REAL LIFE NEWS: SEE, I TOLD YOU HAVING A LIE-IN WAS GOOD FOR YOU!

by Hazed

Regular readers will know that I am not a morning person. I hate getting up in the morning, and always wish I could have just a little bit more time in bed before having to face the day.

Now it looks like my hatred of getting up is justified, because a new study shows that an extra hour’s sleep can make all the difference to mental agility, as well as to genes that affect inflammation, immune response and response to stress.

Admittedly, the study was a small one, with just seven volunteers split into two groups, but it is still very interesting. Read more about it at the source link below.

Of course my problem is that, as a night owl, I don’t want to go to bed at night either – so getting up later in the morning probably wouldn’t increase the amount of sleep I get, because I’d adjust my bedtime to match!
