By
Image
IMAGE SOURCE, GETTY IMAGES At least five hours sleep a night may cut the over-50s' chances of multiple chronic health problems, researchers say. Ill health can disrupt sleep - but poor sleep may also be a forewarning or a risk itself, they say. There is evidence sleep helps restore, rest and rejuvenate the body and mind - but why the "golden slumber number" might matter remains unclear. The PLoS Medicine study tracked the health and sleep of UK civil servants. All of the about 8,000 participants were asked: How many hours of sleep do you have on an average weeknight?" Some also wore a wrist-watch sleep tracker. And they were checked for chronic conditions, including diabetes, cancer and heart disease, over two decades of follow-up: Those who slept five hours or less around the age of 50 had a 30% greater risk of multiple ailments than those who slept seven hours Shorter sleep at 50 was also associated with a higher risk of death during the study period, mainly linked...

By
.OBASANJO, buhari *Maintains ex-President’s record no match for Buhari’s achievements The Presidency yesterday attacked former President Olusegun Obasanjo over the latter’s New Year open letter where he openly endorsed the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Mr Peter Obi, for the February 25 election.
