Lack of Sleep is Stressing Us Out, New Study Says

Stress in our life is not only caused by what we do and our busy schedules — stress is also caused by what we don’t do. New research shows that a severe lack of sleep creates a response in the immune system that is similar to the body’s immediate response when it experiences a stressful situation.

Did you know? Lack of sleep is linked to weight gain.

According to a new study from the Mayo Clinic, Leptin, the hormone that regulates hunger and the metabolism is reduced in the sleep deprived. Leptin tells the brain that you've had enough to eat and feel full. On the other hand, Ghrelin, the hormone that causes you to feel hungry and eat more, is raised when you're sleep deprived.
