How much sleep time is at the age of 56?
The 56-year-old should sleep 7-9 hours.
According to the research results of experts from the National Sleep Foundation in the United States, the normal sleep time for adults should be 7-9 hours. Therefore, the 56-year-old sleep time should be 7-9 hours. Due to individual differences, sleep time can be slightly below or beyond this range, and will not have a negative impact on the body. However, serious deviation from this range requires consideration of the impact of the disease.
The common clinical sleep reduction is insomnia. Common causes: ①Psychological factors: such as excessive pressure in work and life; ②Environmental factors: such as the living environment is too noisy and crowded; ③mental diseases: such as anxiety, depression, and physical diseases. Common sleep increases, such as narcolepsy. Typical manifestations are uncontrollable sleep attacks, cataplexy, hallucinations before going to bed, and sleep paralysis. It can also be seen in cerebrovascular diseases, such as thalamic infarction, and patients often appear lethargic.
For the unexplained sleep time is significantly shortened or prolonged, and there is no remission for a long time, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to confirm the diagnosis.
