The Science of Weighted Blankets

A recent study showed that a weighted blanket could help you sleep through the night, MSN reports.

The good news comes from Swedish researchers, who tested the effectiveness of weighted blankets on 120 adult patients with insomnia for four weeks as part of a randomized, controlled study, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine reports.

They found that test subjects in the weighted blanket group were 26 times more likely to experience a decrease of 50 percent or more in their insomnia severity compared with the control group, and were 20 times more likely to achieve full remission of their sleep condition.
