The Sleep of the Portuguese
No. 139 MAY 2024
Did you know that when you fall asleep late, you spend less time in deep sleep is less and that can't be recovered, even if you sleep longer in the morning? And that if you sleep badly, diet doesn't help? Or that adolescents have natural difficulties in falling asleep before 11 pm and a child that is not getting enough hours of sleep is at serious physical and cognitive risk?
This book explains what sleep is, how it is organised and how it changes and develops, from the first months of life to old age, and what disorders can affect it. It analyses the sleep patterns of the Portuguese, which are often unsatisfactory, and identifies strategies to improve them.
What you have here is a handbook for sleeping well, a basic source of physical and mental health.
