Hello, I'm Liz Arl and welcome along to Age Better. It is a Monday and I'm really looking forward to answering your questions and sharing some of the science-back knowledge and tools to help you thrive today and, of course, in the years to come. So on that note, if you have a question that you'd like me to answer, please do get

in touch with us. All the contact details are in the episode description and at the end of the show.

Well, coming up today then, Zana has a question about broken sleep. And Phil wants help with

diet hacks to support our bones as we age. Yeah, not just for midlife women, you see.

And I'll be sharing my thoughts on peptides for Vicky

and offering tips on how Kathy can help to boost her low mood, the natural way.

And lastly, we're going to be talking about something completely fascinating,

and that is structured water. What is it? And can it

benefit you? Well, let's start with a question from Zana and you write, hi Liz, I can't

thank you enough for all your hard work you put into these

informative podcasts. I lie down with my LED mask on and learn so much. I love that. I've got that

image in my head now. My questions are if questions, am I allowed to? Well, go on then.

Firstly, if I wake up in the night around three or four o'clock and then finally go back

to sleep, maybe an hour later, does this count as getting the needed six to seven hours of

recommended sleep if the sleep is interrupted? Okay, curious. And then secondly, you go on to say,

I can't find this information out anywhere else. If I eat de-frosted frozen berries with my breakfast, have they been washed with no nasty chemicals lurking?

Thank you.

Okay.

Right, Zana, are you lying comfortably under your mask?

Then I shall begin.

So let's look at interrupted sleep.

And, you know, this is something that actually I thought about recently because I track my sleep. I've got a little sleep app on my phone. I like it. It's called sleep cycle. It's just a really common one. And the reason I like it is I can switch my phone off, i.e. I don't have it on Wi-Fi. It's on airplane mode and it still works. So I'm not getting any of the EMF or any of that.
