How Insomnia Impacts the Body Physically
Why is it that women could be more susceptible to insomnia than men? Well I think that that's a subject of great debate. Certainly there are conditions that seem to influence women more than men. And those are some of the conditions that are under hormonal regulation. So women are much more likely to experience symptoms that will feed into insomnia like restless leg syndrome. In part that’s because women aremuch more likely to have low iron levels. We know that iron is very important for restless leg syndrome and other psychological issues such as anxiety or depression.
