Dhanbad. Getting enough sleep is extremely important for health. If we do not get proper sleep, it can have a serious effect on our body and mind. On this subject, Dr. Ratna Priya Mal of the local Community Health Center (CHC) said that a minimum of 8 hours of sleep is necessary to stay healthy. If a person sleeps less than this time, he may have to face many diseases. Let us know what the expert advised regarding proper sleep.
Lack of sleep can increase the risk of these diseases
Lack of sleep can cause problems like blood pressure, sugar, acidity and stress. According to Dr. Ratna Priya, lack of sleep increases the level of stress in the body, which can increase the risk of serious diseases like blood pressure and sugar. Apart from this, lack of sleep also reduces the ability to concentrate, due to which a person is not able to fully concentrate on any work. This problem not only affects efficiency, but also has a bad effect on mental health.
Memory also becomes weak
Lack of sleep can make a person irritable, and his memory can also weaken. Dr. Ratna Priya says that if a person tries to live a normal life despite getting less sleep, he may gradually develop serious health problems. Lack of sleep for a long time can also increase the risk of heart diseases.
Both body and mind remain healthy
On the contrary, if a person gets enough sleep, both his body and mind remain healthy. By getting enough sleep, the energy level in the body remains intact, and the person feels refreshed throughout the day. This also improves his efficiency, and he is able to do every work well. Apart from this, getting enough sleep also improves the functioning of the brain, which sharpens memory and increases the ability to concentrate.
This is the danger of sleeping too much
People who sleep more than usual also need to be careful. According to Dr. Ratna Priya, sleeping too much can cause lethargy in the body, and a person may gain weight. If a person sleeps for a long time continuously, he should consult a doctor. It is possible that there is some internal problem in the body, which needs to be checked at the right time.
In the end, Dr. Ratna Priya suggested that every person should sleep according to their body’s needs. If someone has a habit of sleeping less or more, then he should consult his doctor so that proper examination can be done and proper advice can be given. Balanced sleep is very important to maintain health.
