De cât somn ai nevoie pentru a îmbătrâni sănătos? Cum influențează somnul modul în care organismul funcționează

A recent study indicates that both insufficient and excessive sleep can accelerate aging in various organs and is linked to multiple health issues. Researchers analyzed data from nearly half a million participants, revealing that those who slept less than six hours or more than eight hours showed signs of accelerated biological aging. The study utilized biological aging clocks to assess health outcomes, finding that moderate sleep duration correlated with better health. Insufficient sleep was notably associated with mental health disorders, while excessive sleep might indicate underlying health problems. Further research is needed to clarify the relationship between sleep quality and aging.
