The Philippines ranked third among countries with the worst sleeping habits, according to a recent study.
In research conducted by Australian bed company Onebed, data revealed that Filipinos average 6.13 hours of sleep per night, which is below the global average.
Additionally, the country has the highest noise pollution level among the top 10 countries studied, with a score of 55.60. Other factors contributing to poor sleep quality in the Philippines include an Air Quality Index of 31 and a stress level of 7.30.
The study also noted a high volume of Google searches related to sleep deprivation, indicating that many Filipinos are struggling with sleep issues.
“The Philippines ranks third, marked by a composite score of 0.87. The country suffers from the highest levels of noise pollution at 55.60 and stress among the top 10, severely affecting sleep quality. The average sleep duration in the Philippines is 6.13 hours per night, and the high number of sleep-related Google searches shows that people are still struggling with sleep problems,” the survey said.
The Philippines is followed by the United Kingdom and Mexico in fourth and fifth places, respectively.
