If a person is constantly lacking sleep, it has a serious effect on his body and well-being. Scientists from Great Britain have warned about the most dangerous consequences of lack of sleep.

Under normal conditions, it is desirable to sleep 7-8 hours. Otherwise, attempts to get rid of excess weight will be fruitless even with a proper diet. Lack of rest forces a person to consume more calories, which only provokes gaining additional kg.

Sleep deficiency also has a negative effect on the skin, causing accelerated aging. Research shows that when a person doesn't sleep well, he may develop heart problems, which increases the risk of stroke or heart attack.

Scientific works confirm that sleep deprivation reduces libido. For men, in the long term, it threatens with erectile dysfunction, and it becomes more difficult for women to experience orgasm.

With a lack of sleep, a person feels tired and broken, problems with concentration arise. Scientists also prove that lack of sleep has a connection with hormonal disturbances.

It can lead to a decrease in glucose intolerance and insulin sensitivity, while the level of cortisol increases.
