It turns out a good night’s rest can actually add years to your life. In a new study that will be presented at the American College of Cardiology/World Congress of Cardiology joint conference (ACC.23/WCC) next month, researchers found that young people who have more beneficial sleep habits are less likely to die early.
The study, which included data from 172,321 people with an average age of 50 and 54% women, found that following certain sleep habits could add almost five years to a man’s life expectancy and about 2.5 years to a woman’s life.
