Our bodies need sufficient sleep each day to rest our organs and brain, thus maintaining quality of life. Lack of sleep leads to fatigue and low energy levels for daily activities.
According to Sleep Foundation recommendations, newborns (0-3 months) need 14-17 hours of sleep per day. Children aged 1-2 years need 11-14 hours, while adults aged 26-64 years need 7-9 hours.
Based on these recommendations, the amount of sleep needed for optimal health and well-being decreases with age, as shown in the graph below.
