affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by the inability to fall asleep, remain asleep, or both, even when an individual has the opportunity to do so.<\/p>\n<p>There are various reasons why people suffer from insomnia. Stress, <a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/anxiety.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anxiety<\/a>, depression, and other mental health conditions are common causes. Additionally, chronic pain, medications, and disrupted sleep schedules can also contribute to insomnia.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the prevalence of insomnia, traditional treatments like medication may come with unwanted side effects. As such, exploring <b>natural remedies for insomnia<\/b> can be an effective alternative for achieving better sleep.<\/p>\n<p>To better understand the causes and challenges of insomnia, consider the following table:<\/p>\n<p>This table highlights the most common types of <b>sleep disorders<\/b> and the challenges associated with treating them, including the limitations of medications and traditional treatments.<\/p>\n<p>As seen in the table, <b>sleep disorders<\/b> like sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome can significantly impact sleep quality.
