Scientists from the British University of Loughborough, after studying the duration of sleep in humans, concluded that women should sleep at least 20 minutes longer than men..

British scientists have studied the effect of sleep duration in 210 middle-aged women and men, and as a result, have found that lack of sleep for the fair half of humanity has more serious consequences.. So, in women, the brain is prone to multitasking, which allows them to perform several actions at the same time, however, it works much more intensely than a man's, and therefore requires more time to sleep for full recovery.

As part of the experiment, scientists proved that the fairer sex needs to sleep on average 20 minutes more than men in order to fully restore the brain.. At the same time, experts note that the main problem of women is that their sleep is not as deep as that of men, so they wake up much more often..

Lack of sleep can threaten to irritate the psyche, cause depression, anger, and also negatively affect the cardiovascular system.. At the same time, sleep deprivation has a much less negative effect on men and has almost no effect on their mood..
