Many people rely on supplements or medicines to fall asleep, but Harvard Medical School scientist Dr. Trisha Pasricha points to a simpler solution: warming your feet. Research shows that wearing socks, soaking feet in warm water, or taking a warm bath before bed can help people fall asleep almost as quickly as sleep aids like melatonin or Ambien. This routine improves sleep efficiency, is safe, inexpensive, and avoids side effects, making it a practical alternative for those struggling with sleepless nights. |
