The great Soviet composer Tikhon Khrennikov, already at the age of 90 is deeply loved by night to call his younger friends. They asked him in amazement: "Tikhon, do not you sleep?" "I pity to waste time on a dream!" - Posted the genius of music that satisfied three or four hours of sleep a night.
However, this is just the exception that proves the rule. Scientists from the Italian University Medical School in Naples, in collaboration with British colleagues from the University of Warwick have established a clear link between lack of sleep and premature death. The researchers found that people who sleep less than 6 hours per day, 12% more likely to die before the age of 65 years.
To do this chilling conclusion, scientists have carefully studied the data of 16 large studies that covered more than 1, 3 million people. It was found that lack of sleep leads to heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, type II diabetes, and high cholesterol.
But do not give up no longer with a pillow! Also found that people who sleep too much (more than 9 hours a day) far more likely to die prematurely than those who slept little. In their case, the risk of death at the age of 65 is increased by as much as 30%! But recently we published data of another study, which stated that sleeping for 10 hours a day, people have the best chance to live to 100 years. Oshibochka out?
