This can happen while you sleep and a scientific study showed that every time you expel gases you are spraying a
small amount of fecal matter
," he develops.
Anthony Youn is an advocate for holistic plastic surgery and non-invasive self-care practices.
And it says: "The same study shows that tight underwear will trap all these particles. So for the sake of your partner, sleep with your underwear on."
About women, boys and sheets
Beyond his statements and the controversy generated, Youn took the opportunity to clarify one of the comments.
"For women,
if your gynecologist tells you to sleep without underwear, listen to him,
" she confides.
With regard to boys, it runs the same fate as for adults.
Although with a clarification: "That the boys put the tight underwear before going to bed!".
"For the sake of your partner or bedmate, sleep with your underwear on," says the doctor.
In a final attempt to convey his warning, the doctor urged "to change your underwear every day,
wash your sheets regularly
and never throw a gas in someone's face."
Viral video with more than 11 million views
Since the video was posted on TikTok, it has accumulated more than 11 million views and is on its way to 800,000 likes.
Unsurprisingly, it also garnered
thousands of user comments
, many of whom were taken aback by the news and were quick to disagree.
Doctor Anthony Youn basically targets gas and fecal matter.
"He may be right, but I have difficulty falling asleep and with clothes things get worse," said one user.
Another added: “Until recently it was benefits, now it seems not.
It all depends on the person".
Of course, there were those who took it with humor.
One person joked: "Flatulence 15 to 25 times a day? At least I'm a winner and I beat the average in one area."
While another launched: "I do not want to sacrifice, I prefer to sleep alone for the rest of my life."
