Make a profound impact
So, what are the specific impacts?
What are the dangers of not getting enough sleep to the human body? Most obviously,
All participants were asked to go through a set of photos and then go through some correct and wrong information related to the photos (e.g., describe the photo in red as blue).
The results showed that participants in the TSD and PSD groups were more susceptible to misinformation and were more likely to choose the wrong information when answering questions than the control group.
This study reveals that sleep deprivation, especially across the board, can
Not getting enough sleep for a long time
These changes occur in the body
Sleep is essential for human health, and short-term sleep deprivation can impair cognitive function. If this condition lasts longer, it will have a more serious impact on physical and mental health.
1. Increase the incidence of migraine
People who have had migraines should know that migraine attacks can drain all your energy, and insomnia will help migraines occur. A study spanning 11 years revealed that people with long-term insomnia had a 40 percent higher risk of migraine after 11 years than those without insomnia problems, and a 50 percent higher risk of chronic headaches.
2. Increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
Lack of sleep can disrupt normal blood pressure circadian rhythms, causing systolic and diastolic blood pressure to not decrease at night, while the sympathetic nervous system remains active, causing high blood pressure. This condition can increase the risk of high blood pressure and heart disease by 30%.
3. Affects mental health
In addition to the impact on physical health, sleep deprivation can also affect mental health, and it is seen as a risk factor for mental disorders such as depression and anxiety. A large population study in Norway found that insomniacs had a 4.2-fold higher risk of anxiety disorders and 2.7 times higher risk of depression than non-insomniacs.
4. Accelerate brain aging
The study also found that frequent difficulty falling asleep was associated with memory deterioration, weakened executive function, decreased language ability, visual construction ability and slowed processing speed after 14 years, which equated to 2.2 to 3.4 years of early aging. These may be related to symptoms such as depression that occur.
5. Shorten life expectancy
Chronic sleep deprivation also increases the risk of death and shortens life expectancy.
A University of Sydney study showed that women and men with poor sleep quality had a reduction in CVD-free life expectancy by 1.80 and 2.31 years, respectively. Among them, the biggest impact came from sleep-related breathing disorders, which can reduce CVD-free life expectancy by 6.73 years in men and 7.32 years in women.
How to improve sleep quality?
In order to avoid these problems caused by lack of sleep, we can take a series of measures to improve our sleep quality.
In short, sleep for us
