  Deprived sleep also leads to increased dementia. Never realized how critical sleep is until I read, the spinal fluid and fluid around the brain literally cleans the brain

  Why do people feel no obligation to follow the title of their videos.  The title is "how to optimize your sleep".  I'm half way in and all they have talked about is the importance of sleep.   Okay, now I've watched the entire fkn video and there is not a single word about how to optimize your sleep -  as is claimed in the title.

  The only &quot;optimization&quot; trick he reveals is on the number of hours of sleep you should have. <br><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1050">17:30</a> if you sleep 6h/night during 1 week, your blood sugar is so disrupted that you&apos;re considered pre-diabetic. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1080">18:00</a> yearly study called &quot;daylight savings time&quot; performed on 1.6 bio people : in the spring when we loose 1h of sleep we see a 24% increase in heart attacks, and 21% reduction in autumn. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1020">17:00</a> 1 4h night= 70% drop in critical anti-cancer cells <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1190">19:50</a> deep sleep : slows down the nervous system (heart rate lowers, cortisol drops down), turns into immune stimulation mode, restock the armament of your immune system. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=2440">40:40</a> infected people are more sleepy. The immune system signals to the brain that you need sleep to fight the disease. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1580">26:20</a> in all psychiatric conditions, sleep is disturbed.<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1620">27:00</a> deep emotional brain centers erupt when you&apos;re sleep deprived, becomes up to 60% more reactive. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_yKw7VC08&amp;t=1740">29:00</a> lack of sleep is predictive of suicidal thoughts and attempts.

  I go to sleep quite easily, but the problem is waking up after four hours and can&apos;t fall asleep again, I know how important sleep is, but I kneed solutions, I was disappointed to only hear how bad lack of sleep is with very little solutions.

  I think everybody&apos;s different, and require a different amount of sleep and even then it depends on the period in your life and what you do during the day... so I just try to find my own balance
