Insomnia equals more trips to the bathroom

Does it ever seem like on those nights you're stuck lying awake you're also getting up to use the bathroom more often? Well it's not your imagination, and we have Danish researchers to thank for understanding the science behind why. They recently did a study looking at men and women and how much urine their bodies produced while sleeping overnight versus while kept awake overnight, and they found that although both sexes made more urine while awake the effect was much more pronounced in men.

Lucky you. A very random bit of information, but we all need those sometimes, right?
