#70 - Sleep and Injury: Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?
Manage episode 380567265 series 3365942
One of the most common questions I am asked about sleep is, "What are the adverse health consequences of inadequate sleep?" While I am quick to answer something related to cardiovascular or cognitive health, physical injury is not one that comes to mind immediately, but new evidence suggests it should. In this episode, we will:
- Discuss sleep mechanisms that might relate to increased injury
- Investigate how inadequate sleep may influence the immune system and inflammatory processes of the body
- Focus on cognitive changes, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, that might lend to an increased risk of injury
- Touch upon concentration and focus impairments as supplemental aspects leading to increased injury risk
- Review data within athlete, adult, high school, and juvenile populations that show increased injury risk in sleep deprived individuals
- Outline steps that can be taken to address sleep and injury risk factors
