If you get enough sleep, the body will be safe from infection

*8 hours sleep increases immunity
Jason Ellis, director of the Northmria Center for Sleep Research, says that sleep is most important for destroying infection in the body. During sleep, our body's immune system makes a protein called 'cytokines' and spreads in the body. A special type of white blood cell 'T-cell' is found in this protein which is important for the body's immune system. These cells attack and destroy any infected cells present in the body. That is, if you are getting at least eight hours of sleep, then cytokines and T cells will be produced in sufficient quantity and your physical capacity against infection will increase.

*Sleep deprivation invites illness
Expert Jason Ellis says that lack of sleep due to stress or fear doubles down on the immune system because then the body's ability to respond to the immune system becomes unbalanced. Due to this the tension increases and there is a fear of reaching a state of mental depression, while due to physical weakness, the risk of flu etc.

People get so upset due to lack of sleep that they exhaust themselves by working beyond their capacity. Experts believe that instead of proving effective in getting sleep, this method can increase the risk to the body. At the same time, experts believe that service workers who have to work more in emergency situations may suffer from insomnia, which is a matter of concern.
