If you&nbsp;tend to sleep cold, then you know how hard it is for your body to relax and fall into a restful sleep when its main concern is to keep itself warm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hear of people sleeping too hot all the time, but in fact,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.gallup.com\/poll\/506201\/sleep-temperature-linked-overall-sleep-quality-wellbeing.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">37% of Americans report<\/a>&nbsp;at least occasionally being too cold at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various reasons for feeling too cold at night. Some people have circulation problems due to a medical condition and others just feel cold most of the time for no particular reason. Whatever the case, there are ways to solve this problem. And your mattress can be a part of the solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that different materials in your mattress can affect your body temperature in different ways? If you\u2019re in the market for a new mattress and being too cold at night is an issue for you, then read on to find out what makes the best mattress for cold sleepers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-mattress-for-cold-sleepers\">The best mattress for cold sleepers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What do you want your mattress to be made of if you tend to sleep cold?&nbsp;Some materials&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/why-do-mattresses-sleep-hot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">naturally sleep hot<\/a>, and those are the ones you should consider in your mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best mattresses for cold sleepers are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/memory-foam-mattress-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">memory foam mattresses<\/a>. Memory foam naturally traps heat, which can be a problem for hot sleepers\u2014but if you&#8217;re looking to get warmer at night, then heat retention is what you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, since memory foam contours around your body, more of your body comes into contact with the mattress and so you tend to get warmer faster.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that many memory foam mattresses contain cooling elements in the foam, such as graphite, copper, or gel, to help keep you from overheating. This can help ensure you feel the warmth without getting sweaty and uncomfortable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When choosing a foam mattress, it&#8217;s a good idea to look for a mattress made with CertiPUR-US\u00ae<sup data-fn=\"bc25dedc-7e70-496c-988a-472bb7eb2ea1\" class=\"fn\"><a href=\"#bc25dedc-7e70-496c-988a-472bb7eb2ea1\" id=\"bc25dedc-7e70-496c-988a-472bb7eb2ea1-link\">1<\/a><\/sup> certified memory foam as these aren\u2019t treated with additional toxins and so are better for your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-bedding-for-cold-sleepers\">The best bedding for cold sleepers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a cold sleeper, there are many other products in addition to the mattress that can help you get warm and cozy at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, it\u2019s a good idea to get your thermostat set to the perfect temperature for you.
