“Do you hit the snooze button on your alarm every morning? Do you feel like you never get enough sleep? You are not alone. Forty percent of Americans get less than seven hours of sleep each night; getting eight hours is recommended.
Lack of sleep on a day-to-day basis can lead to moodiness, increased hunger, and decreased brain function. People who
are severely sleep deprived because they rarely get enough sleep are more prone to weight gain, depression, and are more
at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. It is important to make getting adequate sleep a priority.
Establishing a nighttime routine is a great way to increase the amount and quality of your sleep. For instance, make an
effort to go to bed at the same time each night and wake up at the same time each morning. This will help set your
internal "clock" so that you are able to easily fall asleep and wake up each day. Another idea for getting good rest is to
limit how much caffeine you have each day. Drinking too much coffee, soda, or tea too late in the day can leave your
brain wide awake when your body is ready to sleep."
