Surely you’ve heard the most diverse theories about our biological clock, in addition to the countless benefits of respecting sleep cycles and the harm of ignoring them.
In general, people believe that sleeping 7 to 8 hours is enough at any age, but this is not true in all cases. Think of babies, for example. In general, they sleep a lot more than the elderly, right?
O awesome.club I brought all this information and will explain case by case, according to each age group.
the lack of sleep
Many of us wait for the weekend to rest well, sleeping a few hours during the week. In addition, we still fall into the temptation to check social media minutes before bed, leaving the brain even more alert precisely at the time and place where we should be relaxing to sleep.
First, disrupting the first moments of sleep negatively affects the quality of the following hours. As a result, we will have a lower quality of sleep and a lower performance during the day.
And, of course, not getting enough sleep weakens the immune system and can have serious consequences.
Not getting enough sleep increases your risk of developing the following conditions and illnesses:
Weakness Depression Changes in hormone function Cardiovascular disease Decreased visual ability Diabetes
Not sleeping well also noticeably affects your body and appearance. As a result, your weight will increase, you will begin to get dark circles under your eyes, and your skin will turn pale. This lack of sleep also results in poor concentration, decreased efficiency in daily activities, and premature aging.
Sleep according to age
Age affects not only our physical condition and physiological functions. Experts indicate what sleep time is needed for each age. Note that as we get older, the need for rest decreases.
Babies aged 0-3 months need more sleep. Children under 18 must sleep more than 8 hours a night. After that, the amount of sleep required is significantly reduced and changes only after the person reaches 65 years of age. But don’t forget that each person has their own needs and that these numbers can be variable.
