Your entire health and wellness system is underpinned by your quality of sleep and is the foundation to one’s physical, mental, and social well-being.
Sleep undeniably affects your physical and mental functioning the next day, your ability to fight disease and develop immunity. A lack of sleep has been linked to all major illnesses including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and stroke.
Sleep is also overlooked when it comes to losing or maintaining a heathy weight. Diet and exercise become redundant if you are not getting an adequate amount of quality sleep. Lack of sleep has been scientifically linked to an increased risk in obesity as it leads to increased hunger, poor food choices and ultimately a decrease in physical activity.
