[00:00:00]Your sleep may be aging your organs faster.

[00:00:03]A new nature study looked at UK Biobank data from about 500,000 people.

[00:00:09]Researchers compared sleep duration with 23 aging clocks across 17 organ systems: brain, lung, [music] liver, immune, skin, endocrine, pancreas.

[00:00:23]The scary part, the curve was U-shaped.

[00:00:26]Under 6 hours was linked to faster aging. Over 8 hours was linked too. The lowest aging [music] signals landed around 6.4 to 7.8.

[00:00:37]So the answer is not just sleep more. It is avoiding both extremes.

[00:00:42]And this was association, not proof sleep alone causes your organs to age.

[00:00:49]But if your normal is 5 hours or 10 hours, your body may be waving a much bigger warning flag.
