The problem we are having today is people that are overweight. Notice I said overweight and not obese. You don&#x27;t have to be obese to have sleep problems. Simply getting your weight down enough can often reduce sleep apnea, which increases the quality of sleep.<p>In addition, <i>when</i> we go to sleep matters, and this can vary, depending on the person.<p>Finally, the amount of light, noise, the mattress, pillow, etc. all matter. Don&#x27;t cheap out, but the most expensive mattress is not guaranteed to be the best. Don&#x27;t sleep on a couch or an uncomfortable mattress.
