Furthermore it may lead to health ailments such as sleep-cooking, memory loss, making oneself busy on phone during night hours and night time snacking, increase in depression, dizziness, drowsiness, dyspepsia, back pain, and lethargy.

It acts as a generic CNS depressant and helps in regulating the sleep cycle of the body. It is does not lead to addiction to the body and zero down the physical dependency over the patient.

The only drawback of this sleep drug is it is a short term medicine for sleeping aid. It is not as an effective sedative for triggering sleep in insomnia patients. It may lead bizarre behavior in the patient and may also trigger the fertility problem and somnolence in the patient.

Trazodone sleeping pill also known as Desyrel is considered to be the most widely used sleeping drug among the Americans.

It has mild side effects on the patient’s body such as blurred vision, vomiting, nausea, constipation, headache and no sleep.

The study was carried on a sample of 600 people. Out of them, 40 had high diabetes and 560 were without any high sugar level. A close monitoring was done on the quality of sleep and blood sugar level and various other methods of control of the diabetes disease. While observing the various measurements, scientists concluded that there is a close link between glucose measures and the poor quality of sleep or no sleep at all. Persons who do not have any control on their diabetes, are generally found to sleep poorly.

The experiment continued for six nights and during the course of the experiment, every person was given a wrist band with a monitor control attached with it. The logic is that every time a person gets disturbed in his sleep, his wrist will move. Next morning, from the counter in the wrist band, it can be estimated that how many times the person got awakened during the whole night. The result will give a clear indication about the poor sleep or no sleep of the person during the night.

During the course of the experiment, it was observed that people with type 2 diabetes tend to be overweight and that may also hamper their sleep quality to a great extent. There is a direct link between obesity and sleep apnea. It is a disease where the patient stops breathing at night and then gets awakened. This process disturbs his sleep to a great extent.

A diabetic patient can sleep well if he can reduce his stress to a great extent. So, if you are suffering from diabetes, you must take your sleep seriously and also see that you never get stressed under any circumstances at any point of the day. A less stress can not only help you to sleep well, but can also help in controlling your diabetes to a great extent.

People having a greater level of blood glucose generally develop many complications in their health. Poor sleep adds to greater complications and other risk factors and their quality of life get reduced to a great extent. The most dangerous factor is that their life expectancy also can get reduced because of these reasons.

It was also observed in the experiment that among the diabetic patients, higher blood glucose level is observed among the 23 per cent of the poor sleepers in the morning and 48 per cent of them have higher blood insulin levels. Using these statistical figures, researchers came to the conclusion that if a diabetic patient has got poor sleeping habits, then he will have 82 per cent higher chance of insulin resistance than any normal person with diabetes who sleeps well.

So, if a person is suffering from diabetes and is getting little or no sleep during the night, then he or she must consult a doctor for guidance. While curing the disease of diabetes, if he can sleep well, then he will be able to keep a control on his diabetic level and that will give him relief from other medical complications.

It has also been found that lack of proper sleep may increase diabetes in those persons who are suffering from type 2 diabetes. After three nights of poor sleep, they become very much less sensitive to insulin. As a result, they need more insulin to dissolve more glucose and if that insulin is not available, risk of type 2 diabetes increases to a great extent. Hence it can be said that if there is a decrease in sleep, it has got significantly bad effect on insulin sensitivity and tolerance of glucose level.

It is considered both a disorder and a symptom, for while it can be a malady on its own, most often it is a manifestation of stress, worry or psychiatric disorders. The former is classified as primary insomnia, not attributable to medical, environmental or psychiatric causes. The latter is secondary, or comorbid insomnia. Insomnia that lasts for less than a week is transient, if it lasts for less than a month it is acute, and if it continues for more than a month, it is chronic. While transient and acute insomnia can be caused by environmental changes, severe depression or stress, chronic insomnia is often primary in nature. It causes muscle fatigue, no sleep, hallucinations and double vision. Inability to fall asleep initially is called sleep-onset insomnia, and can be caused by anxiety or changed sleep patterns. Middle-of-the-night insomnia or terminal insomnia, on the other hand, refer to a difficulty in falling asleep after waking up in the middle of the night, or at dawn, respectively. The former is a manifestation of pain or illness; the latter of depression.

Doctors say insomnia is more prevalent among the older age group and women; in the latter case it can be associated with menstruation, pregnancy and menopause. Use of Psychoactive drugs, including medication for cold, high blood-pressure, asthma, thyroid diseases can be a cause; while sleep disorders like Restless Limbs Syndrome (RLS) and sleep apnea can also lead to insomnia. It is also caused by some neurological disorders, brain lesions and traumatic brain injuries.

There is a wealth of research data available on the various causes and symptoms of insomnia, as well as on its treatment. If the insomnia is stress induced, it is most likely to resolve itself once the underlying event is resolved. Similarly, changes in sleep pattern or environment, if resolved, lead to a resolution most of the time. But in case of acute or chronic insomnia, your doctor will start with a full medical history and thorough physical examination. He will also recommend behavior therapy, since insomnia is most often a manifestation of a behavioral disorder. Behavioral therapy can be of different types, such as stimulus control, cognitive behavior, sleep restrictions such as no sleep at all. A variety of relaxation techniques, such as hypnosis, yoga, meditation and guided imagery are also tried out as non-pharmacological treatment regimes.

As for medication, research shows that 95% of insomnia patients who get no sleep at night depend on some form of medicine. Research has shown that most of the Americans complain of this disease named insomnia. To some patients, it continues for many nights and to many, it even last for several months or even years. Half of these patients have complained that they are suffering from this disease because of worries and tension. Others say that they have developed the diseases from digestive disorder and other pain which remains in the body.

Insomnia is also found to be more in elderly men and women. In case of women, the disease may occur due to pregnancy, menopause and menstruation. With increase of age, the chance of occurrence of the disease increases to a great extent.

However, sedatives such as benzodiazepines and newer nonbenzodiazepine drugs can cause a host of side effects such as addiction, fatigue, motor neuron disorders, little to no sleep and cognitive impairments. You can try out natural remedies – herbs such as valerian or lavender; or a change in your diet patterns.

A 24-hour-a-day and seven-day-a-week working profile is completely taking away the resting hours of humans and making them to work like a machine, in order to have the loads of material wealth into their pockets. The latest technology such as internet, online chatting, e- mails, late night duties have taken away the peace and rest of mind of people causing little to no sleep. Instead of this, they are increasingly blessed with innumerable health problems like heart disease, hypertension, Depression, diabetes, obesity, cancer, etc.

It has been clearly depicted in the reports of the Harvard-run Nurses’ Health Study that out of the sample taken of 11000 adults, aged between 32 to 49 years most of them are found to suffering from one or the other chronic ailment related to obesity, diabetes or hypertension due to deprived or no sleep, some also claim seeing the symptoms after wisdomteeth-removal. The major cause of this ailment is the disruptions of hormonal balance in the body causing, fatigue, weakness and undue health problems. Another important factor leading to the emergence of these chronic diseases is the high level of protein in the body due to improper eating habits.

The improper sleep or no sleep has an adverse affect on the performance, health and safety of human being by simply increasing the mental stress or depression of the daily life. The stress could be of anything it could be of personal, financial, social or family one, which may keep on intruding one’ s mind, body and nervous system all the daylong and leading him to get close to unwanted chronic health ailments.

Emmanuel Mignot, renowned professor of Stanford University, USA, revealed in his new journal based on Obesity and Sleep that, “people have started believing that there is an inverse relationship between the inadequate sleep and health ailments”.

However, to counterfeit the Emmanuel Mignot statement, Daniel F. Kripke, Professor of the University of California, San Diego commented that, “less of hours of sleep is increasing the life expectancy of people and making them healthier than generations ago. The requisite hours of sleep make people habitual to one routine and this make them more disciplined and scheduled in their daily life.”

Though, most of the scientists totally disagree with the statement put forward by, Daniel F. Kripke and recommends that people should maintain an adequate balance between the sleep and work. And if they fail to do so then they are endangering their lives to several chronic health ailments, which may drastically affect their mind and bodily function. One should not let their sleeping hours go down at the cost of family, sedentary lifestyle or working hours and invite oneself to the death bed.

Any sort of sleep deprivation leads to numerous mental and bodily problems such as:

It drastically decreases the performance level and mind alertness to near about 33%.

The decreased alertness of mind may result in the cognitive and memory impairment of the brain.

Improper sleep leads to the disturbance in personal relationship with the partner.

It makes you lethargic and inactive to take enthusiastic participation in family or social functions.

Once a person is detected with sleep deprivation or insomnia should be treated clinically immediately, if fails to do so then it may lead to the emergence of several chronic diseases such as:

High blood pressure

Heart failure

Stroke

Obesity

Depression and other mood disorders

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

Mental impairment

Childhood growth retardation

So, if you really want to improve your quality of life and want to be fit and healthy all day long then never ever compromise with your sleeping hours. Take proper eight hour sleep daily and maintain balanced and healthy lifestyle, which is free from all chronic health ailments.
