It appears that the social burden of sleep disorders will only increase. More than half of all Americans over age 65 suffer from some sort of sleep problem. As America continues to age, sleep disorders will become more of a national health concern. It is estimated that 100 million Americans will have a sleep disorder by the year 2050. This health problem is not limited to the elderly.
Children also suffer from sleep disorders.
About 25 percent of children between 1 and 5 years of age have some sort of chronic sleep disturbance. Inc. All Rights Reserved.
