How to Get Sick: A Modern Prescription for Illness How to Get Sick: Go to Bed After Midnight This is a great way to get sick. From biblical times to just before the Industrial Revolution, people used to go to sleep and rise with the setting and rising of the sun. This is the natural way to align your peak activity with the body's natural hormonal rhythms. Dr. Joseph Mercola believes the timing of your sleep affects its quality. Dr. Mercola says, "The more hours that you can sleep before midnight, the better off you will be."
