Yesterday, actress Jennifer Aniston joined Dr. Oz to discuss her new breakout role that may be a wake-up call for many women. Aniston discusses playing a woman battling painkiller addiction, and Dr. Oz explains why prescription painkiller abuse has become a hidden epidemic.
On her questions for
Dr. Oz, Aniston says: "I have so many questions for you by the way. I have a
HARD TIME sleeping. Sleep is a tough one for me. My brain, the committee in my head, if I wake up at three in the morning I just start having conversations and they won't shut up and then I can't get back to sleep. I do have 3 animals and a human being in the bed, so there are all these distractions. I got an app on my phone that allows you to sort of track your sleep rhythms. I don't really quiet ever get into the deep, deep, deep sleep. And am I going to die young?"
On stopping exercise for her new movie, Aniston opens up: "It's interesting when you stop exercising. It really was interesting how my Serotonin levels went down. My stamina was shot. I was cranky. I was irritable. I'm usually really not any of those things. I found myself short. I was hungry like crazy. Then, you realize exercise is just so important to our soul. Not just being able to fit into skinny jeans, to your state of mind, your soul, all of that. I surrendered into it. I actually didn't fight it. I didn't think oh this is horrible. It was such a part of what I enjoyed about mining this character."
