Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

How eating habits or certain foods impact sleep? How much should men be stretching at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45? Does the need to be flexible vary by age?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Eating late heavy dinners will certainly affect sleep and also missing the meal altogether. Should avoid fatty meal especially at dinner time. Meals taken with lots of fluids are to be avoided too. Men should try and remain as flexible as possible, really more stiff, you are more likelihood of osteoarthritis setting in, more likelihood of injuries. Aim to continue with stretches for as long as possible.
