But a in general, it's like what Maria says. You know, too little is not good, and too much is not good either. And I think the too little usually in the literature is the cutoff point of about 6 hours. So definately don't sleep less than six. Hours. Yeah, I'd like to add on the too much sleep point that both Marie and Meredith made. I don't think there is a biologocal basis for too much sleep to be causing harm. I think that what we see in observational studies that consistently show that over 9 hours per day of sleep is associated with increased mortality cardiovascular mortality risk is for methodological reasons. There is something there is under and under underlying factor there that we don't capture this kind of studies don't capture properly and my suspicion, my guess is that it has to do with mental health oversleeping. Perhaps there is no as far as I know, there is no biological mechanism to suggest that too much sleeping can be causing harm to our health, and in any case, in our society, the problem is too little sleep. So, I don't think it's worth going too much. Sleep as public health problem.
