About this episode

According to Mental Health UK, nearly one in five people in the country don’t get enough sleep. We’ve talked about various types of sleep disorder in the past on Do You Really Know and the link between good sleep and good health is well established.

Many people turn to sleeping pills, but there’s a totally natural alternative which may actually yield better results.

What's that? Why is sex so beneficial then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
