Last night, CBS ran a segment on 60 Minutes called The Science of Sleep.
They covered some of topics that we have previously blogged about such as: Lack of sleep and risk of cardiovascular disease, Sleep contributing to better memory , and more. Pretty interesting segment – worth a watch!
-- Important: The Sleep Blog does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Instead, this website provides general information for educational purposes only. Always seek the advice of a qualified health care provider if you have questions or concerns regarding any medical condition or treatment.
This is a really good segment to watch. It’s amazing what science knows about sleep, yet it hasn’t transitioned to the average Joe.
Interesting segment. But when you’re having problems it’s very hard to get a full night sleep. I do agree that sleep helps your memory.
I use a product that really helped me after 15 years of insomnia. It’s all natural and well worth the money. This website advertises several products; I have no idea how effective the other product’s are but the one they call PM has really been a Godsend to me.

Luckily I have no problem with insomnia. But what can you do when you’re sleepy all the time?
I love your site! 🙂

This is a great video series about sleep from 60 minutes. Thank you so much
What I have learned is that sleeping patterns are like bad habits, the more you work at breaking them the more they become natural. I’ve gone years without sleeping much, and as a new years resolution I am committed to getting more sleep. I fall off plenty, but am able to get right back on track with good habits. I definitely feel great when I sleep a good nights sleep too. Check out my blog if you want to follow along as I make progress.
Hi, I used to dream I was dieing or something because my brain never got enough oxygen at night due to sleep apnea. But I recently had laser surgery and now I can’t sleep just due to stress and stuff like that. I’m blogging to talk to others to see what’s up too. Yesterday I found an awesome blog site for living longer and sleeping better:

Here’s a great CBS News video on Sleep:

I remember a while ago one of the larger networks ran a story on sleep deprivation and how the symptoms were nearly identical to being drunk. It’s amazing to think how much being deprived of sleep can effect a person.
