flag Study links longer, irregular naps, especially midday, to higher death risk in adults.

flag A recent study suggests that certain napping habits may increase the risk of early death, especially in middle-aged and older adults. flag Researchers found that longer naps, irregular sleep patterns, and naps taken between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. were linked to higher mortality rates, even after adjusting for health and lifestyle factors. flag This contradicts recommendations for short "power naps" and highlights the need for further research to understand the connection between napping and health outcomes.
