I think the challenge is oftentimes that people are having bad nights of sleep consistently and then they are able to sleep the next night. They don't want to go to bed prematurely, right? You don't want to kind of like go to bed several hours earlier typically because you can only make so much sleep. And so if you go to bed too early, your sleep is likely to be fragmented.

Or you're going to, you know, you're going to wake up way earlier than you wanted to because when you lose sleep, you don't necessarily, your body doesn't make up the same amount the following night, right? Just the quality has changed.

Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of great data on that to understand how much of that is placebo. My guess is that there may be a little bit of an active ingredient, but just the rituals seem to be really important for people to let go and be able to sleep more soundly. Caffeine, however, we do know quite a bit about.

Caffeine certainly can increase alertness, but it's in our system for a long time. And so caffeine has a half-life of about six hours. And so that means that after six hours, half of it is still in your system. So if you have a double espresso at 4 p.m., at 10 p.m., you still have a single espresso in your system. We know that that can keep people alert.

It can make it difficult for them to fall asleep. And if they fall asleep, their sleep is often lighter or more fragmented. And so the quality seems to suffer as a consequence.
