    Sleep has a significant impact on your health. I want to cover the top things that can prevent you from getting a good night’s sleep.
    There’s a direct correlation between your sleep and overall heart function and longevity.
    A lack of sleep can affect your blood sugar levels and increase cravings and hunger. Poor sleep can also raise your cortisol and affect your mood.
    The top things that prevent you from sleeping:
    1. High cortisol
    2. Low vitamin D
    3. Low calcium
    4. Low magnesium
    5. Low potassium
    6. A bad sleeping environment
    7. Taking melatonin
    8. Blue light and EMF
    9. Low vitamin B12
    10. Low vitamin B1
    11. Low zinc
    12. Stimulants
    Cutting out sugar and going on a low-carb diet is crucial to help you start sleeping better. Also, avoid eating too late or overeating to help support better sleep. Another great tip is to focus on your breathing to help you fall asleep fast.

    I am 61. I have followed your advice for years, but my sleep was severely compromised due to stress, a lot of coffee (10 cups a day, ouch) and playing on my phone at night. Two months ago, I had a seizure. It turns out I have a meningioma brain tumor. I am having surgery in 2024 to remove it. The tumor has likely been there for years, but the stress and lack of sleep have made my situation worse. Do everything on this list.

    I am glad that Dr. Berg is explaining the causes of not sleeping. This has been my life story, having insomnia. It is very difficult for me to fall sleep. Most of the time, I am awake all night, and when I say all night is true, it is the entire night. have melatonin but I am reluctant to take it. My insomnia is bad, awful. .
    I refuse to take any sleeping pills, and I will not.
    Thank you Dr. Berg for bringing up this very important subject, it is appreciated.

      I had the same problem, which actually came back recently after getting burned out from a year of overworking. It would take me 2-4 hours to fall asleep, and even when I would, the quality was terrible and I never felt fully rested. Going through my busy day with a fraction of my cognitive function in zombie mode was absolute hell. For me it started from a panic attack brought on by a failed attempt at doing keto. The water loss caused electrolyte imbalance, which caused me to have a panic attack over something stupid which sent me to the ER. When I got back I realized I lost the ability to fall asleep, which drove more panic, which eventually developed into severe sleep anxiety. It got to the point where just the thought of sleep triggered fight-or-flight, so anytime I'd go to bed, my heart would start racing due to cognitive association, and I wouldn't be able to properly relax to enter sleep. It was torture.
      I was eventually able to slowly fix it with no meds by carefully watching my sugar intake, doing a lot of cognitive behavioral therapy, and supplementing a TON of magnesium (upwards of 1000mg /day) due to the increased anxiety and stress. Remember a NORMAL person can get by on a measly 400mg of magnesium a day (some experts like Dr. Carolyn Dean or Morley Robbins would argue that the RDA isn't optimal btw), but when you're going through extreme stress, you need more! MagSRT or Magnesium Breakthrough are excellent supplements I'd personally recommend. Magnesium lotion is good too. Not to mention adding mag-rich foods to your diet.
      The number one thing I learned on the cognitive side was to remember to NOT STRESS about not sleeping. Do your best to truly internalize this. Don't get angry, panicky, or upset, because it only makes it worse. Train your mind to remain calm and not judge (this is where practicing meditation helps tremendously). On my worst days I'd sit there 3-4 hours, remaining calm. Just close your eyes and let your body do what it needs to do, because the more you "chase" sleep, the more elusive it becomes.
      You'll find that you tend to "cross over" into sleep when you're thinking of something in your head or are distracted. If you're FOCUSED on sleep it becomes counterintuitive because to your brain you're "focusing" and it will try to keep you up.
      It's also vital to remember that just laying in bed with your eyes closed and resting (even when awake) does some good, so if you're exhausted, you can take comfort in knowing that just laying there will help, although obviously it's no replacement for actual sleep.

    The three things that stop me getting a good night's sleep are:
    1. staying up too late watching videos on youtube,
    2. the neighbour's dogs barking, &
    3. The pair of ravens nesting in a Norfolk Pine tree across the road start crowing around dawn.
    I was waking every hour or two through the night, but I am now sleeping at least 4 hours straight, and often over 6 hours since I've made changes suggested by Dr Berg and others.

    I have sleep apnea, and I find it difficult to sleep with my CPAP machine. I would be very grateful if you could do a video reviewing the various devices that are mouth pieces which claim to be able to keep the airway open. If you can’t name specific devices, that’s understandable, but at least cover the topic of whether (or not) these type of devices CAN work and, if so, the kind of features to look for. Having a good night’s sleep will improve my mood, my heart health, help me lose weight - and prevent random elbows to the ribs in the middle of the night. PLEASE, this is extremely important.
