FOX TOPIX: How much sleep do you need to function each day?

Other recent research has shown that skimping on a full night’s sleep, even by 20 minutes, impacts performance and memory the next day; and, getting too much sleep, not just too little of it, is associated with health problems like diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease.
