Are Sleep Issues An Early Sign Of Brain Issues?

Sleep is literally a deep clean for your brain. 🛌

50-70 million U.S. adults have a sleep disorder with insomnia being the most common.

The National Sleep Foundation recommends that adults get between 7-9 hours of sleep every night to maximize health and well being.

35.5% of adults report getting less than 7 hours of sleep each night. 😴

Not getting enough sleep can wreak havoc on your health. “In the short term, a lack of adequate sleep can affect judgment, mood, ability to learn and retain information, and may increase the risk of serious accidents and injury. In the long term, chronic sleep deprivation may lead to a variety of health problems including obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even early mortality.”...................

A new study in the journal Science, reports that “sleep physically washes toxins, including those that can lead to Alzheimer’s from your brain.” Psychiatric and other neurological issues can be linked to a build up of these toxins.

Getting the recommended amount of sleep helps clean away the toxic gunk that builds up in your brain and is crucial to your health and well being. 💪..................

If you are struggling with sleep issues, chiropractic can help!

Chiropractic neutralizes stress on the brain and nervous system allowing your brain to communicate with the body the way it should leading to better sleep habits.

Better sleep habits allows the body to better regenerate and heal therefore leading to better health.

Get adjusted.

Neurobehavioral effects of aspartame consumption. Let’s take a look at some research.

“Aspartame remains one of the most controversial food additives, due to mixed evidence on its neurobehavioral effects. Healthy adults who consumed a study-prepared high-aspartame diet (25 mg/kg body weight/day) for 8 days and a low-aspartame diet (10 mg/kg body weight/day) for 8 days, with a 2-week washout between the diets, were examined for within-subject differences in cognition, depression, mood, and headache. Measures included weight of foods consumed containing aspartame, mood and depression scales, and cognitive tests for working memory and spatial orientation. When consuming high-aspartame diets, participants had more irritable mood, exhibited more depression, and performed worse on spatial orientation tests.”

It’s important to note that the higher intake level in this study was well below the maximum acceptable daily intake level of 45-50 mg/kg body weight/day!

Drinking one diet drink a day can triple your risk for stroke and dementia!

A team of scientists from Boston University discovered this in a recent study and concluded that aspartame “wreaks havoc on arteries and may affect blood vessels eventually triggering stroke and dementia”.

Aspartame is the World’s most widely used artificial sweetener. Numerous studies have linked it to serious health problems including:

▪️Cancer
▪️Cardiovascular disease
▪️Alzheimer’s disease
▪️Stroke
▪️Dementia
▪️Intestinal dysbiosis
▪️Mood disorders
▪️Headaches
▪️Migraines

Some examples of aspartame-containing products include:

▪️diet soda
▪️sugar-free ice cream
▪️reduced-calorie fruit juice
▪️gum
▪️yogurt
▪️sugarless candy

Aspartame is a toxin and the consumption of it places stress on the brain and nervous system, which if left untreated, can also lead to health issues.

Chiropractors help reduce stress on the brain and nervous system through chiropractic adjustments. So in addition to staying away from products sweetened with aspartame, be sure to get adjusted regularly.
