Extra Hour of Sleep? Not so Fast. Daylight Saving Time officially ends at 2:00 am this Sunday. But “falling back” doesn’t necessarily mean you catch up on all that sleep you’ve been missing over the past 6 months. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has even called sleep deprivation a public health crisis, saying that one-third of adults don’t get enough sleep. Yikes.
So how much sleep do we need? The National Sleep Foundation recently issued new recommendations on how much sleep we should all be getting.
They are based on a review of research and a consensus from a group of 18 experts in sleep, science, physiology and medicine.
There are now nine age categories, some of them new. Anything more or less than the identified range is simply not recommended:• Newborns (0 to 3 months) — 14 to 17 hours per day
• Infants (4 to 11 months) — 12 to 15 hours per day
• Toddlers (1 to 2 years old) — 11 to 14 hours per day
• Preschoolers (3 to 5 years old) — 11 to 14 hours per day
• School age (6 to 13 years old) — 9 to 11 hours per day
• Teens (14 to 17 years old) — 8 to 10 hours per day
• Younger adults (18 to 25 years old) — 7 to 9 hours per day
• Adults (26 to 64 years old) — 7 to 9 hours per day
• Older adults (65 and older) — 7 to 8 hours per dayvia CNN
Eat, Sleep, Train, Repeat.
Your sleep-time is just as important as your diet and workouts.
Are you getting enough (or too much) sleep? 💤
