*West Virginians Don’t Get Enough Sleep

A new study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention led a study to find out the amount of sleep people reported getting state by state.  West Virginia ranked at the top of sleep-deprived states with a number that was double the national rate.  That suggests that 1 in 5 West Virginians do not get adequate sleep.  They also found that women get less sleep than men. 

Why is sleep important?  Lack of sleep affects a lot of things from mood to weight.  Links have been found to poor blood sugar control, increased risk of diabetes, increased risk for cardiovascular disease, obesity, and depression.

Make a point to get 7-8 hours of shut-eye.  It is some of the best “health insurance” you can have.
