Why Do We Need To Sleep?

Sleep gives our body a rest after those long working hours, it also gives our brain a chance to sort things out. Well, that is what the scientist said, according to them sleeping helps the brain sorts and stores information, replaces chemicals, and solves problems. The amount of hours needed would be around 8 - 10 hours depending on our age.

Here are some really good reason why we should not skip our sleep!

  • Skipping one night’s sleep makes a person cranky and clumsy.
  • After five nights without sleep, a person will hallucinate
  • Six days sleep restricted to four hours pushed healthy young male volunteers into a pre-diabetic state.
  • Inadequate sleep works on hormone production in other areas as well. Without enough sleep, the central nervous system becomes more active, inhibiting the pancreas from producing adequate insulin, the hormone the body needs to digest glucose.

    A groundbreaking University of Chicago study in 1999 showed that just six days of sleep restricted to four hours pushed 11 healthy young male volunteers into a pre-diabetic state. - The Ithaca Journal
