"Though the old saying goes - 'Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise". In modern times, going to sleep before 12 a.m (earliest) is equivalent to missing one half of your life. There is a whole new world that wakes up when the normal world goes to sleep.
The National Sleep Foundation, an organisation in the United states, through a plethora of studies have demonstrated that an adult needs a minimum and maximum of 8 to 9 hours of sleep. The benefits of sleeping 8-9hrs? - Long life (people who sleep long, live long), alertness, sharp memory etc....
The researchers from the University of warwick on their behalf have spent many a sleepless nights to prove that lack of proper sleep can double the risk of death from cardiovascular diseases and oversleeping can double the risk of death.
"SLEEP" - considered to be the epitome of laziness is afterall one of the main factors that keeps a man Brisk and away from death's risk.
