Staying up late may be bad for your health

[KARE 11, May 02, 2018] Love staying up late but have to get up early? A new study suggests it’s not only bad for your health, it could also be deadly! Researchers say people who consider themselves “night owls” face a higher risk of dying prematurely than “morning people”.

Dr. Andrew Stiehm, a sleep specialist at Allina Health United Lung and Sleep Clinic, talked with KARE 11 News to discuss why some people are just “wired” to stay up late and how evening types can reverse those negative consequences (without necessarily becoming morning types).
