A good night sleep is essential to living fully and thriving in the daytime.

If one of your New Year's resolutions is to improve your sleep quality then you're not alone.

Statistics taken from last year have revealed that 36% of UK adults struggle to get to sleep and nearly half of people have trouble falling asleep once a month.

Sleep plays an important role in our physical and mental health, meaning that getting a good night of sleep should be a huge priority for everyone.

There are, of course, many products on the market which can help aid your sleep. But with so many out there, how do we know which ones are worth trying?
