  2. What is sleep deprivation? • In this globalized era, extended working hours, daily travels, and a never ending exposure to screens can reduce our sleep hours. • It is medically recommended to sleep for 9 hours for any adult. • What is sleep deprivation? • We have an internal "body clock" that controls when our body is ready for sleep. Body clock typically follows a 24-hour repeating rhythm. The rhythm affects every cell, tissue, and organ in your body and how they work.  • We’re not sleeping at the time when our body is prepared and ready to sleep, or if we are not completing our sleep hours, it leads to sleep deprivation. www.add15years.comwww.add15years.in
