Why your skin needs 8 hours of beauty sleep too

Updated: Oct 17, 2020


1) IMPROVED SKIN AND HEALTH


-Think of sleep as a period of rejuvenation. Rest is the time that your body takes to recover from physical and emotional stress.


2) EMOTIONAL REGENERATION


-A lack of regular sleep may impact our interactions with others. Researchers show that sleep quality may directly impact empathy for others. Meaning, if you don’t get enough sleep, you may find it more challenging to understand and sympathize with others.


3) REDUCED RISK OF STROKE AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE


-Regular and balanced sleep (an average of 7-8 hours per day) can also improve cardiovascular health.


4) IMPROVED IMMUNE SYSTEM


-When we sleep, our bodies regulate cytokines. These are tiny cell proteins that support your immune system and help it work effectively. As you can imagine, if your immune system weakens, then you become more susceptible to illness.


5) HORMONAL BALANCE


-A lack of sleep also impacts your hormonal balance. Cross-sectional Results from studies have also suggested that a lack of sleep also may trigger different eating habits. Research suggests lower quality sleep may reduce glucose levels and metabolic rate. Essentially, this means that the less sleep you get, the more your body will crave unhealthy food choices, and the higher your risk of obesity will be.
