Many thanks to Bijoy John, MD, a board-certified sleep specialist and author of "Nobody's Sleeping: 7 Proven Sleep Strategies for Better Health and Happiness." It's a comprehensive guide for better sleep regardless of age or sleep problem. "Nobody's Sleeping" has a 5-star rating on Amazon and received the 2024 International Impact Book Award for Health.

 

During our 30-minute interview, Dr. Bijoy discusses how alcohol, exercise, cell phone, iPad, other screens, and snoring can affect proper sleep. According to Dr. Bijoy, falling asleep is not like an "on/off" switch. It requires preparation. He shares his tips for preparing for sleep with the acronym "SLEEPNOW."

 

Dr. Bijoy addresses the role of melatonin and medications in treating sleep disorders. He also highlights the physiologic and mental health price of not treating sleep problems.
