A doctor on TikTok has gone viral for claiming that one should never sleep naked.

In Anthony Youn’s video, "Why you should never sleep without underpants!", he says: "The average person passes gas 15 to 25 times a day, and this can happen while you’re sleeping."

So what's the issue?

Dr Youn goes on to say that "every time you pass gas, you’re spraying a tiny amount of faecal material."

And wearing underwear can help will catch all of these particles, "That same study shows your tighty-whities will catch all of these particles,"

"So, for the sake of your bed partner, please sleep with your underwear on!”
