    Dr, I just went through the sleep study procedure, diagnosed with apnea and now awaiting the DME my doctor prescribed. But, before my equipment arrived I came down with a Shingles covering my buttocks, crotch, posterior thigh, and my privates. For close to three weeks I have been taking 300mg Gabapentin three times a day for nerve calming. Since the Gabapentin I have sleeping normally as normal for being 82, maybe one pit stop. Also I wake CLEAR headed and refresh. Before the Shingles attack I was a walking zombie, sleeping at most two hours straight and most time afraid to go to sleep since who want to awaken gasping for breath. I attribute my good sleep to the medication and I’m curious what will happen when I’m through the course.

    What you failed to mention is that both Keewee and tart cherry are diuretics. I took your advice, ate them before bed. Two nights in a row, and I was up peeing all night.

    Regarding fruit consumption before bed, wouldn’t that risk elevating blood sugar, and be contraindicated to people who already have high blood sugar?

      I would think so as I monitor my BSL in.the morning. I limit fruits to mainly berries which are lowest in.carbs.

    Will eating walnuts, Brazil nuts , hazelnuts, macadamias a couple of hours before bed interfere with sleep or wake you up in the middle of the night?

    • @1987jugernaut
      @1987jugernaut 8 місяців тому

      Brazil nuts are acidic 5.5 ph level
      I don’t think consuming any food in aid to sleep is good because of several factors from the food ie raising blood pressure and ph levels is just a tip of the iceberg then it will depend on how you sleep if you sleep on your left side or right side can induce heartburn but you cannot guarantee on the desired position as you will be sleeping and not aware of your sleep position.

      Think it depends on your body type / size and gender. I'm a cis woman, 5'4 in heigh and about 140lbs in weight, I find that 1 kiwi can be fine, but if I'm having a really bad time of it, 2 kiwi's about 2 hours before bed helps.

      It’s always best to talk with your Dr before taking supplements, especially if you take medications or are diabetic.
      Most medications stem from herbs and supplements. Valium comes from valerian root and St Johns wart an anti depressant. Hope this helps

    Honestly, there are not and CAN NEVER BE controlled trials to give us the answers we want about diet. And I wonder how many kiwifruit you have to eat to help you to sleep - they're about 95% water, so that''s gonna wake you up in the night to pee. The best that can be said for this advice is, avoiding red meat is better for the animals that would otherwise suffer, and such moral standards improve your well-being, even if you can't sleep.

    Imagine you're living in a country where one earns about $150 - $250 pm, how one can effort to have those stuff for a good night sleep. So let's wake up in the middle of the night and read " Gone with the wind or any Doom day book!

      Have a natural sleep supplement instead... Also there are some cheap sources of melatonin... Bananas, milk, peanuts are some of them.

    Hi Dr Breus, That sounds like great advice thank you very much. I think that does work for a lot of people.
    However people with anxiety and panic attacks when their heart rate is shooting up they need something else to manage those emotions and thoughts, I'm a hypnotherapist of 30 years experience. Have you ever used self hypnosis or hypnotherapy as a way of managing or even ending people's anxiety and panic?
    I think the classic one is the warrior who is running 100 miles an hour all day long trying to escape their thoughts, they go to bed absolutely exhausted sleep for around two hours and then they're awake as soon as their body has had enough rest, they're awake again. I get great results working with those sorts of people . Do you have any advice that you'd like to add to that to enhance the work I do for them?
    I think sleep is an amazing subject and I can never learn enough about it .
