When it comes to sleep, many people are not getting enough, but as it turns out, getting too much can be a sign of an underlying health issue.
When it comes to sleep, many people are not getting enough, often muscling through the day fueled by multiple cups of coffee. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 out of every 3 people are sleep deprived on a regular basis. That’s important since consistently not getting the sleep your body needs is associated with several health problems, including a higher risk of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, and stroke.
Sleeping too much is associated with several other health issues, including type 2 diabetes and heart disease, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. “The study is associating Alzheimer’s with oversleeping, which does not mean one is causing the other,” Aneesa Das, MD, sleep medicine physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center , tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “Association does not mean causation.”
Das notes that excessive sleepiness is often due to a mood disorder, such as depression. “If you’re sleeping all day, you have to look at your mental health,” she says. “That would be my first concern for people. Number two, people could be oversleeping because of endocrine disorders, such as hypothyroidism.”
