Improving deep sleep may prevent dementia, study finds

I've been stuck on <30 minutes of deep sleep for as long as I've had an Apple watch and probably much longer. Some observations I recently made:

- Japan has these drinks with 200mg of GABA, I don't know if it was the 20,000 steps we were doing every day or the drinks but on the days I had it deep sleep was often (not always) closer to an hour. Strangely enough GABA is illegal here in NZ so I'm trying L-Theanine with less obvious effects.

- Exercise (even 2h+ moderate) doesn't have any effect, adjusting caffeine doesn't seem to either

- A warm shower immediately before bed strangely did seem to have a considerable although not perfectly consistent effect

- Experiments ongoing

Edit: am i wrong, who doesn't sleep better and easier with that outcome in-hand?
