About Better Sleep Project

Better Sleep Project exists to make evidence-based sleep education accessible to every patient. We believe that understanding the science behind sleep is the first step toward improving it.

Who Writes This

Every article on this site is written and medically reviewed by a board-certified sleep medicine physician in active clinical practice. We currently publish anonymously so the content stays free of any commercial or professional conflicts of interest — what you read here is shaped only by the evidence, not by advertisers, sponsors, or product partnerships. This site carries no ads, sells nothing, and earns nothing from your visit.

Our articles are based on published research from organizations including the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and peer-reviewed sleep medicine journals. Every article includes source citations so you can verify the information yourself. You can read more about how we source and maintain our content in our editorial standards.

Our Editorial Approach

We write for patients and caregivers, not clinicians. That means clear language, practical guidance, and honest explanations of what the research does and doesn't show. We avoid jargon whenever possible and define technical terms when they're necessary.

What We Don't Do

Better Sleep Project provides general education, not medical advice. We don't diagnose conditions, prescribe treatments, or replace the guidance of your healthcare provider. If you have specific health concerns, please consult a qualified professional.
