World Sleep Day 2024: How Poor Sleep Increases NCD Risk

An insufficient amount of sleep might put your health at danger in a variety of different ways. If you don't get enough sleep, you could put yourself at risk for a number of different diseases, including weight gain and impaired brain function.

On the Friday that comes before the March Equinox, the annual celebration of World Sleep Day takes place. The purpose of this international event is to bring attention to the significance of getting sufficient sleep for one's health and overall well-being.

"Sleep Equity for Global Health" is the theme that will be associated with the year 2024. An insufficient amount of sleep might put your health at danger in a variety of different ways.

If you don't get enough sleep, you could put yourself at risk for a number of different diseases, including weight gain and impaired brain function. One of the most common risk factors for a number of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is not getting enough quality sleep.

On World Sleep Day 2024, let's take a moment to discuss how not getting enough sleep can raise the risk of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs).

"Sleep health may have a connection, either directly or indirectly, to almost all noncommunicable diseases."

Improved sleep health not only helps an individual delay or avoid the start of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), but it also provides a significant amount of assistance in the treatment process for those who are already impacted by these diseases.

According to studies, the percentage of adults who suffer from insomnia is believed to range between 10 to 30 percent, with a few studies reaching as high as 50 to 60 percent in certain high-risk populations.
