Six Reasons to Get Enough Sleep
1. Learning and memory
sleep helps the brain give new information to memory.

2. Metabolism and weight
constant lack of sleep may cause weight gain. It can impact how our body deals with and stores carbohydrates. It can also change the hormone levels that impact appetite.

3. Safety
lack of sleep at night can lead to falling asleep during the daytime.

4. Mood
sleep loss can result in anger, edgines, and failure to concentrate.

5. Cardiovascular disease
serious sleep disorders have been linked to high blood pressure, an increase in stress level hormones, and irregular heartbeat.

6. Disease
lack of sleep weakens your immune system. Getting enough sleep may also help fight cancer.
