A recent study of 60,000 people in the United Kingdom found that regular sleep patterns play a stronger role in overall health than longer sleep patterns. People who have less regular sleep patterns have a higher risk of death before age 75. The optimal sleep duration was found to be between 6.5 and 7.5 hours per night. Research has long held that lack of sleep has adverse health impacts, and this study further emphasizes the need for a balance that prioritizes the right amount of sleep for personal needs and a consistent sleep schedule to achieve optimal sleep health. #SleepHealth #SleepPatterns #MortalityRisk #SleepRegularity
