One of the causes for a sleep disorder and trouble sleeping is a poor quality of your mattress. Your mattress might be worn out or just plain wrong for you and it might be time to invest in a new one. Low-quality mattresses can cause you a number of health disorders, insomnia being one of them.

When it comes to mattresses, don't be stingy. Inform yourself to find out what is the best mattress for you and forget about the cost. Of course, that doesn't mean you should buy the most expensive mattress on the market. Just don't let the price stop you from buying a mattress you find comfortable and just to your taste. Perfect mattress can change your life. It is recommended you buy a new mattress every 8 to 10 years.

If you wonder how to fight insomnia, avoid caffeine as much as possible. Caffeine is a well-known stimulant that can be found not only in coffee but also in many other beverages, snacks and medication. If you are drinking coffee and/or energetic drinks too often, you should stop drinking it immediately. It can be difficult to give up caffeine when you are always tired, but the sooner you break this circle, the better.

If you simply cannot live without coffee, try drinking it only early in the day so it leaves your body before bedtime. Bear in mind that it takes 6-10 hours for caffeine to leave your body.

Eating a large meal late in the evening can occupy your digestive system for hours, make you bloated and gassy and give you heartburn, all of which could interfere with your sleep.

You don't want to go to bed too hungry because hunger can keep your brain alert and cause you discomfort and a sleepless night. The best thing to do is to have a moderate, healthy meal 2-3 hours before bedtime.
