Summary

Our study aims to build on emerging evidence showing relationships between gut health, sleep and brain functions. To achieve this, our study aims to test the feasibility of using non-pharmacological interventions: a psychoeducation-based intervention (enhanced sleep education - ESE) and a dietary supplement (Saffron extract), to improve sleep in older adults with insomnia complaints. Our study also aims to test the feasibility of using wearable and commercially available EEG headband technology to measure objective sleep quality in the home, which will allow for a reliable and ecologically more valid sleep research.
