Today's Solutions

Many solutions exist today for sleep disorders and sleep deprivation. Medicine is a very popular and widely accepted solution that works effectively. Creating standard schedules for sleeping and waking up can be very helpful in ensuring enough quality sleep, but many people in today's world have problems with rigid schedules in their lives. Avoiding exercise, food, and naps during the late afternoon and night may be effective but most people enjoy late night dinners, snacks, and desserts along with late night activity.

Sleeping in a comfortable environment is very important- it has a direct effect on the quality and duration of any sleep period. However, a comfortable environment can be taxing on the average budget, and many people have trouble seeing direct benifets of a more comfortable bed. Tracking sleeping habits also may be important, but without many immediate effects people can lose interest in it or not even start.

Many things must be done to solve the problem of sleep deprivation. Large, high quality, long term studies of sleep, sleep deprivation, dreams, disease, and their relationships should be taken by multiple researchers/organizations to find a wealth of conclusive data. Scientists should use that data to create more effective, less addictive medicines. Studies on the effects of genetics on sleep disorders should also be taken. Effects on a large range of foods should be taken along with in-depth studies of alcohol and caffeine's effects on sleep deprivation.

These things could finally cast light on sleep deprivation and more possible cures. Deep, involved studies could result in direct benifets in the population of America and the planet. Higher qualities of sleep across the country and the world could mean higher qualities of workmanship and production. Sleep may be one of the most important things in the world, and one that is the most unknown.
