Too Little Sleep Destroys DNA?
I talk to my patients about the danger of not sleeping all the time. Unfortunately, it’s a common problem that affects 75 million Americans.

Studies, including a large meta-analysis of 470,000 adults, found that those who slept less than six hours developed a:1,2,3,4,5
48% increase in the incidence of coronary heart disease
30% increased risk of dementia
15% increase in the incidence of stroke
50% cancer risk
