Episode notes
Deep Sleep Loss Is The Core Aging Problem
- Deep sleep and stress are the two biggest drivers of age-related sleep decline.
- Losing deep sleep and increased stress together fragment sleep and reduce restorative quality.
Use Wearables To Track Trends, Not Exact Values
- Use wearables to track sleep trends night-to-night rather than expect lab accuracy.
- Focus on long-term pattern changes to test supplements, temperature, and habits.
Sleep Cooler But Comfortably So
- Keep your bedroom cool enough to prevent overheating and improve sleep continuity.
- Ensure you can still fall asleep comfortably; being too cold can also delay sleep onset.
