Title: Sleep Hygiene Does Not Fix Insomnia in Men Over 40, New Evidence Review From Dr. John Spencer Ellis Finds

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, 7th Nov 2026 — Dr. John Spencer Ellis, a men’s health, sleep and longevity coach with more than three decades in human performance, has published a 33-page evidence review on sleep in men over 40.

Most of them did not know.So the typical man over 40 is tired, waking at 3 a.m., and reaching for the only advice anyone has given him.What sleep hygiene actually isSleep hygiene is an educational package, and nearly every article written about sleep reproduces it: keep a regular schedule, avoid caffeine and alcohol near bedtime, keep the bedroom dark, cool and quiet, exercise but not too late, no screens before bed, do not nap, do not watch the clock.It is sensible. It is also what most men have already tried, repeatedly, before they ask for help.What the trials foundIn 2024, Furukawa and colleagues published a component network meta-analysis in JAMA Psychiatry covering 241 randomized trials and 31,452 participants. The design isolates what each individual component contributes when added to everything else.Sleep hygie...
