Healthy sleeping gadgets

Sleep is a natural part of our life. An average person will spend almost one third of the entire lifetime sleeping. If our sleep pattern gets disturbed for any reason, we will certainly notice the difference.

Healthy sleeping is necessary for a long and healthy life. One research (published in Perspectives in Biological Medicine, 41: 359–390) determined that rats deprived of sleep die within two to three weeks. Even if you manage to get by with not enough sleep, you will definitely experience difficulty concentrating, loss of energy, fatigue and lethargy.

Not getting enough healthy sleep can even be deadly. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in United States, about 100,000 automobile crashes each year result from drivers who were “asleep at the wheel.”

Whenever possible, we should try to get maximum amount of healthy sleep from our time in bed. Some gadgets can help ensure that your sleep is as long and as pleasant as possible.

Sound conditioner is a simple gadget that will mask those problematic and strange noises that keep you awake at night. By generating white noise, this gadget creates a soothing consistent sound conditioned environment for a good night sleep.

Lack of moisture can dry your nasal passages and cause Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a disorder in which breathing is interrupted during sleep. This can cause temporary drops in blood oxygen during the night and increases in carbon dioxide levels, which all leads to frequent partial arousals from sleep. Those frequent arousals result in ineffective sleep and loud snoring.

After a good and healthy night sleep, you will want to wake up without the usual rush and screaming alarm clock. This interesting gadget provides a pleasant and natural way to wake up in the morning. It wakes you up by simulating sunrise. Light gradually increases for 30 minutes before your alarm time and prepares your body to wake up starting your day feeling more energetic.

It is a common misconception that you need less sleep as you grow older. Adults don’t need less sleep, but unfortunately, they often get less sleep. Due to our environment and increased stress levels, many older people have fragile sleep and wake up more often during the night.

These three healthy sleeping gadgets will make you sleep longer, deeper and healthier.
