t is no understatement that Americans are facing a crisis of sleep debt. For one reason or another, Americans struggle to get the rest they need, with roughly a third of adults getting less than the minimum seven hours needed on a given day. Such sleep deprivation has resulted in sleep debt becoming a more and more common crisis across America. While Americans are familiar with the fatigue that results from not sleeping enough, the longterm health effects of each hour of lost sleep are far more significant than needing extra coffee in the morning.
