The #1 Thing Killing Your Sleep

By rjoachim | May 3, 2024
Lack of sleep itself: While not directly killing you, chronic sleep deprivation – regularly getting much less sleep than you need – can have serious health consequences.
Medical conditions or external factors: Certain underlying medical issues or environmental factors can disrupt sleep and even be life-threatening in some cases.

Here are some examples:
Chronic sleep deprivation: This can lead to impaired cognitive function, mood swings, and a weakened immune system https://www.healthline.com/health/video/sleep-deprivation-effects-body.
Sudden cardiac arrest: This can occur during sleep, and sometimes with no prior warning signs https://listverse.com/2017/04/17/top-10-fascinating-things-that-happen-to-you-when-you-sleep/.
Carbon monoxide poisoning: A colorless, odorless gas that can be lethal if inhaled in high quantities https://listverse.com/page/377/?page=2.

If you’re having trouble sleeping, it’s important to talk to your doctor to identify the cause and find solutions.
