Disrupted Sleep in Older People Linked to the Prevalence of Dementia

Do you find yourself waking up in the middle of the night? Do you struggle to get to sleep? If you do and you’re in your later years, you should know about a recent study that warns that trouble sleeping might be linked to the prevalence of dementia in older people. 

Bad sleep habits are also associated with other causes of early death. Sleep is vital to ensure that you’re healthy and happy. Your cognitive function is dependent on getting a good night’s sleep without interruptions. 

If you have a bad night’s sleep, your brain might feel a little foggy the next morning. If you sleep poorly on a regular basis, you will notice that your cognitive functioning is not what it used to be. In your later years, this is an even bigger issue. 

According to science, people should get between seven and 10 hours of sleep per night. When your sleep is interrupted, or you wake up in the middle of the night, you’re not getting solid sleep. At the end of the day, you want to ensure that you have good sleep habits and that you’re getting quality sleep.

Sleep is vital for your health and wellness, especially if you are an older person. If you struggle with getting a good night’s sleep, you should consider using CBD oil for sleep. Alternatively, look at over-the-counter medications for sleep or speak to your doctor about prescription medications.
