SENIOR SLEEP HEALTH
OCTOBER 16, 2023 WRITTEN BY: DR. KELLE
Why is it that some seniors can effortlessly drift off to dreamland and wake up refreshed, while others toss and turn every night, battling insomnia and fatigue despite trying countless remedies?
For years, people chalked it up to age or stress, believing there was nothing they could do about it.
However, a recent breakthrough from sleep experts has shed new light on the subject. It turns out, the quality of sleep you experience may all be linked to the neurotransmitter, GABA in the brain.
Due to a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors, levels of this crucial neurotransmitter can decrease by up to 40, particularly affecting seniors who are struggling with sleep issues.
According to a study from a sleep discovery lab in the US, elevating levels of GABA can kickstart a deeper and more restful sleep cycle, leading to a night of uninterrupted sleep.
A pioneering lab in the US discovered Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA), a natural ingredient that elevates levels of this sleep-enhancing neurotransmitter by up to 50% within just a couple of hours.
The best part? This Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) is completely natural and not a medication, which means it doesn't have the usual side effects commonly associated with sleep aids, such as strong side effects, addiction or dangerous interactions with prescription drugs.
In today's article, we delve deep into this groundbreaking discovery to assess its true potential. Could this be the sleep solution seniors have been waiting for?
How Poor Sleep Quality Can Affect Seniors' Health, Happiness, and Relationships
Whether it's tossing and turning all night, waking up multiple times, or struggling to fall asleep, seniors struggle for quality sleep is real.
When seniors suffer from poor sleep, it's not just their own mood that takes a hit. Family members often notice the irritability, forgetfulness, and even depression that lack of sleep can cause; which can then effect the family's mood and happiness.
According to a recent study, lack of sleep can make a person look and feel significantly older than they are, contributing to a range of health issues that can affect their quality of life.
It gets worse: research indicates that poor sleep among seniors increases the risk of chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and even cognitive decline.
The bottom line? Poor sleep isn't just an inconvenience; it's a serious issue that can profoundly impact a senior's health, social interactions, and overall quality of life. But there's a silver lining—poor sleep isn't inevitable as we age.
What's the Real Reason Behind Sleepless Nights for Seniors
Most people assume that erratic sleep patterns are a natural part of aging, and there's nothing much to be done. But what separates seniors who sleep like babies from those who toss and turn all night? Let's start with the fundamentals—what exactly governs our sleep?
Sleep is regulated by various hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain, with GABA being one of the most prominent. GABA levels fluctuate throughout the day and are largely influenced by our circadian rhythms.
Around 70% of seniors have lower levels of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA), affecting their sleep quality and duration. And herein lies the problem—our sleep cycles are not just influenced by age but also by hormonal and chemical imbalances in the brain.
This crucial neurotransmitter has shown a significant impact on sleep quality in various studies. Boosting GABA levels in the brain directly enhances sleep quality and increases REM cycles.
By naturally boosting this neurotransmitter, seniors can extend their quality sleep hours. Instead of spending nights counting sheep, they will find themselves getting longer, deep and refreshing sleep.
After extensive research, Fix My Sleep created "Deep Sleep" specifically for seniors, a nightly all natural and plant-based sleep aid tailored for seniors with clinically supported doses of proven ingredients, such as L-Glycine, Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and L-Tyrosine, ensuring maximum effectiveness.
