About this listen
Source article: https://www.prevention.com/health/sleep-energy/a65175910/negative-health-effects-of-taking-a-nap/
The source explores a recent study investigating the connection between daytime napping habits and mortality risk in middle to older adults. While short naps might offer some benefits, the research suggests that longer, later, or inconsistent naps could be linked to a higher risk of death. The article also discusses potential reasons for this association, such as napping being a symptom of poor nighttime sleep or underlying health conditions. Finally, it touches on lifestyle factors, like physical activity, that might mitigate this risk and emphasizes the complexity of the relationship between napping and longevity.
