Does my mattress have fiberglass in it?<\/h2>\n

\"ScottIf you\u2019re sleeping on a Restonic mattress, you can be assured your mattress does NOT have fiberglass in it. This week on TikTok, a man revealed he\u2019s been sleeping on a fiberglass-filled mattress that was making him sick. Fiberglass, a material made of glass and reinforced plastic and is often used as a flame retardant, says Eric Rodriguez, the CEO of Innerbody Research. \u201cFiberglass inside a mattress is okay if it stays in.\u201d Read more on news.yahoo.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Please note: you won’t find fiberglass in Restonic mattresses. Fiberglass \u2013 if it’s used \u2013 is usually contained in a sock under the quilt cover of the mattress. If you suspect your mattress may have fiberglass in it, do not open the zipper and contact the manufacturer as soon as possible. The manufacturer can be found on the law tag of your mattress. <\/em><\/p>\n

How \u2018circadian hacking\u2019 can help with far more than sleep<\/h2>\n

Deep winter is traditionally associated with hibernation but for many of us, it\u2019s a time for fractured sleep patterns. This is because our circadian rhythms are regulated by daily light exposure, which is in scant supply in the winter months. Circadian science is relatively new but we know our body clocks are calibrated by a central \u2013 and very individual \u2013 circadian clock. And if we can figure out the optimal time to eat, wake or exercise, for example, we can change behavior to improve our overall health \u2013 and especially our sleep health.

\"\"How much sleep do you need each night?<\/h2>\n

You’ve probably heard the popular recommendation to aim for 8 hours of sleep a night. That recommendation may not be right for everyone though. The guideline is based on observational studies with self-reported data, and people aren’t always accurate when determining how much \u2013 or how well \u2013 they slept the night before. So how much sleep should you get each night? Read more on yahoolife.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Moving on from melatonin? Might be time to try the dietary supplement, GABA<\/h2>\n

When you’ve tried every sleep remedy in the book, from bedtime yoga to melatonin, and you can’t seem to knock out at night, gamma-aminobutyric acid might do the trick. It’s an amino acid naturally found in the body and promotes a calming effect. GABA is often taken as dietary supplement, but it has a track record showing it may be a good alternative sleep aid to melatonin. It only affects the early sleep stages, and leaves you feeling more awake in the morning as a result, whereas some people claim popular sleep supplements like melatonin make them groggy.
