Natural fabrics like cotton, silk and wool are the best for people who sleep hot or experience night sweats<\/a>.<\/p>\n They are better than synthetic fabrics such as polyester.<\/p>\n So a wool duvet should keep you cool and cozy at night.<\/p>\n If you find yourself sweating when sleeping under a wool duvet, it could be an issue with the type of duvet<\/a>, your body or the kind of bedding you are using.<\/p>\n Here are some reasons your wool duvet is making you sweat.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are over a dozen types of wool including Merino, cashmere and Alpaca wool. These varieties have different levels of breathability.<\/p>\n For instance, camel wool is more insulative than many other types of wool. So a camel wool duvet may feel a bit warm and make you sweat.<\/p>\n When blended with other fibres, especially synthetic fibres, wool can lose some of its breathability.<\/p>\n A wool and polyester blend duvet may feel warmer than a pure wool duvet, making you sweat more.<\/p>\n If you want a wool blend duvet, look for those that contain a blend of two natural fibres such as wool and silk or wool and cotton.<\/p>\n Since the other fibre is also naturally breathable, the duvet is unlikely to make you sweat.<\/p>\n In most cases, the duvet is not the problem. It\u2019s you.<\/p>\n You may have heat sensitivity or intolerance. This can just be how your body is naturally or it can be caused by a health condition such as Hyperthyroidism or multiple sclerosis.<\/p>\n If it\u2019s mild sensitivity, the best solution is to make sure the rest of your bedding is cool as well. Switch to a latex or innerspring mattress and use cooling sheets made from fabrics like silk, linen or percale.<\/p>\n For serious health conditions, it\u2019s best to talk to your doctor on how you can sleep cooler.<\/p>\nLess breathable type of wool<\/h2>\n
