Your neck and head accumulate more heat, especially if your pillow isn't breathable. A temperature-regulating pillowcase solves this problem.

2. Which fabrics should you avoid for the bed?
Avoid synthetic materials like polyester and microfiber: they don't allow sweat to evaporate.

Lower the temperature in the bedroom, use breathable linens and choose thermoregulating accessories such as the Artico Profili Pillow Cover.
