The Dangers of Lack of Sleep...

With our fast-paced, ever-progressing society, it’s not a huge surprise that sleep is something that people are getting less and less of. With technology always changing, and a new gadgets coming out every month, many more people are staying up later on their iphones or laptops or video games or just watching TV. This can create a habit of bad-sleeping patterns. And with a sleep problem, other health problems will begin to show up shortly thereafter.

The short-term effects of missing out on sleep include poorer performance, both at work and in other activities of daily life, and a worse memory. You are also at a higher risk for work or car accidents while excessively tired.

The long-term consequences are even more severe. A continual lack of sleep over the years can lead to high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, obesity, ADD, depression, and an overall poor quality of life. Before letting your sleep problems lead to even more health problems, speak to your doctor or chiropractor about steps you can take to get a more restful night’s sleep.
