Ideal sleep time for different ages

An old question like the earth: "How much time do I need to sleep every day?". The National Sleep Research Association (NSF) and a group of 18 leading scientists have evaluated more than 300 sleep studies so far to try to offer the ideal sleep time for groups. Different age.

The recommended sleep time list for different age groups has been published in NSF's sleep journal. However, NSF also notes that there is no accurate sleeping time for each person and this list is based on scientific research to date.

Teenagers aged 14-17 should sleep 8-10 hours a day.

Here is the time sleep recommended by scientists for different ages:

1. Babies (0-3 months): 14-17 hours per day.
2. Newborns (4-11 months): 12-15 hours per day.
3. Children (1-2 years): 11-14 hours per day.
4. Preschoolers (3-5): 10-13 hours per day.
5. Children of school age (6-13): 9-11 hours per day.
6. Teenagers (14-17): 8-10 hours a day.
7. Youth (18-25): 7-9 hours per day.
8. Adults (26-64): 7-9 hours per day.
9. Older people (65 years and older): 7-8 hours a day.

For adults, the recommended sleep time does not change compared to the long-standing advice. However, the noticeable point in this category is that teenagers and school-age children should sleep much more than adults.
