In a recent story in Time magazine, a 2002 study found that Americans receiving between 6-and-a-half and 7-and-a-half hours of sleep live the longest, and that a higher death risk is associated with people receiving too little or too much sleep.
In fact, more than 1-million American adults participated in the study that found sickness is U-shaped, meaning people receiving very short sleep and those receiving very long sleep are linked to more illnesses, and those range from depression to obesity and heart disease.
The report also said that people suffering from insomnia should restrict time spent in bed and this treatment is actually more powerful and effective than using prescription sleeping pills.
