Group A is the group that having sleep disorder and barely sleep over 5 hours each day, while group B is the normal group that sleeps over 7-8 hours per day.

The experiment has been conducted for over two years and the result was truly shocking!
According to the survey, 11 out of 15 people for group A has at least gained 8-12kg during the research, while there are only 2 out of 15 people for group B that having weight gained 3-4kg!

Linda: It mostly depend on your personal need, Linda. If you're feeling refresh after you're wake up, then it no need to sleep longer than than 6 hours or otherwise...
