The sleep you really need

Sleep is important for health and having lack of sleep will bring down people’s well-being explaining they have to have the right amount of sleep. These days, many people are reminding relatives to sleep more or they will get lack of intelligence and will also get diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, including heart attacks.

Scientists have done an experiment on 1600 patients, according to the outcome, majority couldn’t think properly. Sleep deprivation disrupts mood and will usually cause a moody behavior.

A sleep foundation did research in 2015 to find out how many hours of sleep we need. They came up with the answer of teens having 8 – 10 hours of sleep and “anywhere from 7-11 may be more appropriate” (Savvy, 1). Seniors around 65 or older should sleep from 5-9 hours. As the human body gets older, it needs different sleep ranges.

“Sleep more”, “you’ll get dumb if you don’t sleep enough”, “No wonder your classmates are smarter, they sleep earlier”. These saying are all true, if only more people take it serious, the world may become healthier and humanity may thrive properly without relatives weeping from a family member with Alzheimer’s or the decrease of human population from heart attacks.
