Sleep like a healthy diet is an important pillar of well being. Good sleep usually equates to good health and is a natural remedy for most ailments. However, 40 per cent of people suffer from sleep deprivation; this occurs in people who do not achieve enough regular sleep i.e. usually 7 and 8 hours per night.

Sleep deprivation can occur for a variety of reasons such as:

• pain
• insomnia
• obstructive sleep apnoea
• restless legs syndrome

Typical symptoms that result from being sleep deprived include:
• Irritability
• Poor concentration
• Nausea
• Memory and thinking problems
• Disorientation
• Hallucinations

These symptoms often lead to chronic disease such as diabetes, obesity, problems with immunity and neurology.
