Better Sleep: Study Shows Good Fats in the Diet Help Remedy Insomnia

From ScienceDaily .com

A placebo-controlled study by the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom suggests that higher levels of omega-3, the group of fatty acids found in fish oil, algae and seafood, are associated with better sleep. The researchers explored whether 16 weeks of daily 600 mg. supplements of algae sources would improve the sleep of 362 children.

The children who took part in the study were not selected for sleep problems, but were all struggling readers at a mainstream primary school. At the outset, the parents filled in a child sleep questionnaire, which revealed that 40% of the children in the study suffered from regular sleep disturbances. Of the children rated as having poor sleep, the researchers fitted wrist sensors to 43 of them to monitor their movements in bed over five nights.

This exploratory study showed that the children on a course of daily supplements of omega-3 had nearly one hour (58 minutes) more sleep and seven fewer waking episodes per night compared with the children taking the corn or soybean placebo.  The findings are due to be published in the Journal of Sleep Research.

Study Shows Quality Sleep Eludes Women – Natural Remedies may Help

From World Health .Net

Poor quality sleep, frequent interruptions in sleep duration, and waking earlier than desired are commonplace in today’s 24/7 society.

Paivi Polo-Kantola, from the University of Turku (Finland), and colleagues surveyed 850 mothers about their sleep when they were 42 years old, on average.  60% of the study subjects reported waking up frequently at night, 42% experienced morning sleepiness, and 32% were plagued by daytime sleepiness.

The team observed that postmenopausal hot flashes and night sweats further increased the difficulties with sleep. They observed that: “Chronic diseases and use of medications was associated with various sleep disturbances.” The researchers concluded that: “Almost one-quarter of middle-aged women are dissatisfied with their quality of sleep.”

This news is brought to you by http://www.Nutrition Breakthroughs, maker of the effective natural insomnia remedy Sleep Minerals II.  Sleep Minerals II is the original drug-free calcium and magnesium formula for relaxation and better sleep.  It soothes insomnia for everyone from teenagers, to women with menopause symptoms, to seniors.  The ingredients are formulated in a softgel with healthy oils, making them more quickly absorbable than tablets or capsules and providing a deeper, longer-lasting sleep.

Adelle Davis, one of the earliest nutritionists to base her dietary recommendations on scientific research, writes about the roles of calcium in her book “Let’s Eat Right to Keep Fit”. She suggests a natural sleep aid for insomnia and says: “A calcium deficiency often shows itself by insomnia, another form of an inability to relax. The harm done by sleeping tablets, to say nothing of the thousands of dollars spent on them, could largely be avoided if the calcium intake were adequate.”

Valerie H. of Santa Clarita, California says: “I had such severe menopause insomnia it took me hours to fall asleep even though I was extremely tired.  My legs also had crawling and tingling feelings at night. I got the Sleep Minerals and after a few days, it started to work really well. I fall asleep now within 20 minutes and no more restless legs.”
