I became a sleep researcher because I could not sleep. I appreciate that this is the equivalent of a dentist with terrible teeth, but here we are.

I spent three years reading every paper I could find, turning my bedroom into what my partner described as "a science experiment that occasionally snores," and eventually, genuinely, fixed it. Now I cover sleep and supplements, and I will be ruthlessly honest with you about what actually has evidence behind it.

The list is shorter than the supplement industry would like you to believe. But the stuff that works? It really works.

Seb sends me studies at 11pm. I find this professionally insulting and personally relatable. Edith and I have a running disagreement about magnesium that I am confident I am winning, but she would tell you differently.

"Reads sleep research last thing at night. Does not see the irony."


Amy covers: sleep science, circadian rhythm optimisation, evidence-based supplements, and the honest truth about which vitamins are worth your money and which ones are making your urine expensive.
