If you do not sleep late at night, the appetite hormone increases and the appetite suppressant hormone decreases.

3. Affects grades.

Harvard University experiments show that students who consistently sleep well earned higher scores.

This is because the brain reactivates memory and makes it stronger while sleeping.

The brain changes to make long term memory available while sleeping. At this time, this process of memory formation for long-term memory formation is made by communicating with the hippocampus and other parts of the brain.

“Every night, when the amount of sleep varies greatly, the brain does not know how to plan activities. If you slept for nine hours last night, your brain is planning to take organic chemistry courses between 7 and 9 hours. But if he sleeps for seven hours, brain will miss that time.”

“The next day, the brain plans again to finish all activities in 7 hours. But if you sleep nine hours that night, brain will not know what to do for the remaining two hours. Therefore, it is very important to constantly take a certain amount of sleep.”

– Robert Stick Gold Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard University
