    Rise and shine. Morning exercise is good for sleepless nights in postmenopausal women. Exercise could help set circadian rhythms, or the body's internal clock, which in turn regulates sleep-inducing hormones such as melatonin.

    menopausal and postmenopausal women sleep less than six hours per night
    during the work week, while only 12 percent of premenopausal women (with
    the exception of pregnant women) sleep less than six hours. Lower levels
    of estrogen may cause sleep problems among older women, either directly,
    or indirectly. A lack of estrogen can cause sleep-disturbing hot flashes
    and night sweats, Tworoger says.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.psychologytoday.com/rss/pto-20031113-000001.html"><P class="text">Sleep deprivation can cause women to suffer from memory disorders,

    body temperature must go down to induce sleep,</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/CDC90444-7424-4D90-AD31-98FEBA08114E/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
