Sleeping with pets

Pets are adorable, but they can be unhygienic and can wake you up in the middle of the night. A 2011 study by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that sleeping with dogs and cats increases the risk of contracting plague, rabies, and parasitic infections.

Children and people with weakened immune systems should not sleep with animals.

Using the phone

The blue light from screens suppresses the production of melatonin, the chemical that helps people sleep. That’s why electronic devices can ruin your rest. Stop using your phone, computer, or tablet at least an hour before bed, and leave work outside the bedroom.

Messy

Many women have the habit of putting their handbags or taking things out of their handbags on the bed without realizing that the bag they carry every day is 4 times dirtier than a toilet seat. This will cause the blanket and sheets to be full of bacteria.

Wear underwear

Women who wear underwear to bed will create conditions for bacteria and fungi to grow and increase the risk of infection. For men, a 2015 study by Stanford University proved that sleeping without underwear helps increase sperm quality by 25%.

sleep in

Sleeping in causes your body to confuse the state of being awake and sleeping, and your biological clock is disrupted. That is why the more you sleep in, the more tired you become. The advice for you is to wake up as soon as you hear the alarm.
