Cognitive Mental Disorders

All people reach an age where mental impairment would occur. However, one thing that people don’t know that sleep related issues may have something to do with it as well. Apparently, sleep-breathing problems may contribute towards affecting older people at some point and provide mental disorders which are expected to occur at some elderly state.

Sleep apnea has been known to create problems for people but this mental issue related to it is really something more important to take note of.

Older women with sleep-related breathing problems may have a heightened risk of impairments in thinking and memory, a new study suggests.

The findings, reported in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, suggest that so-called sleep-disordered breathing, including sleep apnea, may be a risk factor for age-related cognitive decline.

Redecorate your bedroom. “Make the bedroom a cool, dark, well-ventilated room,” Kinzie said. While you’re at it, upgrade to a mattress large enough to leave enough room between you and your bedmate. (Spooning isn’t ideal for a good rest.) Also, leave your laptop in the living room, don’t make a space for the TV on the night stand, and trade AC/DC for Enya.

Skip the Diet Coke nightcap. Nix caffeine, cigarettes and alchohol in the hours before bed. It’ll hamper your Saturday night plans, but you’ll wake up refreshed for Sunday morning.
