What you eat today shapes your sleep tonight.
On higher-fiber, more plant-diverse days, people experience more deep and REM sleep, less light and fragmented sleep, and have a lower overnight heart rate.
On days with more processed foods and saturated fat, nighttime wakefulness tends to be higher with a less restorative sleep pattern (less deep/REM sleep).
And when dinner makes up a larger share of daily calories, people sleep longer with a higher overnight heart rate. A longer interval between one's last meal and bed time (about 4 vs. 2 hours) is associated with a lower overnight heart rate.
Long-term healthy eating patterns are essential for good sleep, but this new study argues that even day-to-day dietary variations affect how well or how poorly we sleep.
🚨 To Elon Musk and the DOGE team looking at Medicare:
Pharmacist says
- Cancer Medicine Imatinib costs them $7 to buy. They add $10, so you're out the door for $17
- When Medicare pays for this drug, IT COSTS THEM $2,400
- This drug was filled 250,000 times in 1 year costing Medicare $600 million
“If every one of those scripts was filled at our pharmacy instead of through Medicare, it would've cost $4 million. That means that we are $596 million cheaper than the insurance. That's crazy.”
“So why are they paying this much for that medication? Well, insurance companies pay a middleman, the pharmacy benefits manager, and that person decides how much that medication's gonna cost”
- 3 Pharmacy Benefits Managers control over 90% of all prescription pricing in America
- Pharmaceutical companies bought all 3 Pharmacy Benefits Managers
They set their own pricing, Medicare pays ASTRONOMICAL prices and taxpayers pick up the bill. This is a racket.
