Greetings, iam James Wright, Take it easy.
Ah, sleep - we all need it, no matter our age! But as we get older, it can be harder to get the restful sleep we need. From tossing and turning all night to waking up feeling exhausted, it’s a struggle that many of us face. Ugh! Let’s take a look at why this happens and how to get the best sleep possible.
How Much Sleep Do You Need By Age? [Solved]
Well, if you’re a newborn, you should be getting between 14 and 17 hours of shut-eye per day. But if you’re a teen, 8 to 10 hours is the way to go. And for adults aged 18 to 60, aim for at least 7 hours of sleep each night. If you’re 61 to 64 years old, try for 7 to 9 hours. Bottom line: get your zzz’s!
Sleep needs vary by age; as you get older, you need less. For example, toddlers need around 12-14 hours of sleep a day, while adults only need 7-9. Whoa! That’s quite a difference! But it makes sense; as we age, our bodies don’t require as much rest. So if you’re feeling tired all the time, make sure you’re getting enough shut-eye for your age.
