Ah, there’s nothing like a good night’s sleep, or so the saying goes. We’ve all probably heard this said more times than we can remember, but why is sleep so important and are you getting enough of it? Medical research has found that our bodies go into a form of “repair” mode while we are asleep. It seems that during the time while our bodies are at rest, it gives the body’s systems the time needed to concentrate on healing and repair. If you are not getting an average of 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep each night, you might want to look into buying a mattress that is better suited to your body’s needs and sleep style.
Buying a Mattress that Fits Can Help Keep Your Heart Healthy
Research has proven that being chronically sleep deprived can, among many other things, cause you to spend an inordinate amount of time visiting your favorite cardiologist. Whereas the right mattress can help you enjoy a good night’s sleep, and, if you’re getting 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep per night, reduce your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and heart attack.
“If I buy a new mattress, will it guarantee me a good night’s sleep?” is a very common question from those interested in buying a mattress. While no one can ever guarantee you a perfect night’s sleep every night, at Bed’r Mattress, we offer a one-hundred-night guarantee that states, “If at any time during the first 100 nights, you are not completely happy with your new mattress, we will exchange it for another one in our showroom.”
The Right Mattress Can Keep You Skinny
While a new mattress from Bed’r Mattress won’t necessarily help you lose weight, it can help keep you from packing on the pounds. When you aren’t getting enough sleep, your ability to fight off the cravings for junk food drops significantly, leading to more snacking, sweets, those middle of the night binges and all those extra pounds you can’t seem to stop adding on.
Reduced Risk of Car Accidents
Not getting enough sleep can leave you sluggish, reducing your reaction times, and your ability to maintain focus. If you are going to drive when you are low on sleep, your abilities to drive safely are similar to those you would have if you were drunk. The less sleep you get, the higher the risk of getting into an accident.
No Fried Brains
Do you remember the old Public Service Announcements extolling “This is your brain – this is your brain on drugs?” The final image was that of an egg frying, which is one that can just as easily be applied to a lack of sleep. If you avoid buying a mattress for too long, the lack of sleep can leave you feeling fuzzy-headed and unable to stay focused. This can lead to serious mistakes at work, on the road, and worse, it could cost you your job.
