Yes I have notice it. My grandmother when she was still alive she will sleep around 11pm and will rise up around 5am. But she is not sleepy anymore. I think once you gorw old your sleep hours ialso decreases.

I think their body requires less and less sleep. Unlike infants who require a lot of sleep.

Does age affect the hours of sleep? Why do old people have less sleeping hours?

My grandfather always does exercises like walking and stretching and keeps him active all day.
