6. Any lifestyle and other factors potentially associated with sleep problems as per investigator's judgement (e.g. excessive caffeine intake, shift work, long-distance travelling, significant stressors such as active grieving etc.)

7. History and/or presence of clinically significant dis-ease, which per investigator's judgement could interfere with the results of the study or the safety of the subject:

   • Untreated or non-stabilised metabolic diseases, e.g. diabetes mellitus
   • Untreated or non-stabilised thyroid disorder
   • Untreated or non-stabilised hypertension (regular systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg)
