Health Tip

Insomnia

Many people having trouble fall asleep at night or we call it “insomnia.” Some people have to see their doctor to have them prescribe for medicine or sleeping pills. There is a solution without using or having any medication according to the researchers at the Federal University of Sao Paulo in Brazil. Moderate exercise a few hours before bedtime helps insomnia patients sleep far better. The study found that those who did moderate aerobic exercise in the evenings fell asleep more quickly, woke less often and increased their total sleep time. On the other hand, intense aerobic exercise and moderate strength training had no effect. “The results show that there is a way to diminish the symptoms of insomnia without using medication,” said researcher Giselle Passos.
There is another option to fall sleep fast without using medication or moderate exercise, drink warm milk!
