Reclaiming a Good Night's Sleep

[Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen, MDs] Reclaiming a Good Night's Sleep By Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen, MDs Insomnia is increasing as the economic, social, emotional, and physical stresses of the pandemic make it hard to turn off worries. That means people who never had sleep woes before are contending with its complications, such as hampered performance at school or work, slower reaction times (driving is riskier), increased drinking, depression, and anxiety, and an increasing risk of high blood pressure, cancer, dementia, and heart disease. You want to take steps to break the pattern and restore a healthy sleep as quickly as possible. Not only will you restore your energy and a rosier outlook, you will be taking important steps to control your sleep-affected blood pressure and heart health. Special: [Top US Doctor: Sugar Is Not the Problem – This Is]( One study found that people who sleep less than six hours a night raise their risk of heart attack by 20%, and another found that people who report sleep disturbances almost nightly are at a 40%-50% increased risk of heart attack. Here’s how to get started: • Establish a routine and stick to it. If homeschooling, working from home, or unemployed, lockdowns have likely thrown your schedule out the window, and chances are your sleep has suffered. Write out a schedule for getting out of bed, having breakfast, exercising, working/homeschooling, getting into bed, etc. And post it so you and your household can see and follow. • Institute stimulus control. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine says to go to bed only when sleepy, leave the bed when you're unable to sleep, avoid naps, and use the bed only for sleep and sex. Keep digital devices and screens out of the bedroom. • Identify the sleep disrupters such as habits (drinking or eating before bedtime, smoking, taking recreational drugs), medications, and health problems such as sleep apnea, diabetes, or chronic pain that can contribute to disturbed sleep. Asthma, gastroesophageal reflux disease, overactive thyroid, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease are often sleep robbers too. Talk with your doctor about resolving those issues. • Adopt the intermittent fasting schedule in Dr. Mike's “What to Eat When.” • Make sure to get 10,000 steps or the equivalent daily — even if indoors. Physical activity is essential for good sleep. --------------------------------------------------------------- Special Message --------------------------------------------------------------- [Doctor's New Discovery Makes Loose Skin Vanish]( Have you ever heard the term “turkey neck”? It’s an unflattering term for the loose skin that forms underneath the chin with age. And according to skin experts, it can add years — and even the illusion of excess pounds — onto a person’s appearance (even if they otherwise look youthful and slim). But what if you could reduce that flabby extra skin, quickly and easily, by making one small change to your daily routine? (And no, we’re not talking about surgery or injections.) For months, rumors have been circulating about a mysterious do-it-yourself method that helps tighten the appearance of sagging skin, on the neck, face, and anywhere else it forms. But exciting as this sounded, it was impossible to confirm, because — while numerous people claimed to know how it was done — no one seemed willing to share the details. That is, until last week, when a world-famous plastic surgeon posted this video on the internet. In it, he explains the rumored “skin-sculpting” secret from beginning to end (complete with instructions), allowing women everywhere to finally try it for themselves. The verdict? Believe it or not, this skin firming technique is no joke. For one, it’s so easy anyone can do it in a few seconds a day... and it also works on any type of drooping skin (whether it’s your neck, cheeks, under-eyes, or even flabby upper arms). If you'd like to try this innovative”tighter skin” technique at home, you can view the instructional video in its entirety below. It’s a fascinating presentation (even if you don’t have sagging skin).
