Today we are going to be talking about the Truth About Sleeping Pills. So let’s talk about sleeping pills. Number one, sleeping pills are a huge part of the pharmaceutical industry today because so many people have issues with their sleep. Now, you’re probably watching this because maybe you’re taking sleeping pills right now and you have a sleep issue, and because of that, I’m actually glad that you’re watching this because we’re going to talk about the dark side of sleeping pills and also what you can do to get off those sleeping pills and actually solve the problem versus treat the symptom. So what’s the problem with sleeping pills? Well, number one, sleeping pills are linked to dementia. So benzodiazepan, the type of sleeping pill that’s often prescribed, was studied and found in France and in Britain in many studies to increase dementia by up to 50% in older adults. So that’s a huge problem. That’s a huge red flag right there.
Dementia is a big problem for a lot of people, and by taking sleeping pills, you are actually increasing your risk by 50%, not to mention all of the side effects.

They don’t really help with insomnia.
