Ohlmann KK et al. – Quality sleep is as important as nutrition or exercise in maintaining overall health. A nutritious diet provides vitamins and minerals to maintain body functions and generate adequate energy to perform daily tasks. Regular exercise keeps muscles toned, improves cardiovascular activity, and reduces stress. However, neither diet nor exercise replaces the need for sleep. With prolonged inadequate sleep, humans do not function well. They become accident prone, are less productive, and experience increased fatigue and health problems. This article discusses the importance of sleep, sleep events, health risks associated with inadequate sleep, and health care professionals’ role in protecting employees and companies.
