In support of National Sleep Awareness Week (March 1-8), we at Res-Q would like to educate you on the importance of a good night’s sleep.
So many of us take a good night’s sleep for granted; In fact, many people glamorize how little sleep they get each night, as if running on only three hours makes them stronger or tougher.

Double-blind placebo controlled study.
According to a study published in The Journal of Sleep Research, melatonin users felt more refreshed in the morning, and fell asleep faster than non-melatonin users. The relevance of using melatonin in this study is that melatonin is the key chemical responsible for our sleep cycle.
The study was conducted on patients with “Delayed sleep phase syndrome.” Delayed sleep phase syndrome is a sleep disturbance of the circadian rhythm. Patients with delayed sleep phase syndrome can’t seem to fall asleep quickly, and when they do fall asleep, it’s not until the middle of the night or early morning, regardless of what time they get up.
