Sometimes that is time to urgently change the order of the day, honking is quite unexpected things.
30 to 40% of adults at least once in life, faced with insomnia. And 10 15% suffer from chronic lack of sleep. How not to fall into the ranks of the afflicted? Listen to yourself: lack of sleep talking not only constant desire to lie down and yawning. Sometimes that is time to urgently change the order of the day, honking is quite unexpected things.
1. Decreased performance
You will at some point understand what they do much less work than before. Lack of sleep reduces your attention, concentration and ability of decision-making. If your body lacks sleep, it means that not enough strength for memorizing information. Indeed, during sleep the brain continues to process the information, putting it on different shelves of memory. This is extremely important. While chronic sleep deprivation brain hasn’t all the “to sort” in your head get confusion.
2. Increased appetite
The less you sleep, the faster you gain weight. It’s simple: night wakes up munchies, and instead of sleeping, the man trudges to the refrigerator. In addition, when sleep deprivation levels of the hormone cortisol (he is responsible for carbohydrate metabolism) in the blood increases, it also causes the feeling of hunger.
People who sleep less than six hours per day, 30% higher risk of getting overweight or even obese than those who spend in bed at nine o’clock.
3. The lack of libido
It is clear that if you don’t give your body enough rest and recovery time, energy not to be missed and on more pleasant things. For example, on physical love. According to recent studies, sleep-deprived people don’t show any interest in sex (Hello gamers!).
4. Drawn to drink
Scientists say: disturbed sleep or chronic shortages not only contribute to the deterioration of the General human condition, but also increase the risk to become addicted to alcohol. Not enough sleep, a person feels fatigue. And wants to relax due to alcohol abuse… But only exacerbated by sleep problems. Sleep well. But in the morning Wake up nervous and with a rapid heartbeat. Again not slept. A vicious circle.
And “bessones” is much more difficult to quit Smoking compared to those whose body gets enough good night’s rest.
5. Problems with speech
Lately you stumble over when speaking? Trying to find the right word, confused in speech? This is one of the signs of cognitive impairment. And it is possible that such violations occurred due to lack of sleep. This actually leads to the destruction of brain cells, say scientists from the University of Pennsylvania health science centre (USA). And hope to compensate for the lack of sleep atsyom at the weekend – big mistake. It turns out that speech and other cognitive functions are unable to fully recover even after three days of a full night’s sleep. It is important to sleep regularly. What you all want and wish.
WHAT ELSE?
Annoyed and discouraged
Lack of sleep is associated with symptoms of depression, irritability, nervousness and anxiety. According to the study of the division of sleep medicine at Harvard medical school, if you sleep an average of four and a half hours a day in a week a person is faced with mental exhaustion.
You began to feel that something is wrong with the eyes? Sometimes you can’t see, and swim in the fog? This can be caused by sleep deprivation. When brain cells receive less rest, they cease to work as before, and this adversely affects the quality of your vision.
Another sign of lack of sleep, inability to cope with stress. It is proved by scientists from the University of Massachusetts in the United States.
