Napping may be a warning sign of underlying health problems or declining health and older adults that's according to a new study in the Journal of Jamma Network, open as in Piers Maria Gaudoy reports. In the study researchers looked at data from more than 1,300 adults who were followed
for up to 19 years. Participants were 81 years old on average. Their nape activity was tracked with wearable devices. The study found that napping in the morning and taking longer, more frequent naps were linked to a higher risk of dying in older adults.
The researchers note that while briefnaps can help improve alertness and alleviate fatigue, excessive napping later in life has previously been linked to poor health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease and neurodegeneration. The researchers say the findings suggest tracking napping patterns in older adults could be a clinically useful way to spot health problems early on.
