How Quality Sleep Slows Aging by Reducing Inflammation
Summary
This article explores the critical connection between sleep quality and the aging process. It explains that during sleep, the body performs essential repair and renovation operations, and that getting 7-9 hours of quality deep sleep helps reduce inflammation, which is a key driver of aging. Poor sleep increases inflammation and accelerates aging across nearly every bodily system.
