Why Is My Mattress So Hot

Certain mattress types retain a lot of heat, causing night sweats and restless nights.

A person's sleep temperature is determined by 4 factors:

• Temperature of the room
• Bedding
• Individual metabolism
• Mattress type

There are many ways to fix a hot mattress, such as:

• Investing in a cooling topper
• Purchasing cooling pillows
• Increasing air circulation

Note: These tips are only temporary fixes.

For a permanent solution, consider Loom & Leaf, one of the most comfortable Saatva mattresses. The gel-infused technology will keep you cool throughout the night.

A latex mattress is another permanent option.

We recommend the Zenhaven as it is made from sustainable materials and free of potentially harmful chemicals.

The Zenhaven regulates temperature organically without the use of gel or any other substance. It is designed to keep you comfortable and cool all night long.

During sleep, the body goes through different stages. After some time, the body loses its ability to sweat, causing the temperature to rise.

The following 5 tips will help keep you cool while sleeping:

• Choose a cooling topper that suits you.
• Get a cooling pillow.
• Wear the right clothes to reduce your body temperature.
• Choose a cooling mattress that is top-rated for comfort, support, and firmness. Our #1 recommendation is Saatva's Loom & Leaf. High-quality, breathable gel memory foam mattress that will keep you cool all night.

The dense material of memory foam makes it difficult to retain body heat.

Since memory foam is synthetic and non-breathable, it absorbs and reflects your body heat, gradually warming you up throughout the night.

Gel memory foam usually uses thermal gel, which is cool to the touch, or phase-changing gel, which turns into a liquid when the temperature rises.

With breathable gel-infused foam to keep you cool all night long, Saatva's Loom & Leaf gel memory foam mattress is our favorite pick.

Here are 6 tips for fixing a hot bed:

• Invest in a cooling mattress topper
• Try cooler pillows
• Cool your bedroom down
• Increase air circulation
• Swap to cotton bedding
• Adjust your clothing
