SleepWhat Is Sleep Debt?
One third of Australians and most likely the western world are dangerously sleep deprived.This makes them vulnerable to illnesses ranging from digestive problems, depression, premature aging, low sex drive , through to potentially fatal diseases caused by compromised immune function.
Few realize every hour of lost sleep goes on their body's tab as if they were using a life-long credit card. Sleep debt builds over years, months, or days, gradually robbing people of their health. After oxygen and water, sleep is your most vital need, even more important than food.
Every minute of lost sleep goes to body's tab similar to an overdraft. The lost sleep is termed Sleep Debt. It is the compounded sleep debt that is proving to be major contributing factors in poor health. Sleep Debt can caused be snoring, sleep apnea, insomnia, restless leg syndrome, poor metabolism and rotating shift work. Day time sleepiness is a clear indication of sleep debt.
