“…Sleep complaints and poor health are believed to operate in a bidirectional fashion such that poor sleep negatively impacts normal, healthy aging; as health declines, sleep is disrupted, and this negatively affects overall health and begins the cycle anew (Cochen et al, 2009). In addition to increased comorbidities and medication use causing poor sleep, factors such as irregular postretirement sleep schedules, a reduction in regular social activities, low exposure to natural light, and age-related psychosocial stressors such as financial strain, relocation, and loss of friends and loved ones may contribute to poor sleep with advancing age (Bloom et al, 2009;Fragoso & Gill, 2007).…”

A severe disruption of the circadian timing system occurs in AD as indicated by alterations in numerous overt rhythms like body temperature, glucocorticoids, and/or plasma melatonin (Weldemichael and Grossberg 2010 ;Harper et al 2001 ;Mishima et al 1999 ).…”
