Middle-Aged? Not Enough Sleep? Suffer Cognitive Decline?

Middle-aged people who sleep 6-9 hours each night have better cognitive thinking and memory.

Avoid cognitive decline with 6-9 hours of sleep each night

As we age, dementia and cognitive decline become important matters to think about.  It is very important to get plenty of sleep.

Studies show that it does not matter what country you live in, or what cultural or economic or environmental differences there are between them, similar patterns emerge.

In several countries, the following data was reported from 50-year-olds.

1. Men had higher quality of sleep than women.
2. Women experienced longer sleep.
3. Men and women that had too much sleep/or not enough sleep had significantly low cognitive scores.

Sleep is so important in our lives! Unfortunately, it is so under valued, too.
