Anyone who has experienced the frustration of a sleepless night, waking up feeling dreadful the next morning, understands the significance of quality slumber. Sleep is vital for recuperation, bolstering the immune system, maintaining heart health, enhancing cognitive abilities, and more, yet many people are not getting sufficient rest.
Individuals grappling with sleep issues have probably explored the array of sleep aids available on the market, but it can be difficult to discern which products are genuinely beneficial and which are more like expensive confectionery. However, now there's an opportunity to test out Protein Works' Sleep Deep supplement, currently on offer at £11.99, reduced from its usual price of £19.99, to discover if its scientifically-supported composition can aid in achieving that much-needed rest.
The Sleep Deep supplement boasts calming botanical extracts like lemon balm, lavender, and chamomile, alongside crucial minerals such as magnesium, which contribute to reducing tiredness the following day. The pivotal component is L-Tryptophan, an amino acid instrumental in the production of serotonin, often referred to as the 'feel good chemical' in the brain, and melatonin, the hormone responsible for signalling to the body when it's time to wind down.

"It's not just to help people fall asleep faster, but to support the deeper sleep stages that truly restore your body and brain.

CPR questions to be added to driving theory test
CPR questions to be added to driving theory test The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) – which oversees driving tests in Britain – said motorists are often "first on the scene" when someone suffers a cardiac arrest. (Image: Getty Images/iStockphoto) Learner drivers are to be quizzed on their CPR skills in an update to the theory test. The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) – which oversees driving tests in Britain – said motorists are often "first on the scene" when someone suffers a cardiac arrest. Adding questions on CPR and defibrillators to the theory test from early next year means candidates will "have a better understanding of the skills to use in an emergency", it added. More than 40,000 people in the UK suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest each year, with fewer than one in 10 surviving. Research has found survival rates can be as high as 70% if CPR is given and a defibrillator used within three to five minutes of collapse. DVSA chief driving examiner Mark Winn said: "Part of being a safe and responsible driver is knowing what to do in an emergency – how to step in and make a real, life-saving difference. "Learning CPR and how to use a defibrillator is a very simple skill, and adding this into the official learning resource is a great way for DVSA to support the drive to raise awareness." The push for the change was led by Professor Len Nokes – chair of the Save a Life Cymru scheme – whose 24-year-old daughter Claire died in 2017 from complications following a cardiac arrest. He said: "When Claire, my daughter, had her cardiac arrest, some knowledge of CPR might have made a difference. "I don't want any other family to go through this experience. "All of us in this partnership hope that by making CPR and how to use a defibrillator part of the theory test, we will be able to significantly increase the number of people who have this life-saving awareness." James Cant, chief executive of charity Resuscitation Council UK, said: "By embedding these life-saving skills into such a widely-taken assessment, we can help ensure that more people, from all communities, gain the knowledge and confidence to act during a cardiac arrest." Learners must pass the theory driving test before booking a practical test. Theory test candidates are required to get at least 43 out of 50 multiple-choice questions correct, covering areas such as road signs, traffic laws, vehicle safety and first aid. They must also pass a hazard perception video test. Article continues below More than two million theory tests are taken each year, with a pass rate of about 45%.

Woman says 'voodoo magic' hack helps her fall back asleep in the middle of the night
Woman says 'voodoo magic' hack helps her fall back asleep in the middle of the night A woman has shared a trick she was told would help her fall back asleep instantly if she found herself awake in the middle of the night - and it's amazing people It's frustrating when you can't get back to sleep (stock image) (Image: Kilito Chan via Getty Images) It can be incredibly exasperating when you wake up in the middle of the night, only to glance at your phone and realise it's still hours until your alarm is due to go off. You yearn to drift back into sleep immediately to snatch those extra few hours, but sometimes it can seem like an unattainable task. Frequently waking up during the night and struggling to return to sleep can be a symptom of insomnia. Everyone requires different amounts of sleep based on their age, but if you're not getting enough, you'll likely feel perpetually fatigued throughout the day. One woman stumbled upon a trick that could help her fall back asleep instantly in such situations, and she was astounded by its effectiveness. Dermatologist Jenna Coackley shared on her @jenna_coack TikTok account that she initially doubted the trick could work after discovering it on Instagram. She added: "But I've tried it a couple of nights in a row and it literally works. It's the best trick I've ever tried." She then posted screenshots of her Oura Ring data, which can monitor metrics including sleep and heart rate. From two separate nights, it showed she had spent around 1hr 20mins awake during the night. However, the first time she attempted the trick, it showed she'd only spent 24 minutes awake, and the second time, 31 minutes. Jenna then proceeded to explain the trick. With your eyes shut, you look right, then left, then up, then down, and finally, your eyes circle around before reversing the direction. According to Jenna, all you need to do is repeat this until you drift back to sleep. Jenna delved into the science behind the technique, explaining that it activates your "parasympathetic nervous system", and "tricks your brain into thinking it's in the REM cycle". "I don't know, it feels like some type of voodoo magic," she added. Content cannot be displayed without consent Several people tried the trick for themselves, with one individual exclaiming: "You've saved my life." Another chimed in: "Yes! We do this in therapy and it regulates your nervous system. "I kinda do that too... except I add crossing your eyes at the end ... it really does work!!!" said another. However, the method didn't prove successful for everyone, with one person offering an alternative approach: "That hasn't worked for me. But what does work is running through the alphabet and picking a category to name off things within the category per letter. As many as you can think of. I don't ever recall making it past D or E before dozing off." According to the NHS, adults require seven to nine hours of sleep each night, while children need between nine and 13. Toddlers and babies should get 12 to 17 hours. Insomnia can be caused by numerous factors, but there are steps you can take to help, such as altering your sleeping habits. Article continues below Attempt to maintain a consistent sleep schedule, unwind at least an hour before bedtime, ensure your bedroom is dark and quiet, and engage in regular exercise throughout the day. If you've made these lifestyle adjustments and still struggle with sleep for months, it's time to consult your GP.

Five functional drinks to elevate your health this summer
Furthermore, the fact that match contains the calming amino acid L-theanine means it offers a gentler energy boost compared to coffee, minus any jitters or crash. That noted, although iced matcha lattes are lauded as a superfood, many of the matcha drinks you'll find on cafe menus are loaded with sweeteners, flavoured syrups, and creamy milks that can turn this health hero into more of a sugary treat, so it's worth keeping an eye on what's going into your coffee cup.
