Scientists have told how people are threatened by lack of sleep

If a person is constantly lacking sleep, it has a serious impact on his body and well-being. Scientists from Great Britain have warned about the most dangerous consequences of lack of sleep.

Under normal conditions, it is desirable to sleep 7-8 hours. Otherwise, attempts to get rid of excess weight will be fruitless even with a proper diet. Lack of rest forces a person to consume more calories, which only provokes the gain of additional kg.

Lack of sleep also has a negative effect on the skin, causing accelerated aging. Research shows that when a person doesn't sleep well, he can develop heart problems, leading to an increased chance of having a stroke or heart attack.

Scientific works confirm that lack of sleep reduces libido. For men, in the long term, this threatens erectile dysfunction, and it becomes more difficult for women to experience orgasm.

With a lack of sleep, a person feels tired and broken, there are problems with concentration. Scientists also prove that lack of sleep has a connection with hormonal failures.

It can lead to a decrease in glucose intolerance and insulin sensitivity, while cortisol levels increase.
