If you value luxury and comfort, then you’ll already know the difference Millbrook beds can make to your sleep. And a good night’s sleep can boost your brainpower.
Studies have shown that sleep deprivation may cause the brain to stop producing new brain cells. The research, conducted at Princeton University, shows that a lack of sleep impacts on the region of the brain responsible for forming memories.

Millbrook Beds – Boost Your Brain Power

The research tested on rats compared animals deprived of sleep for 72 hours with those who had normal sleep. They discovered a higher level of stress hormone in those that lacked sleep. They also discovered that the rats deprived of sleep produced significantly fewer new brain cells in the memory region of the brain – the hippocampus.

Invest in Your Sleep with Millbrook Beds

The tests point to a theory that elevated stress hormone levels as a result of sleep deprivation could explain lower cell production in the human brain. It’s thought that this is because the brain has to boost its efforts to counteract the lack of sleep. High quality, comfortable beds such as Millbrook beds that aid quality rest and sleep are an important component to getting a good night’s sleep. As well a comfortable bed and supportive mattress, it’s important that you:

• Avoid stimulants before bed, such as caffeine and alcohol
• If you are stressed, try meditative breathing to help clear the mind, or write down what’s troubling you on a notebook so you’re not dwelling on anxieties
• Avoid eating heavy meals before bed so you have time to digest and aren’t kept awake by stomach pains or feeling uncomfortable or bloated

Millbrook Beds – For a Sound Sleep

It’s clear that lack of sleep impacts on our ability to concentrate and focus, and there are theories that getting less sleep every night then you need over time could have the same impact as the sleep deprivation on the lab rats. It’s important to invest in quality beds and mattresses such as Millbrook beds to ensure you take care of your overall well being. Sleep is vital to humans, and making sure you have good Millbrook beds and mattresses, and by following the common sense steps outlined above, should all help in ensuring you too have sweet dreams.
