While glass of wine at night may help you drop off, the alcohol disrupts sleep and leads to a poorer night's rest, they say. This is because drinking alcohol to fall asleep interferes with sleep homeostasis - the body's internal timer that regulates sleeping and waking.

Recent findings suggest that sleep plays a housekeeping role that removes toxins in your brain that build up while you are awake.
