A man can invest in an expensive mattress, buy a fitness tracker, and religiously close his activity rings, then sabotage his sleep with a double espresso at 4 p.m. Modern life offers plenty of ways to optimize everything except the hours spent recovering from it.

Late caffeine, evening alcohol, irregular schedules, and the habit of treating snoring as a harmless nuisance can all interfere with restful sleep. Some problems respond to simple changes. Others deserve more than another pillow purchase.
