Why We Need Sleep

We don't fully understand the importance of sleep and why we need it. Sleep is the time when our body does most of its repair work. Muscle tissue is rebuilt and restored. Also sleep is very important for our growth. While we sleep our growth hormone is secreated which enables our bodys tissue to grow and become strong. Our body is like a car. Every once in a while a car needs a tune up or check up. Not getting its oil changed may cause ur car to not run as smoothly as it did before. By not getting our sleep enables our mind to not clearly think as well as before. Sleep has big affects on our personalities and our sense of humor. We may become irritable and less tolerant. Sometimes you will notice that not having enough sleep makes you ornary to small things compared to the way you may act with enough sleep.
