WHY DO WE NEED SLEEP

We all know that sleep is an essential function in keeping our bodies healthy, protect us from diseases and allow our body and mind to recharge. A good quality of sleep allows us to perform at our optimum, both mentally and physically.

Sleep allows our bodies to recuperate and restore energy that we lost during activity while being awake. It helps our immune systems to fight off illness. During sleep our bodies release certain hormones and enzymes that repair muscle damage and restore muscles to the best working condition.

Sleep helps mentally as well. It plays an important role in memory retention since things we learn during the day are fixed in our memory while we sleep. Our well-being is also affected by sleep.
