6 Diseases Caused by Sleep Deprivation
1. #Diabetes
If you do not sleep well and become sleep-deprived, your risk of developing diabetes increases by 3 to 4 times compared to someone who sleeps well. This leads to a decrease in insulin and leptin secretion, which triggers diabetes.
2. #HeartDisease
If you do not get an average of at least 6 hours of restful sleep per day, the likelihood of developing heart disease increases by 40-50%. Especially if you have symptoms of sleep apnea, the risk becomes even higher. It puts stress on the heart and can lead to illnesses such as heart disease and cerebrovascular diseases.
3. #Stroke
When sleep becomes insufficient and you are unable to sleep well, stress hormones such as cortisol are released. This increases the risk of stroke and raises blood pressure. However, sleeping too much can also lead to stroke. The appropriate amount of sleep is said to be between 6 to 8 hours.
4. #Dementia
When you can't sleep, your memory deteriorates. Melatonin helps prevent the death of brain cells. As sleep deprivation reduces melatonin levels, it can lead to dementia.
5. #Osteoporosis
Sleep also affects osteoporosis. It lowers bone density and weakens bone function, making fractures more likely.
6. #Cancer Incidence
Our body has the autonomic nerves, including the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. Health can be maintained when these work in harmony. When sleep is insufficient, the sympathetic nervous system becomes more developed, which can lead to autonomic nervous system imbalance, thereby increasing the risk of cancer and accelerating aging.

Lately, maybe because of spring, I find myself unable to sleep until late at night. There are various stresses piling up, but perhaps I also think a lot. As I experience physical ailments, I feel inexplicably anxious and overwhelmed with complicated thoughts, making it hard to fall asleep.
So, I often feel a bit tired during the day, but I heard that there are other diseases that can develop from lack of sleep, such as dementia and osteoporosis. Since these areas also weaken, strength is important. As I looked into it, I wanted to share in case there might be a connection.
