If you find yourself constantly reaching for the snooze button in the morning, there is good news: It’s not as bad for you as medical experts previously thought. According to a study by researchers at the University of Notre Dame, there isn’t much difference between waking up to one alarm or using two or three alarms.
“If you need an alarm because you’re sleep-deprived—that’s the issue,” says Aaron Striegel, professor of computer science and engineering at Notre Dame, in a press release about the study, which was published in the journal Sleep.
