But did you know what are the effects of sleep deprivation on your health?  That the lack of sleep can also have serious consequences when it comes to your overall health? Lack of sleep has the same effect on your immune system as illness and physical stress as well as increasing your risk of numerous chronic ailments such as diabetes, Alzheimer\u2019s, insulin resistance and obesity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adults\nneed 8-9 hours of sleep per night while children need anywhere from 8-12 hours,\nwith 10 hours being the average amount of sleep needed. Even losing one hour of\nsleep per night has been shown to increase inflammation, decrease immune\nfunction, and raise the risk of diabetes, cancer and stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DID\nYOU KNOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleep\ndeprivation has the same effects of having a blood alcohol level of .10 percent\nwhich can impair judgment, physical movements and mental focus!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of\nthe worst things you can do is take sleep aides or sleeping pills. Research\nshows that the risk of certain cancers is 35% higher for people who use\nsleeping pills and they are nearly four times as likely to die from any cause\nthan nonusers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleep\ndeprived mothers have double the risk of delivering more than six weeks early,\nresulting in premature birth, than mother\u2019s who get plenty of sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your\nmemory is affected by how much sleep you get! Lack of sleep has been linked to\nlower academic performance and memory recall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleep\ndeprivation increases your risk of obesity, stomach ulcers, osteoporosis, high\nblood pressure and cancer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lack of sleep\nleads to premature aging, both mentally and physically as well increases your\nrisk o f depression and anxiety. 87% of depressed patients showed major\nimprovements after resolving their insomnia, with symptoms disappearing after\neight weeks<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lack of\nsleep is also linked to increased risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer\u2019s\ndisease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that you understand the effects of sleep deprivation your health lets look at what you can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WHAT\nYOU CAN DO:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turn your\nbedroom into a sleep haven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Computers,\ncell phones and television have no place in the bedroom if you want to increase\nyour sleep quality. Reduce any noisy interruptions such as removing your pet\nfrom the bedroom and the use of a white noise machine to reduce outdoor noises.\nBlackout curtains and turning off or covering all sources of light can greatly\nincrease your body\u2019s ability to get deep, restful sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep a\nconsistent schedule<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Try going\nto bed and waking up at the same time each day. This will allow your body to\nbecome accustomed to a routine so it can regulate your circadian clock so you\ncan fall asleep and stay asleep all night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Get\nplenty of bright sunlight exposure in the morning and at noon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exposure\nto bright light first thing in the morning signals your body that it\u2019s time to\nwake up and stops production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin. Outdoor\nsunlight is best so taking a walk outside in the morning or midday will help\nanchor your circadian clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exercise\nDaily<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides\nreducing your risk of cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders,\nexercising will help your body rest and sleep more soundly. You should try to\nexercise at least three hours before bed or earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep your\nroom temperature low<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between 60 and 68 F is the ideal room temperature for sleeping. If your room is cooler or warmer, it can have a negative effect on your night\u2019s sleep. Try to keep your room in this range to try and attain optimal core body temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visit your <a href=\"https:\/\/chiropractorintempeaz.com\/index.php\/contact-us\/\">Tempe Chiropractor<\/a> for a free Health Consultation and evaluation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SLEEP DEPRIVATION AND YOUR HEALTH We all know that we don\u2019t feel as good after a poor night of sleep.
