The immune system will be weak
There is talk of strengthening the immune system during the Corona period. But you will be surprised to know that our immune system is affected by not getting enough sleep and if the immunity is weak then any infection, cough, cold, fever, etc. problems surround the person quickly.
Heart attack
When we sleep, it is time for internal repair and cleaning of our body, but due to lack of sleep, the toxic substances of the body are not cleared, and due to this the risk of high blood pressure increases. This also increases the risk of a heart attack.

Your weight can also increase due to a lack of sleep. One study examined the relationship between sleep and weight in 21,469 adults over the age of 20. Those who slept less than 5 hours each night were more likely to gain weight and eventually become obese during the three-year study.
Effect on the mental state
Less sleep also has a direct effect on our mental state. As long as we sleep, our brain also gathers new energy. But due to lack of sleep, the brain does not get refreshed, due to which many mental problems occur and sometimes problems related to memory also occur.

Stress also increases due to lack of sleep and this stress becomes the cause of many problems.

The risk of diabetes increases
