Getting Good Sleep in Midlife

Good sleep seems simple until it becomes elusive. In midlife, a lot of us begin to suffer in the length and quality of our nightly rest.

Many of the internal structures that support good sleep begin to decline in our mid-forties, uncovering areas where we need the most support. Cortisol regulation, liver congestion, declining progesterone levels and blood sugar balance all play important roles.

These are multi-faceted systems that need tending on several levels, requiring lots of small, doable habit changes. And while HRT can be an important piece of the puzzle, it is one of many.

The question is, which habits to change? And which imbalances are driving your sleep troubles? While the solutions are often simple, knowing where to start is a science and and art. There are too many remedies to try them all. It’s important to have someone who can take a deeper look at your symptoms and sleep disturbances to help coax your body back into restful states of sleep through targeted, meaningful change.

That is where practitioners like Functional Nutritionists come in. Where traditional Western medicine looks more to relieving symptoms through medicine or surgery, the functional approach is geared more towards prevention and habit change. Through a framework of looking at the foods you eat, and targeted, manageable lifestyle changes, you can make huge strides in regaining quality rest.
