I love how those studies assume people sleep in one of the positions! I use all 3 positions multiple times a night!
I find that browsing CZcams videos puts me right to sleep... Problem is, I drop my phone on my face or chest, but that's my cue to hang it up! 😴
I'm glad that I'm not the only person to do this 😂 I used a tablet holder so I don't need to hold it until I fall asleep; the only thing that hinders me to automatically fall asleep is my glasses, I must wear them off before sleeping
Yes! We are a select few.
💯! I often have to look around and follow the charging cord to find my phone on the floor next to me LOL
Yes i know that. Allways hit my face😂
Yea, I listen to them more than watching them. Light doesn't bother me though. I sleep best in the daytime so if I turn on a light or phone, I might fall asleep. For some weird reason I fall asleep holding my phone and not dropping it. I wake up after the video ends, then I put the phone down, I have no idea how this can happen.
"avoid blue light before bed" *has an all blue background*
Nah dawg its red
Why does hearing Robin & Stu's voices make me so happy? I think I'll sleep well tonight.
Happy it helps 😊
@@DebunkedOfficialI'm being serious here : Has this guy voiced television documentaries ? His voice sounds Very familiar . ♑️✍️🇳🇴🇦🇺
@@Friendship1nmillion He has voiced audio books and used to be the voice of the Alltime Movies and Alltime Conspiracies CZcams Channels. Hope that helps.
Considering we went from exercising up to 4 hours in the prehistoric era to 0 in the modern era it definetly explains alot.
Not me watching this at 4 am
😆 Go to sleep!
In summer I mostly shower late, nice to know that thats good^^
Sadly, my room is almost impossible to cool below 24° C in summer because the building is very new and isolated pretty good (no there is no AC), keeping windows open the whole night only brings it down from 25+ to about 24
You're not alone with your temperature problem mate
I use a blue light filter for my computer, and use smart lighting to adjust color temps in the morning and evening, and I wake up almost every morning feeling energized... having had no problems falling asleep. I sleep on the floor most nights, and the only thing that I've found to keep me from falling asleep is not being comfy. That is almost always solved by turning to my other side, at which point I'm usually out in less than 5 minutes.
I work night shift as a Security Guard and sleep during the day. Any suggestions for how I could get a better sleep? Would it be better for me to sleep during the morning right after I get off work or stay up a bit and sleep in the early afternoon? Is pacing around at work better than sitting and relaxing? Does always wearing sunglasses during the day when outside negatively effect my ability to sleep when I’m inside? Does wearing a face mask over my eyes negatively effect my sleep quality in the long run?
Get TF OFF night shift!! Your body simply CAN’T adjust to that as a regular daily schedule…
12:15 Maybe use a warm color light/tone on your screen or set it to a black screen. Maybe sleep when you fall asleep at home. I think balance is good. Like between relaxing and some activity. Listen to something relaxing to help you fall asleep. You can look up your questions.
@@zeebest1004 not everyone has that option...
Exercise during work and sleep in a pitch black room
Yes it CAN adjust. I've been doing it for over a decade. No problems.
So that's why being a side-sleeper I always unintentionally embraced the blanket with my legs. Seems to be for the same reason as they recommended a pillow here
I cannot sleep when I am hungry, so eating in late evening is absolutely fine for me, overeating on the other hand is not.
Sleeping position is a weird one, I tried to look into that one and I found a lot of contradictory papers and no really well done study with big enough and random enough sample. I am stick what feels the most comfortable.
There may be other medical conditions that affect your optimum sleeping position.
It's somehow funny, that if I got exhausted by exercise or work over the day, I'll have a really hard evening, trying to find any sleep, because when I get home, all that tiredness completely goes away in about 10-30mins of being back home and transforms into "I wanna do more" from my body and mind...
same lol
Very useful information! Splendid work man.
Thanks 😊
All your videos are brilliant and your funny as well keep making more please better than anything on tv well done
Great video. Thank you.
I do get pretty tired from a workout. I can't do it right after work because my whole day would consist of work, workout & sleep.
Very useful information, thanks!
Thanks for watching
You’re so real for this 🙏😘
I'm 61 I work on a building site. My back and calf muscles hurt every day, they still hurt in the morning. I've just brought another turnaround project to do when I get home from work. I never get a good night's sleep
Can you talk about young and old then ancient forests and there co2 uptake differences.
Also at the same time explaining why more co2 with less trees = darker green but doesn't mean its good for the plants or earth.
Very interesting topic.
@@DebunkedOfficial is that a yes?
I eat late, watch screens until bedtime, the room temperature would rarely be below 21 deg C, sleep on mainly my stomach with a firm pillow and don't have problems in going to sleep and don't suffer neck or back pain but I do exercise during the day and consider myself resonably fit.
5:51 Smoooth operator, smoooth operator 🎵
I always smile when I see an upload from this channel.
😊
I always take my toddler out to run and play in the afternoon and I constantly recommend others do it, because not only does it give them some good sensory play but it also burns all that last bit of energy and he sleeps through the night regularly 👍🏻
I agree with the food topic, I hate that I end up eating dinner at 2am before I head to bed. I hate this. But thankfully (for some reason) watching educational videos help me fall asleep as I learn. I fall asleep quickly and eases my mindset.
You'll figure it out, buddy!
This explains why I can't sleep even though I do heavy exercise during the day - I feel unfit and unwell.
I sleep perfect in a heartbeat, all night and I don't train at all... Unless you count running in cod training 😂 Maybe because I love sleeping my body loves it as well.
Wow guys get a load of Mr perfect sleep over here next thing you'll be telling us you have a roof over your head too lol like if you're going to lie at least make it believable 😆
Ahh yes, Mr perfect sleep, that's a good nickname actually, thanks for the input 😂 anyway, that's me.. And if you don't believe it I couldn't care less, you're just one guy on the other side of the world 😂
I just wonder why you watched this video-was it to see if you do everything to the letter or see if you’re just naturally a perfect sleeper regardless of your surroundings or exertion levels and such?
Listening to minute 3:47 while having dinner at 5am hitted me hard 😢. Greetings from spain 🇪🇸
About the best temperatures to keep the bedroom. I dont think that is universal.
Some hot countries like mine have an average temperatures ranging from 27-32°C.
Amd growing up in such environs males any temperature below 20°C so cold.
So imagine a temperature of 18°C in the bedroom.
Itll need a lot of getting used to.
Short,i think the temperature of comfort vary from person to person
And heavily dependent on temperature you grew up in
For me there is nothing that keeps me awake for longer than getting into an ice cold bed in winter 😖 The bedroom itself I keep quite cool all year round, but I have an electric blanket on in bed in the winter and hour or so before I go to bed 🤷♀️ I fall asleep very quickly in a nice warm bed but an ice cold bed will see me lying awake for ages until my body heat has warmed up the bed and blankets. I agree on taking a shower before bed ☺️ Very relaxing.
Where did the timeline chart come from? I’d like to use this as a reference to help with sleep and daily living.
Over the coming week I’ll make a shareable image version and upload it to the community tab. 👍 Thanks
Decent video for the intended purpose, but there are a few problems, mainly in the sleep position segment. Flat on your back is NOT the best sleeping position, as while it does provide the best passive vertebral alignment it also brings a significant aspiration hazard (choking on your own saliva or nose secretions), the safest sleep position is lateral. Also the second pillow between the knees, while based on real (older) research, has been debunked years ago for multiple reasons, the simplest one being that most people don't stay motionless during sleep and impeding leg movement activates autonomous defense reflexes, stimulating the RAS and consequently lowering sleep quality.
As a welder/fabricator I wouldn't dream of going to bed without showering before hand. I would literally turn the bedsheets black.
Even on my days off I wouldnt feel great getting upto 'after hours activities' with a days worth of sweat and other nasties lingering around.
I'm definitely in the shower before bed camp.
Same here 😂
9:14
Due to me being underweight, I am often shivering at 65 degrees Fahrenheit...
11:54 - well, there's an alternative here...
if you *don't* watch interesting videos, that may actually make you sleep faster...
what I have been doing for a long time is watching videos without audio about metal pouring (BigStackD) or some restauration videos...
most of the time I don't even finish the video, since I almost left my mobile fall...
I think it deserves a little bit more of investigation...
Interesting proposition, expect there's one big issue with that method. One that I've experienced often.
You often fall asleep at a random position. Tjis is especially true if you're holding a smartphone, as it causes your body -mostly your arms- to go limp at awkward positions. As a result, you end up with a bit of pain if you remain like that for the rest of your night.
I want to participate in such studies if they investigate this. I watch CZcams videos too 30-60 minutes before sleeping. As long as they are not stimulating videos, I usually have a good night sleep
Night shift for phones. Also for PC users. f.lux is fantastic. based on your timezone changes your screen to a WARM light
But what about sleeping with a small light on?
I came usually fall asleep when watching CZcams before bed. I am kinda feeling myself nodding off as i type. So likely goin to bed after this video lol
I love it how I’m watching this before I go to bed 😂
Best thing I did for my sleep was purchase a Wenatex mattress. Expensive unless you notice it’s already outlasted two high quality inner spring mattresses!
11:45 “that’s a cool fact!” “Oh it’s 10:30” Yayy….
@9:20 (ish) surely this depends on preference. I like a cool environment with no draft. But those who like a draft could have a warmer environment
Blue light from screens affecting sleep is a misinterpretation of the data. Much more important is to get a lot of light on the middle of the day..the amount of light entering the eye from screens is not really sufficient to significantly stimulate the melanopsin system. The real issue is sitting in the office midday - which is 1000 - 10000 times dimmer than outside. So insufficient signals are sent to the brain to tell us when is the midday peak.
Speaking about sleep i'm quite surprised that you don't cover the effect of having sex or masturbating before sleeping, as most of men i know (including my self) do this as a sleeping tablet when they have a random insomnia attack.
Best tip. Don’t watch this video 6 hours before bedtime: the aggravating, irrelevant, and distracting “music” will put you on edge for hours.
I never heard of scientific research on weed and sleep, sometimes I feel it helps, other times no, depending on the amount, less usually is better for sleeping, and also, whenever I quit smoking for a few days, dreaming gets realy vivid.
Interesting. Everyone I have known with major sleep apnea sleeps mostly on their back, which goes against the research.
insane how bloody complex biology and psychology is, but atleast it's objective and humans can mostly measure it I guess
I've found it's a lot easier to just take melatonin before going to bed, rather than messing around with all this. Sleeping much better now!
I do not use melatonin before bed, it gives me extremely vivid dreams and I tend to feel unrested at night because my dreams are so active.
I sleep but tend to spend the entire night involved in what ever activity I dreamed about. I wake up still wanting to finish whatever I started in my sleep
honestly, the light part, we as humans already screwed it up too much, at a normal nighttime we are at home with lights everywhere.
How much earlier should I exercise before bed if i shouldn't do it right before but only find the time then sadly
I usually have more solid sleep when drinking alcohol than i do when not drinking alcohol.
my message was deleted (i guess it's because i was linking studies), but bottom line is: best position to sleep with less apnea/snoring is on the side, as shown by different studies
or you just wear a sleeping mask in bed while a podcast is playing. That way the monitor isn't shining in your eyes in the night and the pesky sunrise doesn't wake you up so early(before noon)
So it turned out the whole video was against my routine,its good the video got uploaded on right time to make some habitual changes
Yeah I work a labor-intensive job from 4pm-10pm, don’t eat until I get home, usually only shower in the mornings, and we keep the thermostat around 74F cause AC bills are expensive. I’m doing literally everything this video tells me not to do out of necessity :/
Scrolling on my phone before bed makes me go to sleep
My night routine? Ha! Joke's on you, Debunked, I don't do any of these things.
Mommy always told me that I should put away the phone and other electronics for an hour. I'm hoping to do that. ^^
My mum told me exactly the same x
You make sure you let your mommy know I said hello and do me a favor and see if she's decided on a name for your new baby sister. thanks chief!
Thanks for the video! Has always it was very instructive. However, as a physio I totally disagree with the part talking about the good position for sleeping. There isn't bad or good posture : the best mouvement is the next one ! And it's perfect because you move during sleep. Try to put a pillow between your knees at night and see if it stay until the morning. Not sure that's work very well...
If your shower is 3-4 minutes long, you probably aren't taking good care of your hair lol.
Uh boy, I am currently drinking and eating about an hour before I sleep while watching this.
When it comes to fitness, it's the thought that counts.
Well, I think, I'm a fat ass...
Falling asleep to this video as I type
I always get longer relaxing sleep when I sleep with socks on and somehow I always get short quality sleep with the least clothing I can have
Probably your body having fluctuating inner tempature due to the lack of clothing.
@@jyoster6447 are you trying to say hes too cold?
Same!
@@LR-vw8yu Consistent body temperature is something that shouldn't be ignored.
Me too, plus ear plugs.
"What people think is more important than what people do." AKA The placebo effect
Exercise makes my sleep worse. My oxygen deprived sore as shit muscles make me fidget and keep me awake.
It turns out watching this video is keeping me from sleeping
Oops 😬
avoid looking light 1 hour before bed is impossible. I couldn't sit in my bed doing nothing for 1 hour xd
Can you make next video about
Differents between
Driving with 2 wheelers 🏍️.
and 4 wheelers 🚗
Which one is good?
From an environmental perspective or to be the fastest, or the most powerful?
Yeah, the difference is that one has a whole two more wheels than the other one.
@@DebunkedOfficial Yes,
So We can understand advantage and disadvantage by all these reasons
And then we can prepare ourselves to buy or use our vehicles.
Shit, i eat mostly 1 or 2 hours, around 23:00, before i go to bed. And of course i watch some funny memes in bed...
But i sleep pretty well. Especially since i wake up at 8 in the morning and got this time regulary.
In the past i did go between 3:00 or 4:00 in the night in bed. Shitty stuff.
Between 60 and 67 Fahrenheit? That's freezing!
I regularly wake up shivering cold with a body temperature of 95 degrees. I have to sleep with multiple layers, a hoodie and multiple blankets in order to get to sleep and stay asleep. Cold is not your friend. Better go back to the drawing boards on that little white lie!
Nope. I can eat, drink coffee or just about anything else and I can fall asleep in less than 5 minutes.
Sleeping on my back is weird
I agree, I lay there for a while trying it but end up on my side.
Lol I agree. Although, I always fall asleep on my side and wake up on my back.
Me who's watching this video in bed.
Damn I have to wait an hour to sleep, oh well I let me go to the next video to pass time
Watching this wide awake ⏰️ at 4 a.m.
😬 Go to sleep! 😆
But I'm confused about the phone light part. Idk if this comment will get any response, but it's worth a tru. So the issue is the light tricking your brain into thinking it's daytime, right? But even if I don't use my phone there's still my bedside lamp which is a source of light. I doubt there's that many people sitting in absolute darkness doing nothing an hour before bed time. So why's the phone light bad by my bedside lamp ok?
I go to sleep on my side yet wake up on my back... what that mean?
Funnny I’m watching this just before going to bed😂
Stop! ✋😆
What about falling asleep in front of the TV?
Going to bed after shower is so satisfying.
I've done all of these in the span of a week
67F?! 🤣 You paying my A/C bill?!
I sleep on my stomach and don't have any problems with it.
"Any amount of light is bad for sleep "well what about the moon
Shower before bed for hygiene? There are still tons of patients who think bathing removes their natural oil. They think their stench is an 'aphrodisiac' scent.
If I am the least bit chilly I can not fall asleep at all. If I get chilly when I am already asleep I will wake up.
Watching at 10pm eating peach cobbler
65 degrees? That is much to cold for me, I keep my house at 77 at night and sleep very comfy. anything under 70 is to cold
I don't tailor my fluid intake to time of day, and despite that, I have no difficulty sleeping through the night. Oh, and 95%+ of my fluid intake is just water.
So… no activities before bed, but what‘s up with the typical bedroom activity? Should you have sex only in the morning? But i‘m not really awake until my lunch break 🤨
My phone keeps running in the background even after I'm asleep 😅😅
So long as you’re not looking at the screen 👌
I use CZcams to sleep. Bring those scientists and make them watch fbi files before bed then we'll talk
This is fascinating, especially when learning about it just before you go to sleep
i Workout before bed and i sleep like a baby.
I WAS LITTLERY gonna exercise a bit before sleeping for like the first time in my life, and I said after this video ☠️ well not anymore
😆 sorry, something as simple as a few stretches before bed should be OK, but save the exercising for the morning 👌
Rate my sleep:
Every night, I play the guitar from 11 - 1am then smoke a minimum of 3 cigarettes till 3 am either working in my computer as I overthink about my crush who friend zoned me... Then have a troubled sleep till 10 am then continue on with the day, until the cycle repeats.
I look like a panda bear with dark circles over my eyes.
Idk about ur sleep but no one can friend zone you, you can only put yourself in the friendzone, so stop that if you feel like its taking away from your sleep
And to people that dont understand what that means it feels like im trying to be philosophical or something but im really just stating the obvious
@@LR-vw8yu Right on. I'd also add that humans have this one crucial detail they call "emotions". Something to consider.
bad sleep should not be your biggest concern. your biggest concern should be your neighbours murdering you.
1:49 where the other 48 percent at
*laughs in above 26°C in my bedroom*
🥵
