    Cool video thanks. Any imagine how much that sleep study would cost even with insurance.

    As you get older your sleep will get worse on average. Mine has.

      Mine gets better.

      It depends on your lifestyle/habits and your overall health (issues).

    Great video.

      Linked in the description. It’s from Twilla

    She didn’t actually review any of the gadgets individually. This is pointless.

    • @samyg123

      March 14, 2024 at 10:36 am

      It would have been more informative if she spent a week with each item to see how the sleep score changed

    So what did we learn?
    Sleep trackers don’t provide any usable data, and they contradict real medical tests.
    The placebo effect is much more potent than you realize.
    The traditional advice given to improve sleep like, consistency and fully darkening a room, actually work.
    Dogs like fancy pillows.
    Thanks!!!

    This video tries to do everything and at the end is pointless… what products are worth buying? Ok so everyone needs a proper sleep study and no gadgets? Then what’s the point of this video??

  8. @mullerintech

    That’s an amazing video, I did that sleeping night test in the clinic, It looks exactly like that with the oxygen tube and all. My Galaxy watch usually gives me a good score but I was usually tired in the morning. The test pointed out that I usually have more than 100 episodes that wake me up during the night. And that’s not a horrible result, but explain some things.

    That looked like a Stanley cup

    When I was in my mid 30s, I purchased a waterbed from someone. They were leaving the apartment as I was moving in. I really loved it and I’m beginning to think I should get myself another one if I can because that was the best to sleep on

    Congratulations on having a child. How old is the baby and what’s his or her name?

  12. @LexySavvides

    Thanks so much for watching! Curious to know if you’ve tried any sleep tech and if it works?

    Sleep is probably most affected by diet and lifestyle. Thinking an expensive gadget will fix your problems is a terrible decision.

  14. @Dusty10

    March 14, 2024 at 12:06 pm

    Is there going to be a part two or what what was resolved

  15. @kingkringle

    March 14, 2024 at 12:23 pm

    That study would have cost thousands of dollars out of pocket and they just say to talk to your doctor… Arent you paying for the specialist? Not much help. Ive had bad experiences with sleep issues and trying to find solutions – so far Im convinced the industry is a bit of a pseudoscience cash grab.

    Congrats and much love for becoming a mom! Oh, and for being back on YouTube this fast, just to enter- and infotain us! I’m much into sleep related content, so this one was a great one for me! ❤

    Congratulations on being a mom, 
    I guess sleep apnea and leg twitching is the main problem why our sleep could be broken.
