Adequate sleep improves physical performance and endurance.

Short sleep is linked to higher risks of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.
6. Reduces Risk of Depression
Poor sleep quality strongly correlates with mental health challenges, including depression.

Sleeping fewer than 5 hours per night significantly weakens your immune function, increasing the likelihood of illness.
