DON'T SLEEP WITH WATCH
Watches can emit a certain level of radioactivity. Though small, but if you wear your watch to bed for a long time, it might have adverse effects on your health.

DON'T SLEEP WITH PHONE
Putting the phone beside your bed or anywhere near you is not encouraged.Though some of us will use phones as alarm clocks, but please put the phone as far as possible. Scientists have proved that electrical items including mobile phone and television sets emit magnetic waves when used.These waves can cause disruptions to our nervous system.Therefore if you need to put your mobile phone near you, switch it off first.

DON'T SLEEP WITH MAKE UP
People who sleep with make up might have skin problems in the long run. Sleeping with make up will cause the skin to have difficulty in breathing and problem in perspiring. You will also need a much longer time to
go into deep sleep.

DON'T SLEEP WITH BRA
Scientists in America have discovered those that wear bras for more than 12 hours have a higher risk of getting breast cancer. So go to bed without it.

DON'T SLEEP WITH OTHERS' WIFE/HUSBAND
You may never wake up again. grin grin shocked shocked

What to avoid

Before bed, what you eat or drink might play a role in your sleeplessness. Here are some foods and beverages to avoid eating before going to sleep.

Caffeine

sleep quality
Many drinks and foods contain caffeine. These include:

Coffee
Some kinds of tea
Chocolate
Energy drinks
Avoid these foods and drinks just before bed.

Alcohol

sleep quality
Alcohol has been used as a sleep aid for quite some time. For certain individuals, drinking is a nightly habit.

We now understand that drinking alcohol is ineffective as a sleep aid. Alcohol is a depressant. Your body produces more adenosine when you consume alcohol.

Adenosine is a sleep-inducing substance.

However, the sleep you get after drinking is disjointed and disrupted. Alcohol inhibits dream sleep (REM). The dream stage of slumber is known as REM.

Drinking alcohol will not provide you with a restful night’s sleep. You may experience symptoms of sleep deprivation following the consumption.

Alcohol consumption may also raise your risk of obstructive sleep apnea. This occurs when you stop breathing for a long period of time during the night. Because alcohol relaxes the airway muscles, it contributes to apnea.

The use of alcoholic beverages to assist with sleep is not advised.

Eating just before bed

sleep quality
Eating a big dinner just before going to bed might cause heartburn at night. Eating spicy foods or tomato-based items may have the same effect.

Insulin is released in response to every meal. This can also help you get awake. It’s a good idea to have your last supper about three hours before going to sleep.

Food and drink do not have a significant impact on sleep. This implies they aren’t likely to have a big influence on your ability to sleep. Caffeine or alcohol consumption before bedtime may keep you up. If you eat the wrong meal too close to bedtime, heartburn can keep you awake as well.
