“At the age of 10 you get up and go to school and it fits in with our nine-to-five lifestyle, Kelley said. “When you are about 55 you also settle into the same pattern. But in between it changes a huge amount and, depending on your age, you really need to be starting around three hours later, which is entirely natural.

凯利说：“10岁时，你每天早起去学校，这符合我们朝九晚五的生活习惯，大约55岁时你也很适应这个模式。但这中间的时期有很大的变化发生，根据你的年龄，你的确需要把上课时间往后推迟3小时，这是很正常的。

Ignoring our natural circadian rhythms could lead to exhaustion, frustration, anxiety, weight gain and hyper-tension, he said, and could make a person more prone to stimulant or alcohol use and risk-taking.

他还说，忽视人体自然的昼夜节律将会引发疲惫、沮丧、焦虑、增重和高度紧张等症状，还会使人更容易服用兴奋剂、饮酒以及冒险。

“This is a huge issue for society, Kelley said. “We are generally a sleep-deprived society but the 14-24 age group is more sleep-deprived than any other sector of society. This causes serious threats to health, mood performance and mental health.

凯利说：“这对社会来说是个不小的问题。当今社会，我们普遍都缺乏睡眠，但年龄14到24岁的人群比任何其他年龄段的人都更缺乏睡眠。这会严重威胁人们的健康、情绪表现和精神健康。
