> Helping people get a good night's sleep -- without drugs -- would likely help, if only to stave it off in those at risk. Are doctors not already telling people to get good night’s sleep? Are healthy diet and exercise not already universally recommended? Do we not already warn people against smoking and excessive drinking? Have we not implemented sin taxes to disincentive these unhealthy behaviors? Obviously these efforts, while beneficial are not even close sufficient. Thus there is a large unmet need for therapeutic intervention. Whoever is able to meet that need will be handsomely rewarded, and rightly so, because they will have meaningfully improved the health and quality of life of many many people.
