如果你是早起鳥型……
In an Australian study, participants who woke up early were less likely to be overweight than night owls -- even though both groups slept the same number of hours. Although this study involved young children, the results are likely applicable to adults as well, says Allen Towfigh, M.D., sleep specialist and neurologist affiliated with Weill Cornell Medical Center and New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. "If you love to sleep in, you may not be getting enough sleep, in which case you need to go to bed earlier to increase your total sleep time." Towfigh recommends adults strive for seven to nine hours of sleep per night.
某個澳大利亞研究表明,較之于夜貓子,早起的人不太容易發(fā)胖——即便他們的睡眠時間完全一樣。盡管該研究也涉及到小孩,但結(jié)果很可能也適用于成人,醫(yī)學(xué)博士艾倫-托費說道。他是威爾康奈爾醫(yī)學(xué)中心以及紐約市紐約長老會醫(yī)院的睡眠專家。“如果你愛睡懶覺,或許會常常覺得睡眠不足,這種情況下你應(yīng)該早點上床來增加總體睡眠時間。”托費建議成年人每晚睡足七到九個小時。
