Quality sleep is good for overall health. Adequate sleep helps the body repair, regenerate, and recover as well as balances hormones in the body. According to the US Sleep foundation, about 10 to 30 percent of adults have chronic insomnia and about 30 to 48 percent of elderly suffer from insomnia. Medical literatures have proven that insomnia or sleep deprivation can lead to serious diseases such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and depression.
