10 Tips for Better Sleep

Sleep is important. It allows your body to recover, but also to perform vital metabolic processes — such as the cleanup of toxic proteins in the brain, a mouse study showed.[1] And of course, during REM sleep, your “sleeping” brain is very busy consolidating short-term memories into long-term memories.

Unsurprisingly, lack of sleep has been associated with a multitude of health issues. It has been shown to increase inflammation[4] and impair focus, fat loss, insulin signaling, testosterone production, and cardiovascular health.

Getting enough sleep — enough quality sleep — isn’t only a health necessity, either; it can also help you perform better mentally, physically, and sexually,[19] and it can certainly make you a lot happier!
