How Good Eight Hours Of Sleep Can Benefit Your Daily Life by paddiboy: 4:05am On Jul 22, 2019
It’s so essential to get that eight hours of sleep a night, but it’s not as simple as we age. There are many reasons why we are losing sleep, like hormones, stress, food we eat, or medication. Whatever the reason, trying to get that much-needed sleep is so crucial to our bodies.

What happens to your body if you don’t sleep Well?

Increased risk of type 2 diabetes: Women who sleep less than five hours a night have the most risk of type 2 diabetes.
Elevated blood pressure: Just one night of no sleep can cause your blood pressure to spike. If your sleep problems are long term, you are more at risk for long-term heart problems.
Weight gain: Not sleeping increases a biochemical in your body called ghrelin. This causes your body to gain weight rather quickly making exercise more of a priority in your life.
Short and long-term memory problems: Certain stages of sleep are needed to support nerve connections to the brain. Without these stages, you will experience memory loss.
Increased stress: Not sleeping one night or multiple nights can cause you to become irritable and more stressed out towards things that do not normally bother you.
