In 2023, U.S. adults indicated in a survey the actions they carried out to improve their sleep quality. While 19 percent of people stated they didn't use any method, 37 percent of respondents reported that they try to go to bed at the same time every night. The second most common strategy was to consume supplements or sleep medication. Other strategies included upgrading mattresses, pillows, or bedding, as well installing blackout curtains, using earplugs, and personal habits, like avoiding digital screens, the consumption of sleep nutraceutical, and aromatherapy.
