Recommended amount of sleep for a healthy adult: a joint consensus statement of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research Society
Open accessAbstract
Sleep is essential for optimal health. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) and Sleep Research Society (SRS) developed a consensus recommendation for the amount of sleep needed to promote optimal health in adults, using a modified RAND Appropriateness Method process. The recommendation is summarized here. A manuscript detailing the conference proceedings and evidence supporting the final recommendation statement will be published in SLEEP and the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

Adequate sleep per night, around 7 hours or more, attenuates oxidative stress and neuroinflammation and lowers the risk of neurodegenerative disease.
“Adequate amounts of sleep per night, around 7 h or more, powerfully attenuates oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, key drivers of neurodegeneration, lowering the risk of neurodegenerative disease [205].”
From The Impact of Neurotoxin Proteins Trafficked by Primary Cilia and Extracellular Vesicles in Neurodegenerative Diseases (2025) · cites this paper as [205]
The Discussion & Future Directions section recommends 7 or more hours of sleep per night for optimal health in adults aged 18–60. It does not say that this duration attenuates oxidative stress or neuroinflammation or lowers neurodegenerative-disease risk; it says the biological mechanisms underlying sleep need require further investigation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
