Sleep to a Better Health



The sleeping habits that you create can turn your health for better or worse. Getting enough sleep daily is necessary to energize your body for the next day. On average, the human body needs about 8-9 hours of sleep a day. Sleeping more or less than 8-9 hours a day is discouraged. To make sure you get a good sleep avoid watching tv or going on the computer an hour to 2 hours before your bedtime.
