Research found drinking even a small amount of alcohol before bed can adversely affect sleep quality. People who do not get enough REM sleep can experience emotional problems. (original.newsbreak.com)

Aperitif, not nightcap, is the way I roll. Found out a long term ago it is bad for my sleep to be even remotely buzzed, at all. I sleep sober, only. If I am having a drink it's before supper, if I miss the window I just don't, no big deal.

But I know so many people who say they sleep better with one drink at night before bed, are they all wrong?
