Optimal Sleep Duration: Foundation for Lifelong Health
Received Date: Aug 04, 2025 / Published Date: Sep 01, 2025
Abstract
This compilation highlights the profound impact of sleep duration on human health. Both short and long sleep durations are consistently linked to adverse outcomes, including increased risks of cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline, and all-cause mortality. Deviations from optimal sleep also contribute to metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, compromised immune function, and mental health issues. Furthermore, sleep influences obesity in younger populations, chronic pain in older adults, and even gut microbiota composition. Maintaining adequate sleep, typically 7-8 hours, is crucial for promoting overall physical and mental well-being across the lifespan.
