It is recommended that seven to eight hours of sleep everyday is healthy particularly for adults. But this range varies depending on amount of sleep previously lost, illness,activities during the day,and even the type of food consumed. Some people sleep for six hours while some for ten hours. It is not advisable to deliberately deprive oneself of sleep. Sleep is necessary for the body to rest and recover the lost energy.
Lack of adequate sleep can cause headaches, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and can even affect memory. It can also affect the ability to concentrate, solve problems and give good judgements. There is therefore the need to have enough sleep to stay healthy.
