According to findings, the more you drink before bed, the more pronounced these effects. REM sleep happens about 90 minutes after we fall asleep. It's the stage of sleep when people dream, and it's thought to be restorative. Disruptions in REM sleep may cause daytime drowsiness, poor concentration, and rob you of needed ZZZs.
Alcohol may seem to be helping you to sleep, as it helps induce sleep, but overall it is more disruptive to sleep, particularly in the second half of the night if taken repeatedly.
Alcohol also suppresses breathing and can cause sleep apnea," or breathing pauses that occur throughout the night.
Studies prove that using alcohol as a sleeping aid can result in insomnia in the long run. However a drink or two here and there taken in a moderate quantity is of no harm.

an influx of baby birds.
BirdCare Aotearoa is a registered charity dedicated to caring for sick, injured and orphaned wild birds.
Over 6,000 birds are delivered to their centre in Green Bay, Auckland every year.
The centre’s admissions have been steadily increasing, with a 20% increase in admissions this year.
“Barely two weeks into spring, we’ve already admitted over 150 ducklings as well as a few other chicks including an orphaned pūkeko and a tiny ōi (grey-faced petrel),” says General Manager, Dr Lynn Miller.
“The bulk of our financial support comes through the front door – donations from very kind and generous people in the community who have rescued birds, supplemented by community grants,” says Fundraising and Development Coordinator, Bianka Atlas.
“We’re in the wake of a particularly challenging couple of years and are feeling the pinch."
The charity has launched a two-week crowdfunding campaign (click the link below), and hope to raise $15,000 to help cover food, essential medication and housing.
