Lack of sleep and its effects on our body
Sleep well… What a sweet dream! Between work days, children, household chores but also the uncertainties and stress linked to the pandemic we have reason to be tired! Yet sleep is difficult to find.
According to a Health Canada study , 43% of men and 55% of women aged 18 to 64 have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. In addition, a third of Canadians between the ages of 18 and 79 sleep less than the recommended number of hours, which is between 7 and 9 hours per night.
Factors associated with sleep disorders
Several factors can be the cause of these sleep disorders in adults, in particular:
- The use of screens before bedtime which interfere with falling asleep due to their brightness (phones, tablets, computers, televisions, etc.)
- Excessive or too late consumption of caffeine or alcohol
- A stress or concern associated with the professional environment
- A frequent shift in bedtime and wakeup time
- Concerns related to private and family life
These sleep disorders can occur in different forms , of which here are the 3 main ones:
- Insomnia: numerous and more or less long nocturnal awakenings
- Nightmares : often associated with intense stress and which disrupt the quality of sleep
- Difficulty falling asleep: some adults can take hours to fall asleep
If you are regularly affected by one or more of these sleep disorders, it is necessary to take measures to remedy it and regain peaceful nights. Indeed, according to Health Canada , insufficient or poor quality sleep can lead to many consequences:
- From obesity
- Type 2 diabetes
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Frequent injuries
- Depressions
- Permanent irritability
- A general decrease in well-being
