In the hustle of our modern lives, sleep often takes a backstage seat—a quiet hero overshadowed by productivity, screens, and endless to-do lists. Yet, within those nocturnal hours lies a treasure trove of well-being. Sleep isn’t merely a pause button; it’s a symphony of repair, a dance of memory consolidation, and a fortress against stress. When we honor our slumber, we gift our bodies resilience, clarity, and emotional balance. 

Millions of people suffer silently from insomnia, facing sleepless nights, daytime fatigue, and a diminished quality of life.

These issues not only cause physical discomfort but also affect mental and emotional health. Studies indicate that about 30% of adults experience symptoms of insomnia, with 10% suffering from chronic insomnia.

According to a report by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2020, 8.4% of adults in the United States took sleep medication either every day or most days a month prior the interview to help them fall or stay asleep.

Comparing the CDC reports from 2010 and 2020, there has been a noticeable increase in the use of sleep medications among U.S. adults, the percentage of adults using sleep medications has more than doubled, from 4% in 2010 to 8.4% in 2020.

However, these solutions often come with a range of side effects. Prescription sleep aids can cause dizziness, headaches, and even sleep-related behaviors such as driving or eating while not fully awake. Over-the-counter options may lead to drowsiness, dry mouth, and blurred vision. Even natural supplements like Melatonin can result in headaches and nausea.

Especially in older adults, long-term use of sleeping pills can increase the risk of falls, fractures, and accidents due to lingering drowsiness and impaired coordination. Given these potential drawbacks, we decided to test a product in the market called Zen BrainWave.
