Sleep research, sleep medications, sleep clinics, sleep advocacy …… How to get a good night’s sleep has become one of the top concerns. According to statistics from the National Institutes of Health, about 70 million Americans suffer from sleep problems. A recent statistical report released by the National Sleep Foundation shows that the sleep status of American women (18 to 64 years old) is particularly worrisome. Of the women surveyed, 60 percent have trouble sleeping several days a week, and 67 percent often experience a variety of sleep problems, such as insomnia, wakefulness, snoring, etc., and the problem worsens as they age. Bad sleep can bring bad mood. With bad sleep, people are prone to worry, agitation, stress, or depression and depression. These can further worsen sleep conditions and cause other bad consequences. According to conservative estimates by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, as many as 100,000 reported U.S. highway crashes each year are due to driver sleepiness and fatigue. Medical research has also concluded that sleep disorders increase the chances of developing high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes and other diseases, making them a major health concern. “Dr. Kathleen Lee of the National Sleep Foundation says that sleeping less than seven hours at night makes you easily sleepy and depressed during the day. Hospitals and clinics around the United States see the business opportunities, opened a large number of sleep centers. According to statistics, the number of sleep centers certified by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine has reached 1106, compared to 374 10 years ago. The prevalence of sleep disorders is now unbelievable,” says Mark Mahowald, a pioneering figure in the field of sleep medicine, “but many people are ignoring the problem and letting it get worse. In fact, most sleep disorders can be treated. As a result, there is still tremendous room for growth in the field of sleep medicine. To raise awareness of sleep issues in the United States, the National Sleep Foundation is actively promoting sleep awareness under the slogan “Making America sleep aware”. The organization has designated March 5-11 each year as National Sleep Awareness Week, a series of events to bring attention to sleep issues. The foundation’s simple suggestions should probably be mandatory bedside reading for most people: try to develop a standard schedule and try to maintain a regular sleep schedule; make sure the bedroom is dark enough, cool and quiet at night; make sure the bed, pillows and blankets are comfortable; exercise regularly, but not within three hours of bedtime; avoid caffeine-rich foods and beverages before bedtime and avoid alcohol; Nicotine can make it difficult to sleep, so smokers better quit smoking.
