Getting Enough Sleep to Prevent Osteoporosis: The Impact on Mental Health

Chronic lack of sleep can have detrimental effects on various aspects of life, including mental health. A recent study conducted by the University of Birmingham found that children who consistently lack sleep from infancy to early childhood may have a higher risk of developing psychotic disorders in early adulthood. The research also explored the connection between sleep deprivation, immune system health, and the onset of psychosis. The findings suggest that chronic sleep loss can significantly impact brain development and emotional regulation, leading to long-term consequences for mental health.
