Interesting topic, Sleeping too much might sound harmless, but it can actually be risky. Oversleeping is linked with higher chances of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and even a shorter lifespan . It can make you feel groggy, cause headaches, slow down your metabolism and even affect your mood and focus.

Stick to a healthy 7–9 hours of sleep. If you’re sleeping much more than that and still don’t feel rested, it may be time to talk to a doctor.
