Jordan FeigenbaumHOST
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine's guideline recommends timed light for adults with advanced sleep phase disorder in the evening and for kids and teens with the delayed sleep phase wanted in the morning.
Jordan FeigenbaumHOST
Now, none of this has slam dunk data.
Jordan FeigenbaumHOST
This is one of their weaker levels of recommendations where timed melatonin had better support there.

Next is the sleep score.
Jordan FeigenbaumHOST
The claim is that tracking your sleep every night, your stages, your deep sleep, your sleep score, well, that's going to help you sleep better.

Mike DeLukeHOST
They now look, and instead of having to send this parent away or put them on maybe Singulair or something or a nasal spray trying something because they just don't know what to do, they say, go see Dr. DeLuke, and I think there's a need for him to help your son or daughter grow better.
Mike DeLukeHOST
And we know from Audrey Yoon's paper in Sleep Medicine in 2022, and I saw this in my patients all the time, actually showed an example of it at Panty, that when we go in and help these patients grow better, the vast majority of the time for these moderately enlarged and hypertrophied adenoids, They shrink when the patient starts nasal breathing.

I am a sleep doctor.

My background is in internal medicine.
Akudo AnokwuteGUEST
The story about sleep medicine is so funny because I'm originally Nigerian and back in my country, most people didn't know about snoring.
Akudo AnokwuteGUEST
So they thought that when people snore, they're actually sleeping really well and in some kind of deep stage of sleep.
Ken BerryHOST
The problem is, is that for many of us, this advice is incorrect.
Ken BerryHOST
The American ca- academy of Sleep Medicine says that caffeine has a half-life of three to five hours in the human body, and therefore, that's where the six-hour stop the caffeine before bed, that's where that recommendation comes from.
Ken BerryHOST
So first of all, let's talk about the half-life issue.
Ken BerryHOST
So if you ingest 200 milligrams of caffeine in a cup of coffee or tea, o- one hour, uh, a half-life is the point in time at which there's only 100 milligrams.
