70% of women have sleep problems

Categories: Healthy Habits, Diet & Weight Loss

The National Sleep Foundation recently conducted a poll of women and their sleeping habits, and a whopping 70% of women report sleeping problems on at least some nights -- with 29% using some kind of sleep aid on a regular basis. The survey included 1,003 women between the ages of 18 and 64 from all around the country, and pregnant women/new moms came out as getting the worst sleep, with aging women next.

Experts at the National Sleep Foundation encourage all women to "make sleep a priority," and give some advice on what they call proper sleep hygiene -- which includes things like keeping a regular schedule and having a relaxing bedtime routine. With this being National Sleep Awareness Week, it's as good a time as any to give this issue some attention!
