If you sleep less than 7 hours every day, then be careful! Lack of sleep not only increases fatigue and irritability, but also has a dangerous effect on the brain, heart and immune system. Due to continuous lack of sleep, the risk of serious diseases like weak memory, rapid weight gain, diabetes and high blood pressure increases manifold.

Not only this, it can also have a bad effect on mental health, which can lead to problems like stress, anxiety and depression. So if you are not getting enough sleep, then know the scary changes caused by it and easy ways to improve it!

1. Bad effect on the brain:

Lack of sleep prevents the brain from functioning properly, which leads to memory loss. Sleep deprivation for a long time can increase the risk of problems like brain fog, difficulty in concentrating and dementia.

2. Obesity and weight gain

Sleeping less slows down the metabolism, which leads to the accumulation of fat in the body. Also, lack of sleep increases the amount of hunger-increasing hormones and decreases hunger-reducing hormones, which leads to the desire to eat frequently and increases obesity.

3. Risk of heart disease

People who sleep less than 7 hours a day are at a higher risk of high blood pressure and heart disease. Lack of sleep can increase cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke.

4. Weak Immunity

Sleep is an important part of the body's repair process. Lack of adequate sleep weakens the immune system, making the body easily vulnerable to viral infections, flu and other diseases.

5. Mental stress and depression

Lack of sleep increases the amount of stress hormone (cortisol), which increases the chances of stress, anxiety and depression. Prolonged lack of sleep can also increase mood swings and irritability.
