Studies carried out in the premier university in California,
university of California, have concluded that a wide range of
problems can be gotten as a result of sleep spanning up to nine to
ten hours. These problems include insomnia, feeling tired after
waking up, difficulty staying sleep and other health problems.
In
the study, it was observed that the ‘eight-hours’ sleepers are
not troubled
by
much health issues, but the
‘7-hours’ sleepers were plagued with
numerous sleep disorder including insomnia and waking up from sleep
feeling incredibly fatigued.

This
study was carried out by
presenting a sleep questionnaire to a thousand and four adults,
asking them on the number
of hours they slept every night, how easy they fell asleep, whether
they woke up at night, whether they had woken up early in the morning
and if they could get back to sleep again and if they they
felt tired throughout the day.
At the end of the research, it was finding was that those who had
more than eight-hours sleep had experienced a host of the entire
sleep disorder listed on the questionnaire than those whose sleep
time span seven to eight hours.
It was also noted by one of the researcher that those who had slept
for more than eight hours found it difficult to sleep as a result of
the long time they had spent in bed. According to the study, a good
way of curbing insomnia was ‘spending less time in bed’.
Depression
was traced to sleeping for longer hours at the end of the research.
