Per the American Sleep Apnea foundation, more than half a billion Americans suffer from a <strong>sleep disorder<\/strong> while as much as thirty million people experience intermittent sleep. One extra hour of sleep can make a world of difference, and here is a pair of reasons why you should try and get more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heart health<\/strong>. Research has shown that those with short sleep increased their risk of coronary heart disease or stroke by just over ten percent compared to those that slept at least six to eight hours. It should be noted that oversleeping is also not a good idea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Depression <\/strong><strong>and mental health<\/strong>. Those who suffer from a sleep disorder such as <strong>insomnia<\/strong> showed a tenfold risk of becoming depressed. Though research is still ongoing, there is also a possibility that not getting enough REM sleep (the deepest sleep state) or poor sleep quality may result in a higher risk of developing dementia.<\/p>\n<p>These two reasons are among the many why you should try and make an effort to get in an extra hour of sleep each night. If it\u2019s the mattress that\u2019s causing your sleep issues, names like H\u00e4stens and Vispring are here to save the day.
