The You Docs for Monday November 29, 2010

Joyce - Here is your ArcaMax The You Docs Ezine,

Why You Can't Sleep and Neither Can the Kids

Cell phones and computers ... we love 'em (most of the time). We can keep in touch with our wives and kids no matter what. If we're not 100 percent sure what clouds are made of, we can find out instantly (tiny ice crystals and air). What would we do without them? Simple: We'd sleep better! And so would our kids. Turns out that 8-to-22-year-olds who send texts and e-mails, surf the Web or play computer games around bedtime have sleep troubles ranging from restlessness and insomnia to leg pain, reports a new study. The daytime effects: anxiety, depression and learning difficulties. Not what anybody (your child or you) needs. Healthy sleep at night does for kids what it does for you: boosts alertness, productivity, creativity and general well-being. Improves sex quality, too (that one's just for you). So make it happen. Put kids' cell phones to bed -- say, in your closet. Remember sneaking a flashlight under the covers after lights-out? Some things don't change. Half the parents in the study said they didn't know their kids were surfing and texting hours after bedtime. Clear TVs and computers out of bedrooms, too (including yours). Limit total screen time to two hours a day. The typical kid watches three hours of TV alone. That's time not spent playing outside and reading, activities that are more likely to induce sweet dreams. Keep it down. Kids can't sleep if your TV is blaring and your cell phone is beeping. Besides, all that screen time isn't good for your zzz's either. Unplug. Sleep tight. ======== The YOU Docs -- Mike Roizen and Mehmet Oz -- are authors of the best-selling "YOU: The Owner's Manual" and "YOU: On a Diet."
