Yeah. I mean, when we think about lifestyle, when we say, what is your lifestyle? We always talk about how lifestyle affects health. And what I say, lifestyle is what, when, and how much we eat, sleep, and move around or physically active. So out of these three, for eating and for moving, you have to actually make a conscious effort and you have to invest.

For example, for eating, you have to invest in good food and all that stuff. And then for exercise, also you invest. Sleep is the simplest one. You don't have to do anything. You just have to go have a set time when you have to go to bed and just lie down. And that's the simplest thing out of all these three that one has to do.

And it's just mind-boggling why so many people just can't get that one correct. Because once you get seven hours of restorative sleep, then everything else falls into place.

Yeah. I mean, this is, there's also another twist to that because after the, we humans are the only species that can control fire. That's the differentiator, means no other species can control fire. So that means we also control light. We also control warmth. And if you look at last 150 years of human history, human civilization,

Our civilization actually flourished by being active late into the night. Right. So that means when we are active late into the night, sacrificing some amount of sleep, then we can create wealth. We can be more creative. We can make a career. And that's what has percolated down to...

students, high school students, college students, and we always demand that they, even for many families, they say sleep is not that important. Just get four to five hours of sleep and then get back, do your homework and all that stuff. But then the question is, can we show benefit, tangible benefit, by letting students or teenagers sleep? And this is where science comes into play.

So, for example, a few years ago, Horacio de la Iglesia, who is a professor in UW, University of Washington, did a very fundamental study. What he found was, well, most people, most parents who have high schoolers, they know that the high school students, they wake up just before the class begins and then you have to drag them to school.
