You may have experienced that people around you always tell you that it is best for the human body to keep 7 to 8 hours of sleep every day. Over the years, when we were children and became adults, we had the impression of 7-8 hours of sleep in our minds. Gradually, we accept this concept and strive to ensure that their sleep time can meet this standard. In fact, some people don't need so much sleep to stay focused and focused. Some people's mood and appetite may even be adversely affected by sleeping too long. In short, not everyone needs 7 to 8 hours of sleep. We should find the right time to sleep and eliminate potential risks to our health.
Some sleep experts have come to an astonishing conclusion through a large number of studies on how long the human body needs to sleep. These scientists believe that we are deceived by all the talk about sleep. We may not know how long the human body needs to sleep.
It is possible that some companies that cheat us on sleep are trying to sell goods. For example, we often see some businesses exaggerate the harm of insufficient sleep in TV advertisements. In addition, they will launch some products that look very effective to help us sleep. Some businesses will try to promote the dangers of insufficient sleep to people who are unable to sleep, so as to make them worry about their health problems. After that, these businesses will recommend sleeping pills or devices to them for profit. For people who need to work, some businesses will tell them that lack of sleep will lead to reduced work efficiency. At this time, these businesses will recommend some energy drinks to them and promote the function of these drinks to make up for lack of sleep time.
However, according to the research results of some scientists, excessive use of hypnotic drugs or energy drinks on the market will cause adverse effects on our health. Surprisingly, these commodities that seem to help us keep healthy will even increase our mortality rate.
Experts can speculate about how long we need to sleep according to the data of the experimental results. According to some studies, most people only need to sleep six and a half hours a day to maintain their physical and mental health. In addition, it is worth mentioning that no experiment can support the statement that people need eight hours of sleep every day. Some scientists pointed out that we should not pay attention to the length of sleep, but should pay attention to the quality of our sleep. We should develop the habit of healthy sleep, such as keeping the habit of taking a short nap, not eating food before going to bed, and not relying on the alarm clock to get us up. According to scientific research, our bodies are smart. Our bodies know when to fall asleep and when to wake up.
Worryingly, too much sleep may even increase mortality. If they can't reduce their sleep time, they need to go to the hospital for a physical examination.
In conclusion, for most people, 6 to 7 hours of sleep is enough to keep the human body at its best.
