Does bed temperature affect sleep?

　　The bed temperature has an impact on sleep. The appropriate temperature can help you fall asleep quickly and improve sleep quality. The core body temperature of the human body will drop slightly when falling asleep. Keeping the bed temperature at 32-35°C is most suitable for this need. At this time, the skin feels warm and comfortable, and there is no need to expend energy to regulate body temperature, and you can quickly enter deep sleep. Excessive temperature can easily lead to sweating, dryness, and frequent turning over, which can interfere with sleep. ； If the temperature is too low, the body will curl up and the muscles will tense, which will prolong the time it takes to fall asleep.
