05 Problems You Face Because of Less Sleep

Nightly sleep is very important for health, but there are countless people in the world who are unable to sleep at night or are unable to get enough sleep.

According to the Sleep Health Foundation, more than 70 million Australians suffer from sleepless nights or suffer from sleep deprivation.

Experts in this regard say that not getting enough sleep can lead to disorientation, skin disorders, and numerous illnesses.

Affects Memory and Ability to Think

Sleep is an important ingredient for improving mental health, according to Sleep ORG, when the human is awake, his brain releases a chemical ‘adenosine’; which induces sleep desire.

Experts explained that when a person falls asleep, our body begins eliminating this chemical so that it is refreshing when you awake after sleep.

But if you do not get enough sleep, your body’s natural system of emissions of these chemicals will be affected.

According to the bed threads, if one of your night’s sleep is affected for some reason, it has a negative impact on the performance and memory of the brain, which can make you unable to perform any tasks well in the day. The ability to think is also affected.

Impact on the Immune System

Our body’s immune system eliminates the germs and bacteria that enter the body.

If you do not get enough nap at night, it can severely affect your immune system.

As a result, the germs that enter the body immediately attack the health and the person soon becomes ill and it takes a long time to recover.

Dull Skin

We must have heard that getting a good amount of nap can make your face go numb, if you nap poorly at night or you complain about not getting enough nap, it can affect your skin.

Experts explain that when we nap, our body releases growth hormones that help to keep the body refreshed and energized.

If you do not get enough nap, the body will stop the release of the hormone called ‘collagen’, which affects the face and skin.

Difficulties In Overcoming Temperament

Lack of sleep directly affects a person’s emotions.

Not getting enough nap can help you to control your mood, which leads to many difficulties in life.

According to the Sleep for Health Foundation, lack of nap makes a person irritable, angry, and demoralized, and makes a person look unhappy with his life.

Chronic Health Problems

People who do not nap at night become more common, such as diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure.

On the other hand, experts say that nap deprivation also poses risks for obesity-related illnesses.

Experts say that our body releases a special hormone ‘leptin’ to stay energized, and if a person does not get enough nap, our body stops the hormone.

The body, in turn, releases a hormone ‘circulating’ which in turn makes the person feel more hungry.

How Many Hours Should We Sleep At Night?

Primary school children:

According to experts, primary school children need 9 to 10 hours of nap daily.

Teenagers

Children between the ages of 13 and 19 need to nap 10 hours a day.

Adults need to nap for about 8 hours a day, and if you feel tired in the afternoon, getting a little nap in the afternoon is good for health.
