How much should we sleep?

Sleeping well is one of the most important foundations of physical, mental, and emotional health. However, in a fast-paced and increasingly connected society, getting the necessary hours of sleep (and of good quality) has become a real challenge.

According to experts, most adults need between 7 and 9 hours of sleep each night to function optimally. But... did you know that this figure can vary depending on your age, genetics, and lifestyle?

In this article, we explain how much you should sleep according to your stage of life, why rest is so important, and how you can improve your sleep quality naturally with Probiotic Dreamer™, the Baïa Food supplement formulated to help you switch off and recover restorative rest.

How many hours of sleep do we really need?

Sleep needs change throughout our lives:

Babies and toddlers: between 12 and 16 hours (including naps).
School-age children: 9 to 11 hours.
Adolescents: between 8 and 10 hours.
Adults: ideally between 7 and 9 hours.
Older adults: may require fewer hours, but with consistent, high-quality sleep.

Although these figures are indicative, the most important thing is to listen to your body: if you wake up tired, have trouble concentrating, or feel irritable, you may be sleeping less than you need.

Probiotic Dreamer™ is an excellent option for improving sleep quality, especially when stress or worries make it difficult to switch off. This natural supplement not only supports digestion, but also helps create a more relaxed environment, ideal for deep rest.

Factors that influence sleep

The amount of sleep you need depends not only on age. Other influencing factors include:

Genetics: some people need more hours to feel rested.
Health status: illness, pain, or anxiety can affect your rest.
Level of physical activity: the more you move, the more your body needs to recover.
Lifestyle and stress: work, screens, and a lack of routine disrupt your circadian rhythm.

That is why establishing good sleep habits is essential. And if you still struggle to sleep, you can rely on natural solutions such as Probiotic Dreamer™.

Probiotic Dreamer™: a natural ally to improve your rest

At Baía Food, we believe in the power of nature and science to help you rest better. That is why we formulated Probiotic Dreamer™, a powdered supplement with functional, scientifically backed ingredients that help you fall asleep and maintain a deep, restorative sleep.

It contains:

Saffron extract: increases the body’s natural melatonin production, which helps you fall asleep more easily and improves sleep quality.
Holy basil extract: known for its ability to reduce stress, it contributes to deeper, more restorative sleep.
Lemon balm extract: supports falling asleep and helps maintain sleep throughout the night, avoiding frequent awakenings.
L-Theanine: an amino acid that reduces sleep interruptions and helps you wake up with more energy and mental clarity.

All in one formula with no added sugars, no side effects, and easy to incorporate into your nighttime routine (ideal as a bedtime ritual).

Tips to improve your sleep hygiene

In addition to relying on Probiotic Dreamer™, here are some key points that make a difference:

Establish a regular schedule: go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
Disconnect from screens at least one hour before going to sleep.
Create a calm environment: a dark, cool, and quiet room.
Avoid caffeine and alcohol at night.
Exercise regularly, but avoid intense sessions just before bedtime.

Sleeping well is not a luxury; it is a biological necessity. Knowing your sleep needs and caring for your nighttime routine is key to performing better, being in a better mood, supporting your immune system, and living with more energy.

If you find it hard to disconnect at the end of the day, Probiotic Dreamer™ may be the natural boost you need to rest as you deserve.
