The article Evidence that the Lunar Cycle Influences Human Sleep was published six years ago, but I only just became aware of it today. Nevertheless, I suspected as much.
I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea in 2006. But lately I feel there's more to my sleep disturbances than just cessation of breath. Some days I wake up after a mere four hours unable to get back to sleep. Other nights I'll sleep for six hours.
So I think it's ridiculous that health insurance companies will limit coverage for a sleep study to a single one-night study over the member's lifetime. How can a single study capture all the variations in someone's sleep patterns?
Maybe this study and others like it will motivate The National Sleep Foundation to advocate for policy change.
