Dear LEC Reader,

Regular sleep is necessary for survival. Sleep is a dynamic time of healing and growth for people. For example, during stages 3 and 4, or slow-wave sleep, growth hormone levels increase, and immune function changes. In some studies, sleep deprivation led to a decrease in immune function.

The National Sleep Foundation maintains that eight to nine hours of sleep for adult humans is optimal and that sufficient sleep benefits alertness, memory and problem solving, and overall health, as well as reducing the risk of accidents.

A widely publicized 2003 study performed at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine demonstrated that cognitive performance declines with fewer than eight hours of sleep.

Sleep deprivation can adversely affect brain function. A 2001 Study at Harvard's Medical Institute suggested that sleep deprivation may be linked to more serious diseases, such as heart disease.

Several large studies using nationally representative samples suggest that the obesity epidemic in Europe and the United States might have as one of its causes a corresponding decrease in the average number of hours that people are sleeping.

The findings suggests that this might be happening because sleep deprivation might be disrupting hormones that regulate glucose metabolism and appetite.

The association between sleep deprivation and obesity appears to be strongest in young and middle-age adults.

ADR 3 Environment Harmonizer

Neutralize & Harmonize Energy Forces and Geopathic Radiation with ADR-3 that influences its surroundings, neutralizing and harmonizing energy forces leaving you with your energy flow restored and renewed.

We are all exposed to negative energies from the Earth (radiation of underground water, storm or sewage pipes, caves or mineral bodies), and human generated sources (electromagnetic fields in computers, appliances, cell phones, power lines, etc.). These negative energies sap your strength. This energy device consists of a magnetic disc embedded in a ceramic casing, about 3" in diameter. In normal conditions with low levels of radiation, one ADR-3 provides sufficient influence over about 1100 square feet.

Tips for a good night's sleep:

The following ten tips can help you achieve sleep and the benefits it provides. These tips are intended for "typical" adults, but not necessarily for children or persons experiencing medical problems.

To enhance the quality of your sleep clear your room of all electronics and use a geopathic influence eliminator. Use a negative ion generator - Crystal Salt lamps are very effective for that.
