Sleep Better for Baby Boomers

Sleep is a cornerstone of health, particularly for Baby Boomers. As you age, getting a good night’s sleep becomes even more crucial, affecting everything from your mood to your overall well-being. But many baby boomers face unique challenges that disrupt their sleep. As we age, our sleep patterns naturally change. You might find yourself waking up earlier or struggling to stay asleep through the night. This is because the body’s internal clock shifts, often leading to lighter, more fragmented sleep. Aging can also bring about physical changes that impact sleep quality. Decreased production of Growth hormones can reduce deep sleep, while changes in the brain can alter how long it takes to fall asleep and stay asleep.

 In this section, we will dive into some effective sleep tips specifically designed for baby boomers to help you reclaim your restful nights. Topics to be explored include Insomnia, Sleep Apnea, Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), creating the ideal sleep environment with comfortable mattresses and pillows and sleeping at the optimal room temperature, the role of napping, and a look at the effect of Diet, foods and Exercise on the quality of sleep for seniors.
