Nighttime is one of the most overlooked risk factors for heat exhaustion. While you sleep, your body is supposed to recover, but when temperatures rise it has to work instead.
As it gets hotter, your heart and blood vessels work harder to push blood toward the skin so your body can release heat. Rather than resting, your cardiovascular system is under strain the entire night.
On top of that, sweating causes you to lose fluids and electrolytes. Electrolytes regulate your heartbeat, carry nerve signals through your body and prevent muscle cramps. Losing them overnight leaves you waking up tired, weak and less equipped to handle the heat of the next day.
The SafeSleep pillow helps your body maintain a stable temperature through the night, reducing the strain on your heart and limiting fluid loss, so sleep does what it is supposed to: restore you.
