Quality sleep is essential for healthy living, as it helps maintain the body's homeostasis. However, in today's busy life, sleep deprivation has become a common problem, causing physical and mental deterioration.
When the regular circadian rhythm is disrupted, the body and brain's equilibrium is destroyed. This weakens neurocognitive functions and reduces vigilance. Prolonged sleep deficiency creates fatigue and lethargic feelings, affecting daily activities.
Sleep helps our brain with information consolidation and keeps the body's regeneration process active. However, disruptive lifestyles can exacerbate this, causing impairment.
Adequate sleep is extremely important for staying healthy. It's not just for recuperation, but also helps to reduce disease resistance and susceptibility. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure regular and adequate quality sleep.
