To finish off this little advocacy series we'll take a look at the CDC recommendations for sleep. 7 hours of sleep is the minimum for adults, though kids will need more. Getting a proper sleep schedule will help reduce drowsiness. Lastly, find a temperature that works for you.

Did you know sleep can help with weight loss? A study from the Department of Health & Human Services says that lack of sleep can decrease weight loss by 55%! Losing weight is hard enough, don't make it worse by skipping out on some much-needed rest!

Adequate sleep plays a role in preventing all sorts of disease, including 5 of the top-10 causes of death (shown below). It also works to prevent depression and drowsiness, which can lead to two more top-10 causes of death in suicide and accidental injuries.

According to the CDC, memory and attention impairment from lack of sleep increases mistakes at work as well as car crashes on the way to work. This leads to preventable injuries, lack of productivity, and lost money.
