Are You Getting Enough Sleep?

Did you Know? Studies have shown that the lack of sleep and the susceptibilty to colds go hand in hand. With cold and flu season pretty much on top of us, getting enough rest is so important. In a recent study from the Archives of Internal Medicine, 153 men and women were exposed to cold viruses and their sleep patterns were tracked. In a 2 week period of time those that got 5 hours of sleep or less were 3 times more likely to get sick than those that got 8 hours of sleep on an average. So it seems that sleep and immunity are linked, other studies show that mammals that require the most sleep also produce higher levels of disease fighting white blood cells. With all this being said, take those vitamins, drink your herbal teas but do try and get lots of rest as well.
