Joe Rogan has always been open to any kind of new information his guests present in front of him. During one of the episodes of The ‘Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan invited Matthew Walker, a professor of neuroscience. In that podcast, the pair talked a lot about the human brain and the science behind sleep.
While elaborating on the importance of sleep and the effects of sleep deprivation, Walker revealed that men who normally sleep for 5 to 6 hours on average have lower amounts of testosterone. Walker also mentioned that less sleep can reduce men’s age up to a decade with respect to their performance such as physical well-being, strength, sex drive etc. He said:
“Men who sleep 5 to 6 hours at night will have a level of testosterone, which is that of someone ten years their senior. So lack of sleep will age you by a decade in terms of the critical aspect of wellness, fertility, muscle strength, sexual performance.”
Rogan was absolutely stunned by the consequences of lack of sleep and couldn’t believe them.
“Wow, ten years that’s incredible,” said Rogan.
Lack of sleep is one of the most common problems in different ages of men such as teenagers as well as grown adults. It’s something that has been around for some time now and can be caused by many different parameters. One of the most prominent reasons is the use of mobile phones, laptops etc and also the rise of social media.
