Many studies claim that adults need to get seven to nine hours of sleep per day to be fully functional during their waking hours. But here’s the most common problem because many people do not sleep enough due to the demands of everyday life. In too many cases where you go to bed late and waking up too early is a daily routine for many. So we must learn well what are the risks of a bad break.

One of the consequences of poor sleep is the weight gain. If someone is trying to lose weight, getting enough sleep is essential to success as the hormones that regulate satiety and control hunger longer. Having lack of sleep, levels of grueling (a hormone that regulates appetite) increases, and levels of lepton which signal the brain satiety, diminish. Increased appetite to eat a person makes more than the body needs and certainly can lead to weight gain.

Mental performance is also one of the consequences of sleep deprivation, as the concentration is one of the first things to fail when a break is not adequate. You may notice a lack of sleep when performing simple tasks of any type or perhaps falling asleep at work or at home makes the mental performance of people who do not have a good routine of rest fail more than usual.

It is very common for people suffering from lack of sleep are often moody, irritable or even depressed and usually end up being less resistant to stress factors that can be found in any corner. Physical performance is also a matter to be considered as sleeping, your body regenerates and renews in order to start a day full of energy. Lack of sleep is also often linked to heart disease, diabetes or hypertension.
