The Gossip Everyone’s Whispering About Sleep Duration and Aging
If sleep had a social life, sleep duration would be the friend everyone talks about behind their back. New research keeps circling back to one dramatic idea: sleep duration might be linked to how fast your biological aging behaves. In other words, your sleep duration could be quietly influencing whether your body feels like a lively 25-year-old or a “why do my knees click when I stand up?” 60-year-old.
Scientists aren’t saying sleep duration is the only villain—or hero—but they are paying attention to it like it just walked into a room wearing a red carpet outfit. And honestly, sleep duration is starting to enjoy the attention.
