KIMS Does sleeping in AC weaken immunity?

As temperatures continue to soar during summer, air conditioners have become essential in many households. Yet despite their widespread use, concerns about sleeping in air-conditioned rooms persist — especially the belief that AC exposure weakens the body’s “immunity power.”

According to Dr Manas Mengar, this idea is largely a myth.“Air conditioning itself does not weaken immunity,” says Dr Mengar. “From a pulmonologist’s perspective, the bigger concern is how the AC is being used rather than the cooling itself.”
