Deep Restful Sleep with Patented Recovery Complex

Adults need 7 or more hours of sleep per night for the best health and wellbeing. Short sleep duration is defined as less than 7 hours of sleep per 24-hour period

Geographic Variation in Short Sleep Duration Below, the age-adjusted percentage of adults who reported short sleep duration (less than 7 hours of sleep per 24-hour period), by state in the United States. The percentage varies considerably by state, from less than 30% in Colorado, South Dakota, and Minnesota to more than 40% in Kentucky and Hawaii. The highest percentages were in the southeastern United States and in states along the Appalachian Mountains. The lowest percentages were in the Great Plains states.

Age-Adjusted Prevalence of Short Sleep Duration; less than 7 hours. Among Adults Aged 18 Years and older, by State, United States.

Adults who were short sleepers (less than 7 hours of sleep per 24-hour period) were more likely to report being obese, physically inactive, and current smokers compared to people who got enough sleep (7 or more hours per 24-hour period).

Chronic Health Conditions caused by Short Sleep Duration

Adults who were short sleepers (less than 7 hours per 24-hour period) were more likely to report chronic health conditions compared to those who got enough sleep (7 or more hours per 24-hour period).

Age-Adjusted Percentage Reporting Chronic Health Conditions by Sleep Duration—Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, United States,

A person who is getting too little quality sleep may experience a range of symptoms, including:

• fatigue

• irritability

• mood changes

• difficulty focusing and remembering

• a reduced sex drive

It is important to consider the quality, as well as quantity, of sleep. If a person has low-quality sleep, they feel tired the next day, regardless of how many hours they have slept.

Low-quality sleep may involve:

• waking often during the night

• breathing difficulties, such as sleep apnea

• an environment that is too hot, cold, or noisy

• an uncomfortable bed

Johns Hopkins sleep researcher Patrick Finan, Ph.D. Sleep deprivation can also affect your judgment so that you don’t notice its effects.

Scientists categorized the stages of sleep based on the characteristics of the brain and body during sleep. Stage 1,2,3, and 4, are categorized as ‘non-REM sleep’, and the fifth stage, is REM sleep. Generally, brainwave frequencies and amplitudes from an electroencephalogram (EEG) are used to differentiate the different stages of sleep, along with other biologic rhythms including eye movements (EOG) and muscle movements (EMG).

Non-REM Sleep of the Sleep Cycle

Stage 1 Sleep
Stage 1 of the sleep cycle is the lightest stage of sleep. The EEG brain frequency is slightly slower than during wake time. There is muscle tone present in the skeletal muscles. Breathing occurs at a regular rate.

Stage 2 Sleep
Stage 2 usually follow Stage 1 and represents deeper sleep. During Stage 2 sleep, the sleeper is less able to be awakened. Stage 2 sleep is characterized by 'saw tooth waves' and sleep spindles.

Stage 3 and 4 Sleep - Deep Sleep

Stage 3 and Stage 4 sleep of the sleep cycle are progressively deeper stages of sleep. These stages of sleep are also called ‘Slow Wave Sleep’ (SWS), or delta sleep. During SWS, the EEG shows a much slower frequency with high amplitude signals (delta waves). A sleeper in SWS is often difficult to awaken. Some studies have demonstrated that very loud noises, sometimes over 100 decibels, will not awaken some during SWS. As humans get older, they spend less time in slow wave deep sleep and more time in Stage 2 sleep.

Slow-wave sleep is generally referred to as deep sleep and is comprised of the deepest stage of NREM. In stage three we see the greatest arousal thresholds, such as difficulty in awakening, and so on. After being awoken, the person will generally feel quite groggy, and cognitive tests that have been administered after being awoken from the third stage show that for up to half an hour or so, and when compared to awakenings from the other stages, mental performance is moderately impaired. This is a phenomenon known as sleep inertia. When sleep deprivation has occurred there’s generally a sharp rebound of slow-wave sleep, which suggests that there’s a need for slow-wave sleep. It now appears that slow-wave sleep is a highly active state, and not a brain quiescence as previously believed. In fact, brain imaging data shows that regional brain activity during non-REM sleep is influenced by the most recent waking experience

Stage 5 Sleep (REM Sleep) of the Sleep Cycle

Stage 5 of the sleep cycle, or REM sleep, is the stage of sleep associated with dreaming. It is very different physiologically from the other stages of sleep. The EEG resembles wake time. However, the skeletal muscles are atonic, or without movement.

The breathing is more erratic and irregular. The heart rate often increases. It is theorized that muscle atonia evolved to protect the individual from injury during sleep.
