Sip that beer slooooowly.
This sounds like woo-woo science, but I’m up for anything in the quest to sleep through the night. I dont know why the Youtube algorithm decided to plate up Andrew Huberman talking about how to reduce nighttime urination, but lets just say the Youtube algorithm knows me too well.
I normally wake at about 4am for a bladder bursting run to the bathroom, which is fine. But then I can’t get back to sleep, which is not.
Two weird take aways from the Doc. Your kidneys slow the fuck down after you’ve been awake for 10 hours, which means I need to finish my drinking by lunchtime. And, if you sip your later, forbidden drinks, they’ll run through you a bit more slowly than if you neck them like a champion.
I’m getting awfully tired of lying in bed awake at omigod thirty in the AM, so tonight’s beer will be slow beer.
Apart from the urinating issue, if that occurs again, why not try getting up for half an hour and doing something restful, then go back to bed. Sleeping is my forte.
Good luck, hope your sleep routine shifts more to your liking. A good nights sleep seems to be a big factor in over all health. As Count Rugen says "If you haven't got your health, well you haven't got anything".
