Simple sleep remedy

Simple sleep remedy

Date: 2016-03-04
We all know how important it is to get a good night's sleep, but in recent years, the average amount of sleep we get has been steadily decreasing. In both men and women, the average amount of sleep has dropped from 7-8 hours a night to 6-7 hours.

While this might not seem like a big difference to some, it makes a huge difference to your body. During the day, your body is working hard to keep up with your day and it requires the appropriate amount of time to rest, recover, and recharge to do it all over again.

In 2011, theEuropean Heart Journal'sreview of 15 medical studies involving almost 475,000 people found that people with shortened sleep cycles had a 48% increased risk of developing or dying from coronary heart disease.They also found that these people were also at a 15% greater risk of developing or dying from stroke.

Interestingly enough, the study also found that long sleepers, or people who average nine or more hours a night, also showed a 38% risk increase in developing or dying from coronary heart disease and a 65% increased risk of stroke. With sleep, as with most things, balance is the most important thing.

The world we live in today doesn't make it any easier for us to get a good night's sleep. People are reporting higher levels of stress caused by things like work, current events, family situations, and other factors that didn't affect past generations. We are also using more and moretechnologythat affects our sleep cycles without us even realizing it.
