Sleep Well – be Strong

Many older people don’t get enough sleep, which can them to prevent  risk of serious health problems such as obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, says the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
While sleep patterns do change as people age, disturbed sleep and waking up tired every day aren’t a normal part of aging.
“As we get older, the amount of nightly rest that we need remains the same as that of what we needed when we were younger. However the ability to get the sleep that we need changes. Older people have a hard time getting the sleep they need because of the interference of medical illness, the medications they take for those illnesses, and changes in their biological clock,” Sonia Ancoli-Israel, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine and director of the sleep disorders clinic at the Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, said in a prepared statement.
Ancoli-Israel, who is also co-director of the Laboratory for Sleep and Chronobiology at the UCSD General Clinic Research Center, cited a number of common sleep disorders in the elderly:
Insomnia affects almost half of adults aged 60 and older.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects almost 40 percent of adults, and is more common among older adults. OSA can increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke and cognitive problems.
Restless legs syndrome, which affects more than 20 percent of people aged 80 and older, includes uncomfortable feelings in the legs, such as tingling, or pins and needles.Periodic limb movements cause people to jerk and kick their legs every 20 to 40 seconds during sleep. One study found that about 40 percent of older adults have a least a mild form of this condition.

Older adults who don’t get enough sleep are more likely to feel depressed, have attention and memory problems, excessive daytime sleepiness, more nighttime falls, and to use more over-the-counter or prescription sleep medications.

In order to get a better night’s sleep, older adults should:

Establish a routine sleep schedule.

Avoid using the bed for activities other than sleep or intimacy.

Avoid substances that disturb sleep, such as caffeine and alcohol.

Avoid napping during the day. If you have to nap, limit it to less than one hour and do it no later than 3 p.m.

Develop pre-sleep rituals that help you relax, such as a warm bath, a light snack or a few minutes of reading.

Leave worries behind. Bedtime is a time to relax, not replay the stresses of the day.

Keep your bedroom dark, quiet and a little cool.

If you can’t fall asleep, leave the bedroom and do a quiet activity. Go back to bed only when you’re tired.

Tietam Brown $8.11 If you’re one of those crying-to-your-shrink-cause-your-childhood-was- SO-hard type of people, you should probably read #1 New York Times Bestselling author Mick Foley’s fiction debut, Tietam Brown, for a reality check. Even if you’re not one of them, stop your whining and pick up the damn thing anyway. Atietam Andy Brown is a seventeen year-old with a busted hand, and a missing ear. He’s arrived at his father’s house to start life anew after being raised alternately in foster homes and juvenile detention centers where his life hung by a thread on more than one occasion. With this fresh start in hand he hopes he’s got a shot at completing his childhood like a normal kid. But when he realizes that his father’s favorite activities are naked beer-guzzling weight lifting, and sleeping with his classmate’s mothers, well, let’s just say his prospects for the future are once again dimmed. That is, until he finds out that Terri, the hottest cheerleader in school, likes him. (Nice work, Andy!) Funnier than professional wrestling and smarter than nuclear physics, Tietam Brown is sure to pin you for a three-count to your reading chair.
