| Fibromyalgia Pain 10 Tips for Better Sleep | | 2008-05-10 11:52:56 | | Do you toss and turn at night because of fibromyalgia pain or discomfort?"People with fibromyalgia tend to have very disturbed sleep"Research shows that with fibromyalgia, there is an automatic arousal in the brain during sleep. Frequent disruptions prevent the important restorative processes from occurring. Growth hormone is mostly produced during sleep. Without restorative sleep and the surge of growth hormone, muscles don’t heal and neurotransmitters (like the mood chemical serotonin) are not replenished. The lack of a good night’s sleep makes people with fibromyalgia wake up feeling tired and fatigued.The result: The body can't recuperate from the day's stresses -- all of which overwhelms the system, creating a great sensitivity to pain. Widespread pain, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and memory difficulties are all symptoms of fibromyalgia.Insomnia takes many forms -- trouble falling asleep, waking up often during the night, having trouble going back to sleep, a | | By: Complete Health Blog | | |

| Acquiring A Good Night's Sleep | | 2008-04-14 20:42:00 | | 40 million people in the United States endure sleep problems every year, as stated by the FDA. The 2007 Sleep in America Poll confirmed that two-thirds of women surveyed experienced difficulty sleeping at least a few nights a week throughout the last month. Stress is one of the key reasons for problems with sleep. Busy days with too much to think about, monetary pressure, family concerns, worries . . . it's too easy to lie awake at night -- and consequently find yourself worn out the next day.

Deep Relaxation may possibly be extremely useful for difficulties in sleeping, reducing your stress, allowing your body and mind to stop being on "red alert". Parents of young children are aware that bedtime rituals help their children get to sleep, and sleep well through the night. Did you know it's advantageous for adults as well?

Smokers commonly experience difficulty falling asleep due to the stimulating effects of nicotine. As night evolves, withdrawal from nicotine may further contribute to sleep disturbance," study author Dr. Naresh M. Punjabi, of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, said in a prepared statement.Punjabi and colleagues studied the sleep patterns of 40 smokers and 40 nonsmokers. They found that 22.5 percent of smokers reported a lack of restful sleep, compared with only 5 percent of nonsmokers.

| Nutrition, Fitness, Relaxation And Sleep - The Recipe For A Healthy Lifestyle | | 2008-03-30 21:53:00 | | I can honestly say I felt at my best when I was in my thirties. I was physically, mentally and emotionally at my peak and firing on all cylinders. Since then, it's definitely gone down hill and I've lost plenty of brain cells and lean muscle. I haven't lost weight though as muscle has been replaced by fat - plenty of it. Over the years it's crept on. I've gained a pound here, a pound there, but regrettably haven't taken action to get rid of it straight away. Now over the past twenty years those pounds have turned into stones, so no prizes for guessing what my New Year's resolution was. I watched a programme on tv over the festive period which was probably cleverly scheduled to prevent people from eating too much over the Christmas break. It was about a poor man who had to lose 30 stone or risk dying. He had reached the point where he couldn't even get out of bed and his whole life was spent in the confines of his four walls. He'd lost all self-esteem, and was physically incapable of do | | By: Nutrition Facts, Nutrition Guides | | |

| Are You Getting Enough Sleep? | | 2008-03-20 21:01:30 | | After you put the last dinner dishes away and the evening news, you probably think about going to bed. But for the 40 million estimated Americans who suffer from a chronic sleep disorder, going to bed doesn't necessarily mean going to sleep. And for the 20 to 30 million others who experience occasional sleep disturbances, nighttime isn't a picnic. Some researchers have postulated that the United States is the most sleep deprived country. And it's no wonder. With 24-hour factories and malls, high stress levels at work, and round-the-clock schedules, Americans barely have time to breathe, much less sleep a good 8 hours every night. Even when you want to sleep, the cares of the day sometimes keep you from closing your eyes. In fact, according to the National Sleep Foundation, on any given night, slightly more than 1-4 Americans rate the quality of their night's sleep as either "fair" or "poor" Of course, the Americans aren't alone in their devotion to round-the-clock living.

| Daytime sleep improves memory consolidation | | 2008-03-20 21:00:40 | | A ninety minute daytime nap helps speed up the process of long term memory consolidation, a recent study conducted by Prof. Avi Karni and Dr. Maria Korman of the Center for Brain and Behavior Research at the University of Haifa found. The research was published in the scientific journal Nature Neuroscience. "We still don't know the exact mechanism of the memory process that occurs during sleep, but the results of this research suggest the possibility that it is possible to speed up memory consolidation, and in the future, we may be able to do it artificially," said Prof. Karni. Long term memory is defined as a permanent memory that doesn't disappear or that disappears after many years. This part of our memory is divided into two types -- memories of "what" (for example: what happened yesterday or what one remembers from an article one read yesterday) and memories of "how to" (for example: how to read Hebrew, how to drive, play basketball or play the piano).
