Scientists discovered a rare gene mutation!

Scientists have found a rare mutation in the SIK3 gene that allows some people, known as natural short sleepers, to feel fully rested on just four to six hours of sleep without harming their health.

This genetic twist helps the brain finish its essential restorative work more efficiently in less time. SIK3 now joins genes like DEC2 and ADRB1, which are also linked to needing less sleep.

These discoveries show how strongly our genes shape our sleep patterns and could one day lead to new treatments for sleep disorders. Would you want to be a natural short sleeper?
