Sleep – Does 8 Hours Maximize Your Fitness?

June 30, 2020 by Terry Clark

How do 8 hours of sleep affect your health? In the last few years, doctors often ignored sleep. However, this is not the case anymore. Many studies have shown the importance of sleep to overall health and well-being. Therefore, track and analyze your sleep for your overall well-being. In this article, we will explain the importance of healthy sleep habits.

How does getting 8 hours of sleep affect your physical and mental health? Lack of sleep duration and quality can cause serious health issues. Doctors recommend you get a good 8 hours of sleep in a day. Once you develop healthy sleep habits, it can bring many positive changes to your life. Here are some expected 8 hours of sleep benefits that show how sleep affects health.

Boost immunity –

Numerous studies support that sleep has a substantial impact on your immune system. For example, people who sleep less than 7 hours a day have three times greater chances of developing a cold than those who get enough sleep. When you lack sleep for a prolonged period, it severely affects your immunity, thus increasing the chances of developing diseases.

Improve mental well-being –

Sleep and mental health have a strong connection and go hand-in-hand. Getting good sleep can improve your mental capabilities and sharpen your memory. Studies have also shown that sleep plays a vital role in memory consolidation. Another study shows that deep sleep helps make memories. Besides, quality sleep can also help ease depression, stress, and anxiety. A good night’s sleep is the best mood booster.

Good for heart health –

A study shows that it lowers your blood pressure when you sleep, giving your heart and blood vessels a bit of rest. Similarly, if you wake up for a longer time, your blood pressure must stay high for a more extended day. We relate high blood pressure to heart issues, like heart attacks and strokes. So, you will improve the health of your heart if you get 8 hours of sleep.

Help with weight loss –

Staying up late at night is linked with obesity and increased weight. Therefore, all those who want to lose weight or maintain weight should try to get some good sleep and follow the rules to a healthy lifestyle. Usually, a lack of sleep can cause an imbalance in hormones leading to weight gain. Therefore, if you want to maintain a healthy weight, don’t forget to adopt healthy sleep habits.

Reduces inflammation –

Eight hours of sleep can also reduce inflammation: another significant relation between sleep and health. Conversely, when you lack sleep, it can increase stress hormones in your body, resulting in inflammation. As a result, your body is prone to heart attacks, cancer, and diabetes. Sleep loss can also activate cell damage: getting good sleep is crucial for your health.
