Based on recent findings,can you explain what happens to people who sleep ​less than six hours a night?</p><br /><br />\r\n <p><strong>Dr. Alexandra Hart:</strong> ⁣Absolutely. ⁢Sleep is ‌an​ essential‍ component of overall health. For most adults, getting 7-9 hours of sleep per night is ideal.

The study found that insufficient sleep heightens the risk of stroke⁤ considerably. People who​ sleep less than⁣ six hours per night have a 65% increased risk,and those sleeping less than ​seven hours face a 62% increased risk.
