Sleeping Too Much Increases Mortality Risk

[Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen, MDs] Sleeping Too Much Increases Mortality Risk By Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen, MDs At the beginning of the 1999 comedy "Office Space," corporate tech worker Peter's hypnotherapist dies in the middle of his session, leaving him in a trance. As a result, he stops caring about his job, which he hates. The next morning, he lies in bed ignoring repeated voicemails from his boss, and doesn't get up until 3:30 p.m., at which point his girlfriend leaves a voice message telling him she's breaking up with him. Special: [The Death of Black Coffee?]( Peter discovered what a new analysis of 74 studies confirms: Oversleeping can cause serious problems. The research, reported in the Journal of the American Heart Association, found that people who sleep for more than eight hours a night are more likely to die prematurely than folks who sleep the recommended seven to eight hours. And if you push it to 10 or more hours nightly? Then you have a 50% higher risk of death from stroke and a 49% higher chance of death from heart disease. The researchers think that heart woes can come first, causing exhaustion and oversleeping. But if depression is making you stay hidden under the covers, then chances are you aren't eating right, exercising regularly, or enjoying a supportive social life — all of which are risk factors for heart disease too. So if you find yourself hibernating, get a heart health checkup. Then talk to your doc about starting talk therapy and a nutrition and exercise redo. Also, set your alarm for eight hours after you go to bed. --------------------------------------------------------------- Special Message --------------------------------------------------------------- ADVERTORIAL Latest studies have found that 1 tiny tweak to your morning coffee puts your body into fat-burning mode for the rest of the day.
