Sleep is supposed to be the most natural thing we do—so why does it feel like a nightly battle for so many?

 For countless people, bedtime is far from peaceful. Racing thoughts, restless legs, tossing and turning… when you can’t fall asleep, it doesn’t just steal your rest—it steals your peace of mind. And over time, it steals your health.

In this episode of The Health Made Simple Show, Dr. Bart explores how deep sleep—not just sleep, but the most restorative phase of it—plays a critical role in your heart health, your immune function, and your ability to repair and recharge. If you’re struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling like yourself, this episode is a must.

 

You’ll learn: 

  • Why deep sleep matters more than REM for immune strength, repair, and hormone regulation
  • The best time of night to get your deepest, most restorative sleep (Hint: it’s not after midnight)

  • Why most people aren’t getting enough deep sleep, and how it impacts the heart over time
