How about if your sleeplessness was genetic<\/em>?<\/p>\n The bad news: According to a new study, in fact, insomnia might be genetic.<\/p>\n The good news: There is still something you can do to sleep better. A study recently published in the journal Sleep<\/em> following several age groups of children into adulthood, identified insomnia in many of the participants as inherited, or genetic.<\/p>\n The study authors assert that there are genetic factors that control the sleep-wake cycles in humans, and therefore are subject to the same risk of genetic influences that any other condition would be.<\/p>\n The study further found that the genetic factors causing insomnia changed over time, depending upon the age of the sufferer. For example, genetic factors that affect insomnia in an 8-year old would be different than those in a 14-year old, but the result is the same- an inability to fall asleep and\/or stay asleep.<\/p>\n That may be the reason why many people go through a period of insomnia at some point in their life and then it heals without an obvious reason.<\/p>\n Insomnia, when left untreated, can result in many catastrophic health problems from depression to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and even heart attack.<\/p>\n The good news is that no matter what disease you fight, genetics rarely account for more than 50% of the problem. The other 50% is completely under your control.<\/p>\n Throughout the years, I\u2019ve helped hundreds of people who had trouble with insomnia. The simple method I use works for almost everyone in 24 minutes or less.<\/p>\n
