A third of the population regularly struggle with our sleep, which rose to one in two during the pandemic, the highest it's ever been. However, as more and more people seek help, an explosion in sleep science is enabling the study of sleep in ways not possible before.

He discovers why cutting our sleep short can be linked to a host of illnesses, including serious diseases like Alzheimer's.

Revealing the very latest science breakthroughs and packed with personal anecdotes, this programme is a useful guide to anyone looking for tips and insights on how to get the benefits from learning how to sleep well.
