In this busy life, everyone is seen just running around. Nowadays, work pressure has increased so much that people do not even get time for themselves. Not only this, due to rapidly changing lifestyle, people's eating habits and sleep cycle have also changed a lot. For a healthy life, not only good diet but also good sleep is very important. However, due to work commitments, people often do not get enough sleep at night and then compensate for it during the day (Photo credit: pexels)
Many people like to sleep during the day. Not only this, taking a nap during the day is a part of the daily routine of many people. But this habit of yours can be harmful for you, because sleeping during the day increases the risk of dementia. This information has been given by the health expert himself. So let's know about it in detail (Photo credit: pexels)

Daytime sleep is out of sync with the body clock and increases the risk of other mental disorders, including dementia. Daytime sleep is light because it does not align with the circadian clock and therefore fails to fulfill the homeostatic function of sleep. (Photo Credit: Pexels)
Failure of the glymphatic system leads to abnormal protein accumulation in various parts of the brain, leading to several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). In addition to poor sleep quality, factors such as age, sedentary lifestyle, heart disease, obesity, sleep apnea, circadian misalignment, drug addiction, and depression also contribute to glymphatic system dysfunction. “People who sleep well live longer, weigh less, and have less risk of mental disorders,” says the neurologist.
Habitually getting a good night's sleep can improve cognitive function and reduce the risk of dementia and mental disorders. Overall, it can be said that napping during the day can disrupt the body's natural sleep cycle. (Photo Credit: Pexels)
This can lead to a build-up of harmful proteins in the brain, a known risk factor for dementia. Additionally, sleeping during the day can lead to a sedentary lifestyle, which is another risk factor for dementia (Photo credit: pexels)
