Lack of Sleep in Teens Linked to Higher Risk of Illness
"We showed that there are short-term outcomes, like more acute illness among shorter-sleeping adolescents, that don't require waiting months, years or decades to show up," Orzech continued. "Yes, poor sleep is linked to increased cardiovascular disease, to high cholesterol, to obesity, to depression, etc., but for a teenager, staying healthy for the dance next week, or the game on Thursday, may be more important. This message from this study is clear: Sleep more, and more regularly, get sick less."Ummmm, No. Correlation does not imply causation. Even if it is chronological.
Who gave you a PhD?
Disturbed sleep IS A SYMPTOM of subclinical illness.
Try the reverse configuration- get sick less, sleep better.
