My daughter suffers from insomnia and has tried any number of remedies.

She loves when ignorant articles like this come out and tell her that the solution to not sleeping well is to sleep more.

My daughter in law too. But in some ways she likes not sleeping because she gets a lot of work done. So I believe she has trained her brain in how she sets her priorities. When she has a quiet week or goes on vacation, she doesn’t have the same problem. My dr told me once he thought I was afraid to sleep and lose control of those hours. After much contemplation and many years, I believe he was right.

I suffer from insomnia, and I agree. A good night’s sleep is beneficial? Who woulda thunk? Idiotic article.
