How many hours of shuteye is best? Here’s what the latest science says about sleep
With the release of two studies that try to untangle the relationship between sleep and brain health, specialists are offering some reassurance for anyone who’s feeling anxious about optimizing their shuteye.
New research published Monday suggests that getting less than the recommended seven or eight hours of sleep each night might not be as harmful as expected for some people’s brains.
That follows a study printed last week that suggests daytime napping could have some positive effects.

Some Dutch People Seeking Euthanasia Cite Autism or Intellectual Disabilities, Researchers Say

“At this point in time, the policy is outdated, and I’m hoping we can see some changes,” said Hartman.
A staff nurse at LHSC for the past 12 years, Hartman, who is eight months pregnant, has been put on an unpaid leave of absence by the hospital because of her vaccination status.
She believes the softening of other COVID regulations recently, like mandatory masking and patient screening, means she should be allowed to return to work.
