Harvard-run Nurses’ Health Study has linked insufficient or irregular sleep to increased risk for colon cancer, breast cancer, heart disease and diabetes.

  • High blood pressure
  • Heart attack
  • Heart failure
  • Stroke
  • Obesity
  • Psychiatric problems, including depression and other mood disorders
  • Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)
  • Mental impairment
