The number of hours of shut eye you get every night and the quality of your sleep determines not just how well you function the next day, but also your health.

Yikes!

There are plenty of ways to ensure you’re sleeping well, like ensuring your mattress is comfortable, the room is completely dark, you avoid screen time at least half an hour before bed, and that you’re exercising enough and eating well.
