What is the "right" amount of sleep?
This is a popular question. First of all, there is no "correct" amount of sleep. Experts do recommend getting 7-9 hours of sleep per night, but the fact is individuals needs vary. Some people function fine with 4-5 hours of sleep, while others need 9 hours to feel alert the next day. Interestingly, recent studies suggests that getting 7-8 hours of sleep is ideal. Less or more than this amount has been shown to make one more susceptible to certain disease condition. But realistically, not everyone can obtain this amount of sleep. Therefore, try to achieve consistency in your sleeping habits, rather than counting the hours you sleep on a given night.
How do I know if I'm getting good sleep?
If you answer yes to one of the following questions, chances are you may need to get more sleep, or are not getting quality periods of rest.
- Do I rely on an alarm clock to get you up in the morning?
- Do I hit the snooze button every morning?
- Do I fall asleep watching Television or get extremely drowsy reading a book?
- Do I feel like I need a nap each day?
Of note: If you do not get enough quality sleep you may develop a "sleep debt." This "debt" can accumulate overtime and lead to progressively poorer functioning and adversely impact your normal, day-to-day activity.
How do I recognize if I have a sleep problem?
Common Symptoms of Sleep Problems include:
- Daytime sleepiness (falling asleep at work, at school, when driving, or while talking)
- Fatigue
- Forgetfulness
- Irritability
- Mood changes
- Morning headaches
- Less interest in sexual relations
Is nutrition really that important for addressing sleep-related issues?
Absolutely. Some foods can improve sleep, while others can make sleep difficult or even impossible. For example, leafy green vegetables, whole grain breads, cereals, and mushrooms have all been shown to promote rest. Some fruits and spices help with sleep problems as well. We are all aware of the time-honored remedy of Mom's glass of warm milk at bedtime. It remains a common method utilized to aid in the sleep process. Once dismissed as another urban legend, modern research has confirmed that milk contains an important chemical that promotes relaxation and sleep - tryptophan.
Foods can also keep you awake. Coffee and drinks that contain caffeine (e.g. chocolate, cocoa, soft drinks, etc.) can make one restless. Overly sweet, spicy, or fatty foods can also cause indigestion, acid reflux, and/or bloating. Consuming alcohol, although it may make you sleepy, disturbs the sleep patterns later in the night and can cause severe sleep problems. Making adjustments to your current diet, including nutritional supplementation, can pay big dividends when it comes time to sleep.
