Study provides more reason to sleep better, longer
The risk of catching a cold increases when you get fewer hours of quality sleep a night, researchers reveal.
The quality and quantity of sleep are important factors that can be a predictor of immunity and the likelihood of developing the common cold.
A new study suggests that you are three times more likely to catch a cold if you get less than seven hours of sleep a night. Getting poor quality sleep boosts your risk even higher – making you five times more susceptible.
