7 Natural Remedies for Better Sleep by Kay Carter According to the CDC , more than a third of American adults are not getting enough sleep on a regular basis. This lack of sleep (less than seven hours per day) is associated with an increased risk of developing chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and frequent mental distress. Here are seven natural remedies that can help you get better sleep. 1.
