If it seems to you that the lack of proper sleep affects our mood, appearance and productivity only - you strongly (very much!) Are mistaken. In fact, a systematic shortage disrupts the work of the whole organism and damages your health. It all sounds like a scarecrow from particularly sensitive doctors - but we have for you at once three incontrovertible facts that will quickly force you to review your regime.

You do not just start to think worse: research shows that the lack of sleep slows the activity of brain cells, and you, as a consequence, are simply unable to react to what is happening around properly. Hence the inhibition, zero productivity and the perfect inability to make any decisions. If you are in this state for too long, the consequences may turn out to be sad (you do not want to lose your job?).

Scientists have proved: a lack of sleep affects the hippocampus as well - it is part of the brain that participates in the formation of emotions and memory consolidation. Only some five hours of lack of sleep a week - and a good mood (and good memory) you can not even count.

And at last an unusual fact: people who do not sleep regularly are more likely to take risks and take impulsive and rash decisions.
