Watch Out for Your Health on Sleepless Nights
We are all familiar of the fact that the best way to stay away from illnesses and sickness is to make sure we do not abuse our body. This means we have to follow the usual sleeping hours of 6 to 8 hours a day so that our immune system does not give in.
However, there are people who just put in mind that they can more than make up for lost sleep by sleeping on the dead hours where they are idle. Indeed this may sound like a good recourse, but remember that you are now entering another problem and that could fall in the category of Insomnia or Narcolepsy. It only gets worse if you want to live a complicated life so make it simple by sleeping. Besides its free so do not negotiate and tell yourself when to sleep and keep yourself from harm’s way.
“The study of sleep disorders is an emerging science,” said Dr. Omar Hasan, who is board certified in internal medicine, psychiatry and sleep medicine. “We’re learning more all the time, and there is increasing evidence that poor quality sleep is a health concern that needs to be evaluated by a health care professional.”
Among the most common disorders, sleep apnea occurs when something interrupts normal breathing patterns. The patient literally stops breathing several times during the night. It could be as few as 30 times or as many as 180 times or more.
“It’s usually the bed partner who can give us a better idea of what’s going on,” Hasan said. “They hear their partner gasping for breath, snoring or waking up during the night.”
