Would sleep really add years to your life?

6 hour of sleep has the same effect as 9 hours of sleep, so doesn't that also mean your body has aged 9 hours in a 6 hours span as well?

If anything, you would just be going through life slightly faster than everyone else.

Are you actually trying to suggest that our lifespans are determined by only the number of hours we spend awake? Damn, guys, I'm gonna go hibernate until something relevant to my life is gonna happen!


I wasn't saying that at all. In a 24 hour day, you sleep 6 hours but your body is effected like you have slept 9 hours. So your body has ages 9 hours in a span of 6 hours. You stay awake for 18 hours. Well in that 24 hour span, your body had aged 27 hours.

I guess it also matters what you plan to do with those "extra" three hours a day. More anime? More time on b8? More time to read? More time to study?

I dunno, I feel like the sleeping power simply benefits people who just have horrible sleeping habits (I would be one of them). When say if better IQ someone is more likely to not only think about ways to make sleep more efficient, but would actually take action to do it(ie: learning optimal sleep cycles, knowing time management, etc).

Maybe it's just me, meh
