Dr. Perko Discusses the Benefit of Good Sleep Habits on October 12

Quick, fill in the blank. “Good sleep is the key to _______”.  If you answered “everything” then you know the benefit of getting good quality sleep.

Sleep is essential for a person’s health and well-being, yet most of us do not get as much sleep as we need. According to Dr. Perko, at least 40 million Americans suffer from over 70 different sleep disorders, and 60 percent of adults report having sleep problems a few nights a week or more, many of which go undiagnosed and untreated. During the day, people experience daytime sleepiness severe enough to interfere with their daily activities at least a few days each month.

Join the NRECA POWER Wellness team and Dr. Mike Perko, NRECA’s chief wellness advisor, for the latest Wellness webinar on Wednesday, October 12, 2016, at 2 pm ET. Dr. Perko will describe our biological need for sleep, why it is essential to health and well-being, discuss common health concerns (snoring, sleep apnea), and what can be done to get a good night’s sleep.
