Why experts don’t always recommend sleeping with a fan on

Has anyone else noticed that it’s a little… warm right now? Like, really warm? And for many, this deep humidity can have a major impact on sleep – after all, having a bedroom that’s part-snooze station and part-sauna can be pretty uncomfortable. The obvious solution for sleeping in the heat? A fan! Right? Erm, unfortunately (and we hate to be the ones to break this to you) some experts are actually warning against sleeping with a fan on.

According to Sleep Advisor, sleeping with a fan on might not always be a great idea for health-related reasons, as although having a fan on will circulate air to make your room cooler and fresher, it can also circulate pollen and dust. Which isn’t ideal if you suffer from allergies, asthma or hay fever (which has also ramped up for many at this time of year).

“Take a close look at your fan,” the Sleep Advisor suggests. “If it’s been collecting dust on the blades, those particles are flying through the air every time you turn it on.”

Other reasons not to sleep with a fan on include the fact that it can dry out your skin, as well as your nasal passages, and if your nasal passages become too dry, Sleep Advisor warns that the body can produce excess mucous, making you feel all bunged up come morning time. Not ideal…

And then there’s muscle cramping. “People who sleep with a breeze directly on them may wake up with stiff or sore muscles. This is because the concentrated cool air can make muscles tense up and cramp,” the experts explain. “This problem is especially common for people who sleep with it near their face and neck. If you’ve been waking up with a stiff neck in the morning, it might be because of the constant breeze.”

On the flip-side, the article does point out that fans in the bedroom can work well for people as provide comforting white noise to help people drift off to sleep when it’s stuffy.

But if you’re prone to allergies, it could be worth trying other options like a cool flannel in a bowl of water near your bed, or sleeping on top of the covers with the window open. Happy sweating either way, folks!

“What Happened to His Chin?” Brad Pitt Creates a Heavy Stir With Recent Appearance

As one of Hollywood’s biggest and most beloved heartthrobs, Brad Pitt’s appearances often attract significant attention. However, his latest look has garnered a special kind of attention, leaving fans curious about a specific feature.

Stirring up buzz both online and at the F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain, Brad Pitt made a noteworthy entrance at Silverstone Circuit just a few days ago. He is there filming his upcoming Formula 1 movie titled “F1,” which is expected to be released on June 25, 2025.

Pitt is set to portray Sonny Hayes, a seasoned driver making a comeback to the F1 grid after a prolonged absence.

With a shorter haircut featuring light blonde color and dark roots, the 60-year-old actor looked striking in an all-white racing suit, which represents the fictional “APX GP” team.

Though he cut a handsome figure in his racing gear, onlookers couldn’t help but observe some notable changes in his appearance.

Once the videos surfaced online, fans were quick to gush over the handsome star, praising his good looks and forever youthful appearance. One fan noted, “Wow. He looks amazing,” while another observed that he “looks younger.” A third admirer wrote, “He looks really healthy now and younger.”

Many online users, however, believed that the Fight Club actor looks different. One Facebook user commented, “His face looks chubby with that hair, or something is different.” The actor’s chin was particularly questioned, with one person asking, “What is happening to his chin?”

Similar to Brad Pitt, Tom Hanks is also a Hollywood icon, and fans have been expressing concern over his recent appearance, which has sparked widespread commentary. You can view the photos here.
