Inflammatory disorders include gout, psoriatic arthritis, myositis, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus vasculitis, etc. How one takes the best care of themselves? Are there any supplements, or routines that can particularly support a healthy lifestyle for people dealing with autoimmune diseases? (additional to what is being said in general about healthy lifestyle). I'd like to know what a science based holistic approach is - not only medicines but also lifestyle/dietary changes. I Am particularly interested in RA but any tips on dealing with chronic inflammation would help. Thank you!
I bought recently Fitbit with sleep tracking and while it might not be 100% accurate in terms of sleep, I do feel personally that there might be still some room for improving my sleep. According to my statistics, I have a lot of light sleep, have no issues with amount of REM sleep, but deep sleep seems to be lacking in favor of light sleep. So my question is, what seems to affect deep sleep the most? That'd be regarding supplements, relations with light etc. Of course, I get my morning and evening light daily. I cut caffeine relatively early, also didn't find difference in terms of sleep quality no caffeine during the day vs caffeine cut 8h before bed. Sauna during the day doesn't seem to affect my deep sleep levels as well. In terms of supplements I take daily before bed 100mg of L-theanine and 2g of magnesium byglicinate as well as sometimes 2g of Glycine. I also work out regularly and don't have issues troubles falling asleep. There might be a possibility, that my dust allergy might be affecting my deep sleep though, since I tend to wake up one or two times to use the medicine for nose. But still, if you had tips on how to improve your deep sleep it'd be helpful. Best regards and thank you for saving the Internet.
