Or maybe the early stages of Alzheimer’s messes with the sleep cycle and suffers of the disease get too much or sometimes I get too little?

Diseases are not always the outcome of poor personal decisions or habits, they are the cause behind them. We can’t seem to shake the idea that sickness is a manifestation of some sort of sin. It often is but it is an always.

Genetics dictates a hell of a lot when it comes to health... yes some personal decisions can impact it... but genetics is a HUGE factor..

After all, would anyone have taken the bet that Bob Dylan and Kieth Richards and Ozzy Ozborne would still be alive in 2019 back in 1985?

Not all sleep is the same... 6-8 hours of sleep for someone with sever sleep apnea, is not the same as even 4 hours of sleep for someone without it.

My father and I lived completely different lives from a health stand point. He drank and smoked..a lot. He also served in two wars for a total of 4 years. That can’t be good for you. I worked out, jogged, and ate what most would call a somewhat healthy diet. He died of a heart attack at 58, I had a cardiac arrest at 59. I often wonder if genetics is ever considered in these studies.
