Sleep deprivation causes some serious problems

You know, the less we sleep, the less healthy we are. However, a sleep expert is on a mission to get people to sleep more.

Sleep researcher and neuroscientist Matthew Walker, PhD, is the author of a new book, “Why do we sleep? And while the title is short and sweet, Walker gives a powerful message on it: “The less you sleep, the shorter your life is”.

But why does Walker make such a bold claim? According to his research, insufficient sleep puts your body at risk for three serious health concerns.

Insufficient sleep weakens the immune system

Only 4-5 hours of sleep in just one night can lead to a 70 - percent drop in your body's <x0-second natural killer cells” This makes it harder for the body to avoid the disease. That's for everything, from common cold to cancer.

If insufficient sleep is a chronic problem, you can prepare for prediabet and increase the risk of diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and obesity.

Even losing an hour of sleep can be fatal

According to Walker, Ora Ditore sees an apparent increase in health problems. When people lose an hour of sleep, their reaction slows down, car accidents increase, and the number of heart attacks increases as well.

Lack of adequate sleep increases the risk of cancer

Sleep deprivation interferes with the production of melatonin in the body, which can also lead to greater risk of cancer. In fact, the World Health Organization (OBSH) has gone as far as it said that the night shifts are a possible “cancerogenic”.

So if you feel that sleep is not important, think again. Without sufficient sleep, the body's immune system is weaker, and we put ourselves at greater risk for serious health conditions, including heart attacks, diabetes and cancer, Klankosova.tv broadcasts.
