Dan Gartenberg: The brain benefits of deep sleep — and how to get more of it (#4)

Americans do not get enough sleep. That is the basis of Gartenberg's argument. We attribute low sleep to certain disorders and diseases. Poor sleep also has its many negative effects. So then why do people get so little sleep, or such poor sleep? Most people don't get deep sleep, and therefore cannot get the recovery that sleep offers.
Gartenberg partnered with another sleep scientist to research how sounds played at specific times can make sleep more efficient. This shows the benefits of this technology, because if it becomes consumer-grade, it can make sleep better overall. I feel that this offers a vast benefit to people.
