Want a good night's sleep? Have sex, say doctors
Sex before bedtime is one of the best ways to guarantee a good night's sleep, a survey of doctors has revealed.
But, on a less romantic note, the medics also recommended sleeping in separate beds was the best solution to ensure couples enjoyed undisturbed, quality sleep.
One in six doctors quizzed for the survey backed the sex before bedtime approach, with 38 per cent recommending separate beds.
GPs aged 55 and over were the greatest believers in sex as a way to aid restful sleep.
A third of the doctors surveyed said there has been a rise in the amount of patients they are seeing about sleeping problems since the start of the recession.
Some 82 per cent felt people were putting their health at risk by not getting a good enough quality of sleep.
The survey revealed 61 per cent of GPs thought people didn't seek medical help or take action to address health problems that disturb sleep because they feel their condition is not serious enough.
Primary Care Physician Dr Patricia Mcnair says: "With just 21 per cent of the population getting the recommended eight hours of sleep a night, it is vital that the time spent in bed is as restful as possible.
"Sleep is a fundamental part of our wellbeing, affecting us in many ways including energy levels, concentration and mood.
"I recommend that people take steps to make sleep more of a priority in their life and take action to address problems that regularly disturb their sleep."
The survey of 400 British doctors was carried out by Crampex, who produce a treatment for muscle cramp.
*If this is what universal health care is going to look like, then sign me up! I'd much rather get a prescription for some hot loving then have to take sleeping pills!
