Sleep is essential for a healthy body, what role does it play exactly?
A third of our life is devoted to sleep! It is an integral part of our vital functions in the same way as our breathing, our immunity, our digestion… It participates in the balance and quality of life allowing the recovery of physical, psychological and mental forces and a reorganization of neuronal connections to that our body adapts daily and optimally to the environment. Sleep has an impact on many parameters: Maintaining alertness, rebuilding the energy stocks of muscle and nerve cells, regulating blood sugar, stimulating immune defences, regulating mood, thinness, learning and memory mechanisms. It is essential to become aware of the absolute necessity of maintaining and preserving one’s sleep, for one’s daily life in the short term and one’s health in the longer term. Sleep needs vary greatly from one individual to another. Currently, the average duration of sleep in adults on weekdays is 7 hours* and increases to 8 hours* on weekends and overall, the older a subject gets, the less he sleeps (lighter, more fragmented sleep). We also describe heavy sleepers (9-10 hours of sleep per night) and light sleepers (less than 6 hours per night). In 50 years, the average sleep time of the French has decreased by 1 hour 30. *INSV/MGEN 2017 survey
What are the most common sleep disorders and what are their impacts on daily life?
The French do not sleep enough and complain about it. This sleep debt has repercussions on health, especially for people who sleep less than 6 hours during the work week. A quarter of French people are permanently sleep deprived, hence the increasingly frequent appearance of “drowsy” subjects. Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder; 1 out of 3 French people complain about it! The causes often mentioned are anxiety, stress and overload of activities. Sleep is then described as poor quality, with difficulty falling asleep, multiple awakenings during the night and early awakening before the alarm clock rings! To reduce these sleep disorders, a solution: extend your sleep time on weekends but above all manage to sleep more during the week by considering the quantity but also the quality of sleep. Food supplements take their place here to provide natural, effective solutions, to be used in complete safety.
