Myths about sleep

About seventy countries around the world use daylight savings time. Each spring, clocks

get moved forward one hour because the daytime hours are longer in the summer. Each fall,

clocks get moved back one hour because the daytime hours are shorter in the winter.

Adjusting the clocks helps the environment because we use less energy.

However, there are health benefits with daylight savings time too. If you sleep one hour

more because of the change in time each fall, your chances of a heart attack decrease.

Unfortunately, the number of heart attacks increases in the spring when you lose an hour of

sleep.

Since we are talking about sleep, did you know there are a lot of myths about sleep? For

example, you should sleep seven or eight hours of sleep, not five or six. Some people say

they need less sleep, but this is untrue and there are consequences. If you sleep too little,

you will work less effectively. Not enough sleep also damages your heart and immune

system. In addition, if you drive with six hours of sleep or less, it's almost the same as

driving drunk. You will have worse reaction times and more accidents. Lastly, if you usually

sleep too little during the week but then sleep a lot on the weekend, this pattern is also

harmful. Irregular sleep patterns can cause stress.

So what can you learn from this article? Use the change in time to make some lasting

changes to your sleep habits.
