If we are going paleoanthropological then a "full night sleep" doesn't make sense. We never used to sleep 8 hours a night before the industrial revolution! There is research that it is probably not ideal at all for achieving maximum time in REM, for instance. The prayer cycle of the church makes no sense if you don't account for the ancestral sleep pattern, for instance. Also many many literary works seem to take for granted that we had waking hours in the night and a "second sleep". We are supposed to sleep two or several shorter sleep sessions. That is the main reason sleep disorders are so prevalent in modern days.

Funny how the 1-block sleep and long uninterrupted wakefulness myth came about the same time as the 3-meals a day with large breakfast disaster. Both engineered to make us more "productive", and both failures.

Gotta hit the road before dawn, arrive at work 1 hr later, gotta be at the desk asap. However, best practice at night: 1. hot soak in tub at 8 p.m. with only a candle for light. 2.Light-blocking window curtain. 3. Melatonin helps. 4. Magnesium definitely helps. 5. Noisy box fan running all night. 6. 50 yr old push-button alarm clock. No light. 7. Mypillow! 8. Read a Psalm by the lowest wattage lamp possible, choose a verse to meditate on, snap off the light, and keep repeating that verse. Concentrate on every word. Keeps the mind from chasing squirrels. Also... take Vitamin D only in the morning. It works against melatonin. Of course.

Thanks so much! I’m so glad you talked about this subject, Dr. Berry! I’ve dealt with frequent bouts of insomnia in my adulthood, and have tried many of these things you listed-but not ALL of them at the same time! So, this is a wonderful blueprint for lasting success. BUT, I would add one more thing, after finding out how much the EMF/RF output of so many of our electronic devices has apparently also been affecting me. They don’t seem to bother my husband, but they certainly play havoc with my sleep pattern. We live between several military bases, and our bedroom is “loaded” because of my hubby’s C-pap and Oxygen machines, as well as an air conditioner right now, electric baseboard heaters during the winter, electrical sockets on each side of our bed’s headboard, an electric clock, and my cellphone playing white noise rain sounds every night. Yikes! I didn’t know about that issue until recently, and added small EMF/RF protection stickers to all of those things a few days ago. FINALLY, I have slept well every night since, which had been only an occasional experience before! I will now be combining together every one of the 15 steps you outlined, and KNOW it will help immensely in me getting the deep sleep my poor body desperately needs. Thank you forever! P.S. I forgot to mention earlier, that I got an EMF/RF meter on Amazon, after reading about the health issues they can cause some people, and found out what was going on with all the electrical stuff in our bedroom. I’ll check the rest of appliances in the house also, but it’s what was going on with RFs, especially in the bedroom, that was the most concentrated and apparently part of my insomnia triggers. I don’t know what your opinion of this is, but with the vast explosion of electrical devices and radiowaves of all kinds in a little over a century, I’m fairly certain that it has been causing all kinds of issues in our bodies that our ancestors never had to deal with!

I have had poor sleep every single night of my life for many years now. I have followed all the tips (though I can't do the first-thing-in-the-morning sun because I'm up several hours before the sun is!). I live in south Florida, and as it is, even with my AC set at 76 it runs quite a bit. There is NO WAY I can get the temp in my room down to 69 degrees or less! So I fall asleep easily enough, but I always wake up after a few hours both to pee and also because I am so thirsty I can hardly swallow. My eyes are often dry too. I keep hoping that if I do keto long enough (it's been 5 months now) that things in my body will correct themselves enough that this will get better. TY Dr. Berry for all your great videos!

Problem is that I don't have air conditioning so I'm getting up at 2:30am so I can start work by 4-5am and stop before it gets too hot. Sun doesn't come up until after I've been working for a while. I do stop and go for an hour walk during my "lunch" break sometime between 7am and 10am (depends on how hot it is, earlier on hotter days). I'm going to bed at 6pm, so it's still light out and I need to have a fan at night so can't do black out curtains. I usually do an eye cover instead. In addition, I work out at 3am before work. Also, am I the only one that any kind of shower (hot or cold) wakes me up? That's not to say they aren't good suggestions. They just assume people are working daylight hours and live somewhere where they can have their bedroom consistently in the 60s. I guess my point is these aren't all easy for everyone. Sometimes tradeoffs need to be made.

I'll probably go back to a later schedule when it's consistently cooler out. However, in the winter it's still going to be dark when I get up...and I'm not going to go outside if it's subzero out.

Will start a proper human diet and implementing these steps you've mentioned here and hopefully come off the tablets.

@sodas32 3 года назад

Might also just be metabolic, I was over exercising, under eating and not getting enough carbs which eventually lead to nutritional deficiencies etc (at the time thought I was being healthy)I was putting my body in a constant catabolic state which will cause the body to stay awake and alert, as it is meant to. Think about what you are doing and what messages you are sending to your central nervous system via the way you eat exercise and live...you might be putting your body in survival mode and your body is doing what its meant to be doing. I cut back and changed the way I exercise opting for more anabolic promoting activities with ample recovery time, ate more frequent balanced meals and also allowed myself to take naps. It has taken a long time for my body to balance out and recover, I now don't even need to bother with or think about any form of sleep hygiene, I get tired and sleep.

I have one... if you're struggling, try to get tested for sleep apnea. It can be difficult for some to get used to using a CPAP machine, but if it's set to the right pressure it will make a world of difference. I have central sleep apnea, which isn't very common. My brain doesn't send a breathing signal at times. Yeah, I was shocked, lol! I assumed it was being caused by the neuroimmune disease I have, but I've realized I might have craniocervical instability and/or tethered cord. Regardless of the cause, CPAP does help.

Let me share what Really helped me: 1. I quit coffee completely, yes, even my "wake-up reward" cup. 2. That helped but the best was finding hypnosis videos on youtube by Michael Sealey. They just work. Other hypnosis or background noise to sleep vids I found to be useless. 3. Take zinc before bed (you might be deficient). It releases or helps your body use its own melatonin, and no problem getting the right amount as with melatonin supplements. Why not just take Benedryl? It is a type of AntiCholinergic and causes DEMENTIA!!! (As per Dr Berry's other video). "These agents inhibit the parasympathetic nervous system by selectively blocking the binding of ACh to its receptor in nerve cells. The nerve fibers of the parasympathetic system are responsible for the involuntary movement of smooth muscles present in the gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, lungs, sweat glands, and many other parts of the body." As if dementia wasn't bad enough.

Thanks so much! Already knew some of these but the rest I'll definitely be putting into action. There are a few other tips I've heard - do you think any of them are valid? 1. Raising the head of your bed a few inches to create a gradient, so the cerebro-spinal fluid is acted on by gravity and is pulled away from the head. 2. Making a to-do list and/or journaling in the evening, so that you don't lie awake thinking too much. 3. Not drinking coffee until about 45 minutes after waking up in the morning. The logic is that if you have coffee too early, it bypasses the body's natural waking up mechanisms, weakening them. 4. Taking a reishi mushroom supplement before bed. 4 Sygmatic does one, and it seemed to help me a bit. Some people swear by it, and say it makes a huge difference.

@Isabelle574-88 9 дней назад

My sleep quality went down when I started carnivore and dropped alcohol (and changed nothing else in my routines), it's been 2 months now.... why ?

Thank you so much for such a great video. I just wanted to mention that I was going to purchase the melatonin recommended but it contains sucralose. Looks like it didn't before but they added it to the ingredients. For those avoiding sugars especially at night may not work.

First night I did not take my ZZZZ Quill or Tylenol and it is 3am and here I am. This video gives me several things I could change. I just bought a Nespresso machine and I have been going a little crazy with it. Saw another video that says Lipitor can cause Dementia, how do you get a doctor to take you off that?

@TBI-Firefighter-451 Год назад

without my 3 am coffee I can't go back to sleep and fan noise is a must have for a good nights sleep. Melatonin gave me really bad Freddy on Elm Street Dreams, never tried Gaba but Magnesium does help. Thanks Doc

@dr berry - The last supplement you said Magnesium, which comes in many different forms. If someone take Citrate, for example... upset stomach and bad poops. If someone takes Glycine, it's like melatonin. Which form of magnesium are you actually suggesting for sleep?

@samphonnetgamgee5625 3 месяца назад

I want to buy Melatonin, but I don't know which dose I should buy (39 insomniac with dsps)?? "1-5mg" is a big dose span.

@avimae4225 4 года назад

I do everything you have mentioned in your video. It still does not work. I've been diagnosed with 6 autoimmune disease and a rare, orphan, central nervous system disease. I can take 2 prescription trazodone, 2 10 mg melatonin, 1 Etodalac,100 mg of CBD and still not fall asleep. My neurologist claims to have never met anybody that can do that. His wife, who is also my sleep medicine doctor says the very same thing. I have literally bed every one of my doctors for extensive hormone testing, etc. They have all refused. (Endocrinologist, sleep medicine, neurologist, GP, OBGYN, neuro-opthamologist, a neurosurgeon) I have been in sleep deprivation mode for decades. There are days when I don't know if I'm coming or going. And frankly, I am tired of being tired. Blessings to all.

Yeah but what do you do when you have a neck injury and you're in constant pain? Even I am still on the keto diet but since injuring my neck, it's been hard to go sleep like I used to because I either wake up in pain or I wake up with heart palpitations. I have magnesium citrate but since having my injury I've been very scared to take it. I would love to go for a walk but the neck injury caused me to have some weakness in my limbs and if I walk for too long I get very dizzy and feel like I am being hanged upside and especially when I'm in a position for too long rather it is laying, sitting or standing. I struggle to walk long distance. Everything was going great until I got injured by putting a stupid hula hoop together. I would be lucky if I could get over 5 hours of sleep per night now. Before that I was sleeping great! Now everything went in the gutter!

Some suggest adding some carbs in carnivore can help improve sleep because it has something to do with amino acid tryptophan in meat? Has anyone try this? I have problem staying asleep always wake up at 3 or 4am. But my sleep problem also happened before when I wasn't carnivore. Basically I have no improvement in my sleep regardless of diet.

I just overcame a long bout of insomnia by ~stopping~ all of my supplements cold turkey (except D3, K2 & Magnesium). Anecdotal, but true. I think it was amino acids causing the insomnia.

@keviniverson5569 4 года назад

This is great info; thanks!👍Acupressure treatment/stretching certain specific areas of the body before going to bed is very relaxing and seems to counter act cortisol for about 5 hours anyway. See Dr. Eric Berg's acupressure videos; helped me a lot.

@maryannm762 11 месяцев назад

I am totally blind and suffer from non-24 sleep wake disorder. I cannot see light. I live low carb lifestyle. Is there hope that I can use food and supplements to reset my circadian rhythm instead? Fermented Skate liver oil helped for a while, but results were inconsistent after a year, and only one brand that I no longer wish to use. Many health complications due to cortisol and melatonin being out of sync. I'd love help that is not drugs. Thank you!

@granitemoss1451 4 года назад

Some of these I already do, some of these I need to try. I usually fall asleep decently, but have trouble staying asleep and I sleep very lightly. For example, our bedroom is off the living room. If my spouse forgot to turn off the tv because it 'went to sleep (black screen like it's off but it's not)', it will bring up the home page and hour and a half or so later, and even this sudden light in an adjacent room, without sound, wakes me up. Every.little.thing. seems to wake me up ad it's really terrible sometimes.

@@gretelhance I have children so shutting out the world isn't really an option BUT a sound machine on low and a magnesium supplement have helped immensely. Alos have trained my spouse to make sure TV is OFF off.
