How plants in the bedroom affect sleep, according to NASA

LAURA FOLE — Mon, 12 Jan 2026 22:18:57 +0100

Plants are living beings that do not seem to have much power in our daily routine but, deep down, they do affect us. Melatonin, gadgets and perfect routines are not necessary if you have plants nearby. At least, that's what a new study led by a team associated with NASA says, and reported through C-astonhair.uk, which mentions that a simple houseplant could be behind that more restful sleep. In fact, it is believed that up to 37% can be increased. It sounds almost unreal, but the researchers say that the effect comes from something very specific like small changes in air quality
