Understanding how adequate, quality sleep impacts overall health and can potentially reduce the risk of developing certain cancers.
Sleep is essential in maintaining bodily processes, including the immune system's ability to combat disease. Chronic sleep deprivation can lead to a host of health concerns, including an increased risk of certain cancers. For example, studies suggest a link between lack of sleep and increased risks of breast and colon cancers. Ensuring a routine of 7-9 hours of sleep could be an effective preventative strategy.
