This starts with a regular and optimal bedtime.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We constantly seek to advance our sleep-related tools, which include sleep pattern analysis, sleep coaching, and optimizing sleep environments. They also include a feature that can detect signs of moderate to severe sleep apnea<a href=\"#_ftn7\" name=\"_ftnref7\">[7]<\/a> \u2014 a sleep disorder \u2014 and help you take proactive steps.<\/li>\n<li>Now, <strong>we are providing additional tools for better sleep<\/strong> by suggesting an optimal bedtime based on your lifestyle and sleep patterns while sending reminders to help you stick to it.<\/li>\n<li>By analyzing your past three days\u2019 sleep patterns, the feature evaluates your need for sleep pressure and your circadian rhythm to calculate a bedtime that maximizes alertness the next day.<\/li>\n<li>This feature is particularly helpful for those trying to optimize their sleep after periods of irregular bedtimes.

Antioxidants, nutrients found in many healthy foods, are molecules that neutralize these free radicals, helping prevent chronic illnesses and promote healthy aging.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/watches\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy Watch<\/a> to measure carotenoids, which are antioxidants found in green and orange vegetables and fruits, stored in your skin.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/watches\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy Watch<\/a> employs a feature to measure carotenoids in as little as five seconds via its advanced, light-activated BioActive sensor.<\/li>\n<li>These insights reflect behavioral changes.
