Read More »Struggling to get a good night's sleep? We've all been there, and when you're struggling with insomnia, you'll try anything in the bid to get some decent shut-eye. And the good thing is there's no shortage of expert-approved sleep hacks to try: there's the 4-7-8 technique, the military sleep method, cognitive reshuffling – and now, a US doctor on Instagram has gone viral for sharing a lifestyle trick that could help us sleep more soundly. Dr. Jess Andrade recently caught the attention of thousands of people after her Instagram reel explaining "sleep hygiene basics" took off online. In the video, Dr. Andrade introduces the "10-3-2-1-0 Method", a step-by-step guide on how to prepare yourself for a night of optimal sleep throughout the day. She begins by giving us news that some of us coffee lovers may not take too well: you shouldn't have any caffeinated drinks ten hours before you plan on going to bed. "Caffeinated drinks will clear from the blood stream in around 10 hours and eliminate the stimulatory effects," she wrote in the caption, explaining the first step. She then went onto the second point of the method, telling us that "finishing eating big meals or alcohol three hours before can help reduce symptoms of reflux and alcohol impairs your natural sleep cycle reducing good quality sleep" - a fact you've probably heard but chosen to ignore a few times before. Around two hours before hitting the hay, Dr. Andrade suggested relaxing the brain stopping any tasks or work-related things and saving it for the next day to give yourself a mental rest. Finally, she said that reducing your use of electronics and screen time an hour before bed is essential to getting good quality sleep as the blue light disrupts the body’s natural sleep cycle. The "0" then stands for the amount of times you'll need to hit the snooze button in the morning as you'll be well rested and ready to conquer the day.

There were 90 atherosclerotic events among people who ate chocolate one to six times per week and only 42 atherosclerotic events among people who ate chocolate seven or more times per week.
Nov. 12, 2010 -- Good news for women who love chocolate: Frequently eating chocolate was associated with a lower risk for atherosclerosis, as well as for hospitalization and premature death from heart disease or heart failure. Reporting in this week’s Archives of Internal Medicine, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania compared the effects of eating chocolate on heart health among more than 1,200 older women. Using dietary questionnaires, researchers looked at how frequently the women ate chocolate and also looked at ultrasound images of their carotid arteries to see if there were any changes in artery thickness -- an indication of atherosclerosis, a condition in which the arteries harden and blood flow becomes impaired. Chocolate consumption was divided into three groups: less than one serving per week, between one and six servings per week, and seven or more servings per week or eating chocolate every day. A serving of chocolate was defined as weighing between 25 and 50 grams (0.9 and 1.8 ounces) and containing between 5% and 15% of cocoa by weight. A total of 47.6% of the participants ate chocolate less than once a week, 35.8% ate chocolate one to six times per week, and 16.6% of the group ate chocolate every day.
