Sleep plays a pivotal role in maintaining our health. Lack of sleep has been linked to triggering a host of ailments. Experts believe that prolonged sleep deprivation may even trigger loss of memory and cognitive decline. In a recent study, experts have linked lack of proper sleep with inability to conceive. A team of Japanese researchers studied women who reported difficulty in getting pregnant. These women participants were examined on their alcohol intake, use of sleeping pills, sleep quality and number of hours they slept. It was concluded that women who reported no sleep disturbances had 62.9% chances of successful egg fertilisation.
Sleep disturbances may occur due to many reasons, ranging from stress to even depression. While maintaining proper sleep routine may help a great deal in keeping sleep disturbances at bay, some herbal remedies may help treat severe insomnia and induce deep sleep.
