You might be surprised at how much sleep your body needs because the majority of people don't get enough of it. How much sleep do you average per night?
Caffeine isn't good for you either. Stay away from stimulants, it's just a band-aid for what you're body is really craving, high quality sleep and rest.
Healthy diet and physical activity also effect your sleep requirements. Eat super unhealthy and you'll need more sleep. Work out real hard and you'll need more sleep. |
Yes and no. There are certain conditions where it simply makes no difference how much sleep you get. Depressions, adrenal fatigue, high stress, certain allergies etc can all leave a person tired if they sleep 20 hours per day.
And of course it's the quality of sleep too. Sleep apnea can make somebody think they are getting plenty of sleep when the quality is very poor and the body is not recovering.
