People are extremely unhealthy and plagued with all manner of needless diseases because of the bad diet that is typically eaten, but sleep deprivation is also a major factor undermining the health of millions. We need to pay close attention to sleep also.

Some people tend to go to bed a little later and get up a little later, but all humans are naturally predisposed to sleep at night and be active in the daytime. This is our natural circadian rhythm, and it’s best that we sleep in harmony with this rhythm.

It’s true that diet, exercise, and sleep are the three main pillars upon which our health rests, but sleep may very well turn out to be the most important of the three. A 24-hour sleep deprivation is much more harmful than 24 hours of no food or exercise.

In the spring, when we lose an hour of sleep due to daylight savings time, heart attacks on the following day substantially increase. In the fall, when we gain an hour of sleep, heart attacks fall. This is just one example of how sleep affects our health.

Early school start times is one good example of how children’s health is harmed in our society. Other examples of harm to the health of children are rampant ADHD and psychiatric drugging, transsexual brainwashing, and excessive out-of-control vaccination.
