Once upon a time there was a Khaki car-drivin’ entrepreneur named Martin Dincher (that’s me) who lived in Williamsport, PA. Martin’s father has had heart problems since he was relatively young and isn’t an example of heart-healthy eating. Martin’s mother, who lives in Cogan Station, suffers from emphysema due to smoking. Martin plans to be around to spoil grandchildren in twenty years, so is trying hard to break the chain of parents’ poor examples when it comes to health.
Martin eats a healthy diet, sweats regularly at a gym in Avis and can often be found doing the downward dog at a New Columbia yoga studio. Martin has a strong immune system and, fortunately, hardly ever gets sick. (Don’t discount the obsessive hand-washing.) And in case you were wondering, Martin doesn’t touch cigarettes.
This all sounds good so far, right? Here is the problem. In spite of diligence, Martin often feels less-than-normal. Why? Insomnia. Not occasional sleeplessness, Martin goes weeks with wide awake sleep time. Our poor insomniac has watched all the old movies that play on TCM–several times each!
If you suffer from insomnia, you know that it doesn’t matter if you have a heart rate of 20, a bloodstream free of cholesterol and can run a four-minute mile–you still feel lousy!
A friend in Mc Ewensville challenged me to compare some good sleep aids to find one that works for me. I start tonight with 7Hour Slumber. I did some extensive research and found only positive feedback about this all natural sleep remedy. I will use it for a week and then try Melotrex to see which one is the most effective for chronic sleeplessness. Check back soon for the end of the story.
I hope to live (and sleep) happily ever after.
