The big lie about sleep | Raghukulholidays

 

The phrase "the big lie about sleep" can refer to a couple of ideas:

We all need 8 hours of sleep: This isn't exactly a lie, but it can be misleading. The truth is, sleep needs vary depending on age and individual factors. Most adults actually function best on 7 hours [YouTube video on sleep myths]. There's even some evidence a U-shaped curve exists, where too little or too much sleep can be detrimental [article on sleep myths].

Lack of sleep is a badge of honor in our culture: This is more the target of the "big lie" concept. Society often glorifies burning the candle at both ends, and not getting enough sleep. The reality is chronic sleep deprivation is linked to many health problems [article on sleep deprivation and health].

There are also myths about what constitutes good sleep, like needing to fall asleep instantly or powering through tiredness with caffeine. So, the "big lie" might be that skimping on sleep is okay, when it's actually a pillar of good health.
