Speaker 1 (00:09):
You've been asking us to head down river and this
is your opportunity to hang with us. Bring lots of cereal,
of course more teaming up with the nurses from Children's
Hospital and and gleaners. So it's going to be a
good time and we like, we like heading down the
south Gate. It's been a while, it.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Has a little while.

Speaker 3 (00:26):

else to do that morning, there are still some spots

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Do you have a lunch today?

Speaker 2 (00:57):

Good.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
The average American only feels fully healthy nineteen days a month.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
It's interesting, right, because what did I have last week?
I had like.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Four pretty good sick days. But here's the reason why
people say they feel thirteen days a month tired, ten
days a month moody or changes in their mood. Yeah,
nine to eight nine twenty eight days per month with
digestive issues.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
What's that like our stomach?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Yeah, acid reflux our stomach.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Seven days with headaches?

Speaker 4 (01:45):
Yeah, I don't. I mean, since I've been going through
this sinus stuff, I get these like key zone low
grade things. But I don't know. I say this to
warn all the time. Is it's just life in itself
is tired. I mean every day we're just it's the
hamster wheel. Well that's what I say to him. It's
just every day it's just do over. I did all

(02:05):
this yesterday. Why do I have to do this again?
All the same, all the cleaning, although where you're going,
all that I need to you know, it's like it
just gets exhausting.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
But am I right in saying, out of the three
of us, you are the least repetitive in your sleep?
Meaning like for me, no matter what I know, if
I'm not in bed and laying down and kind of
asleep between eight thirty nine, I'm really wrecked for the
next day. So that's like I can't stay till ten
or eleven, and I do that, but you don't sleep
the same time all the time.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
That kind of changed when I went through that health thing,
like I do.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
I think they told you, right, get on a better
sleep schedule.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
I actually sleep less, but it's consistent.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
So I used to take a pre bed nap from
like seven to nine, just lay down and fall asleep
for a little bit. I'd wake up a little bit
before nine just to get him up. Usually falls asleep
on the couch, shut everything down, go right back to bed.
But like I'm just going to bed when he does.
I'm nine till like three forty five in the morning, right,
So it's consistent. It's not quite seven.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Hours, and you're not sleeping in the day anymore.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
No, no, And even when I was, it wasn't in
the day. It was not till like seven at night.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Diana Sanifani did yesterday and health talked about just hitting
the snooze, like really, how damaging it is.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
To that sew like we don't ever think.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
See we always think that when you're sick or when
you're not right, that it is a medical It's not
like I guess really going to sleep and getting that solid,
continuous sleep is important for your body, like like it's
it because you In other words, it's hard to pinpoint
because you're like, well, what's wrong with me?

Speaker 2 (03:36):
But not sleeping is are a big issue for Well,
that's when our body repairs. That sounds that's right, that
is true.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
But like I am so jealous of people who can
fall asleep instantly, stay asleep, doesn't have problems sleeping, doesn't
need an aid.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
To go to sleep every night.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
I mean there are I feel like that is rare
to find people who don't have any sleep issues.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
That's all me really, Yeah, I can. I can fall asleep,
you bet the drop of a hand. I have nightmares
all night.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I wish I had any kind of dreams, but no,
I don't. See.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I won't name names, but I but there are people
that I work with that I find that the people
that complain most about the lack of sleep still tend
to sleep more than anyone.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
I know.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
It's weird.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Like, I mean, you know, well, I say, like Erico,
who I work with, I'm working with today. She's filling
in for Amy, like she has said to me. She goes,
Oh my god, I'm so tired. I'll just I'll go
home today at eleven o'clock and i will sleep from
eleven till three, and then I'll get up and I'll
run to the store and stuff and then and then
I know she goes to bed at seven. I'm like,
that's all. That's like double this, that's triple to sleep.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
I guess she part cat.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
She might be, and she says like she'll she'll say
and that's it. She'll say she's exhausted, and I'm like,
but you got more sleep yesterday than I haven't four days.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
Me though, some people just require like I'm someone who
needs like a solid twelve hours to be like nice,
and I'm still tired throughout the day.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Yeah, well you're on the Jill program, Alison's sister.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Yeah. Yeah, anyway, so there you go.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
The moral to that whole conversation is the average American
only feels healthy nineteen days a month.
