Sleeping less than 6 hours a night in midlife raises risk of dementia 30 per cent, study finds

Calling all those who are sleep-deprived: We interrupt your yawns with an important announcement. If you re trying to get by on about six hours or less of sleep a night during the workweek, you re setting up your brain for future failure, according to a new study published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications. After following nearly 8,000 people for 25 years, the study found a higher dementia risk with a sleep duration of six hours or less at age 50 and 60 as compared to those who slept seven hours a night. In addition, persistent short sleep duration between the ages of 50, 60 and 70 was also associated with a 30 per cent increased dementia risk, independent of sociodemographic, behavioural, cardiometabolic, and mental health factors, including depression, the study said.
