Anyone have experience tracking sleep?
Such as what tech you use, supplements, time of actual sleep, any tricks/tips in environment, foods prior etc. I've heard people doing things like temp/pulse which I have not done yet.
I got a wireless wristband tracker that I have been using the the past week for sleep.
Mainly because I am not waking up refreshed even after 7-9 hours of rest.
Only ever done 1 sleep study back 16 years ago or so... and did not get me much results.
I have asked my DR to book me an appointment for sleep apnea but that takes a long wait I was told. So decided to track my own sleep.
Well, after tracking the past 5 nights I learned a few new things that seem to need some fixing.
-On average I was only sleeping 3-4.5 hours for approx an 8 hour rest. Had no idea actual sleep time was so low but it makes sense to waking up not refreshed.
-Woke up around 3-4 times average.
-restless around 20-26 times average. Cannot even tell this is happening.
Did try a supplement or 2 most nights such as zinc/magnesium, melatonin, aspirin.
Going to try some pregnenolone, cypro soon.
Any ideas on what might be causing my restless sleep, or medication/supps to try?
