This article about sleep and health made some good points.
Main point: “Deficient shuteye — meaning not enough or low-quality sleep — has been linked to poorer dietary choices, increased risk of chronic diseases, decreased lifespan and reduced psychological well-being, suggesting that sleep should be higher up on everyone’s to-do list.”
Things to consider:
- “A lack of sleep may result in making poor food choices.”
- “Increases in chronic disease and deficient sleep have many scientists wondering how, or if, the two are related.”
- “Growing research shows that children with deficient sleep are at higher risk of obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and mental health and behavioral problems.”
