Sleeping is a natural process. Generally, everyone sleeps at night, while some people also sleep in the afternoon. Experts always advise getting about 7 to 8 hours of sleep. But now the time has come that health experts have also started giving advice on sleeping because people's lifestyle has changed a lot, which has affected sleep. Let's say the sleep time has reduced. Staying awake for a long time has become a daily routine for most people.

People who are in college or who have to work for a long time live their lives with half the sleep. Seeing this deteriorating sleep cycle, experts always tell people the importance of sleep, but still people ignore it.

Many studies have told about the side effects of poor sleep quality and the benefits of adequate sleep. Recently, an American doctor has given information in his social media post about the effects of staying up until midnight on our brain. Let's find out.

Indian-American doctor Saurabh Sethi has posted a video on social media, in which he said that if you always stay up until midnight, you may have to face physical and mental health problems.

Side effects of staying up late

  1. Weight gain: According to doctors, if you stay up late every night, you are more likely to gain weight because staying up late increases your appetite. Along with this, hormones also become unbalanced, due to which you gain more weight.
  2. Impact on mood: If you stay up for a long time and do not get 7 to 8 hours of sleep every day, it also affects your mood. Your irritability increases, and this also affects your work.
