More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good
Thing
Although the dangers of too little sleep
are widely known, new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also
suffer the consequences.
Investigators at the University of
California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each
weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep, as well as a
number of other sleep problems, than people who sleep 8 hours a night. People
who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep
and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.
These findings, which Dr. Daniel Kripke reported in the journal
Psychosomatic Medicine, demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's
rest may not need to set aside more than 8 hours a night. He added that "it
might be a good idea" for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to
consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed, but cautioned that more
research is needed to confirm this.
Previous studies have shown
the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep -- for instance, one report
demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have
a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep
more.
For the current report, Kripke reviewed the responses of
1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires, in which participants indicated how much
they slept during the Week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.
Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night, arising early in the
morning and being unable to fall back to sleep, and having fatigue interfere
with day-to-day functioning.
Kripke found that people who slept
between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each
sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours. In an interview, Kripke noted that
long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too
much time in bed. As evidence, he added that one way to help insomnia is to
spend less time in bed. "It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a
time in bed, then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake. " he
said.
