Did you know that exercise can help you get a good night’s sleep?
According to a new study, aerobic exercise helps older adults (50 years old and over) sleep better.
The study examined the effect of aerobic exercise among middle-aged individuals with insomnia. Half of the participants exhibited chronic insomnia symptoms.
The exercises resulted in improvement in the patients’ sleep quality, including hours of sleep. There were also fewer depressive symptoms, daytime drowsiness and more vitality.
“Better sleep gave them pep, that magical ingredient that makes you want to get up and get out into the world to do things,” explained Katheryn Reid, the lead author of the study.
