Some experts say that the men who sleep over 10 hours had a 40 percent of risk getting cancer. In their research, the scientists found, the cancer risk was higher in men who sleep too long, compared to those who sleep by the time recommended.
Research which’s conducted by some scientists at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China, involving nearly 26,000 of men with middle-aged and elderly, who have retired from a vehicle company.
In addition, reported by The Sun, this study also found that the men who working at night for more than 20 years, has a 27 percent risk of getting cancer. And, nights workers who did not take a nap have risks double than those who slept even though only 30 minutes during the day.
The man who has these two habits, which is working overtime, does not take a nap after overtime or sleep for more than 10 hours every night, will increase to 43 percent of getting cancer. And, if they do that habit, they are twice more risk to die from the disease.
