What is a false statement regarding sleep habits?

You should exercise right before bedtime to get good sleep
Avoiding caffeine before bedtime helps improve sleep quality
Maintaining a regular sleep schedule is beneficial
Using electronic devices before bed is recommended

The correct answer is: You should exercise right before bedtime to get good sleep

Your body naturally produces melatonin during the evening hours, which is why you typically feel sleepier at night. However, exercising stimulates the production of adrenaline, making it more difficult for your body to naturally wind down at night. Additionally, using electronic devices before bed can suppress the production of melatonin, making it difficult to fall asleep. While maintaining a regular sleep schedule and reducing caffeine intake are beneficial for improving sleep quality, exercising before bedtime and using electronic devices are not recommended for optimal sleep habits.
