Having Trouble Sleeping? Your Cell Phone may be to Blame

According to a recent study of 35 men and 36 women between 18 and 45 found that cell phones may interfere with our sleep. According to a BBC article about the study, one group of participants in the study was exposed to radiation similar to that emitted by mobile phones; the control group was not emitted to the same radiation. Participants that were exposed to the radiation were not able to reach the deep stages of sleep as quickly as the control group.

Is there a Link Between Education and Sleep?

Apparently, yes. According to study, discussed in an article in the Times of India, there appears to be a link between a person’s level of education and the quality of their sleep. The study of almost 40,000 Taiwanese adults found that:
