Abstract: Sleep has a complex structure and consists of four stages that repeat in cycles during the night. During certain phases and periods of the sleep cycle, a whole series of hormones and other substances are secreted that help regulate metabolism and other factors that affect health. Altered sleep patterns can lead to feelings of fatigue and sleepiness, and even increase the risk of a whole host of serious medical conditions. Differentiate between sleep problems, primary sleep disorders, and sleep disorders caused by a medical condition. Sleep problems are often caused by poor sleep hygiene or bad habits. It is about habits and environmental factors that can be influenced and controlled. These include smoking, drinking alcohol or caffeine, exercising intensely, or eating large meals before sleeping. There is also fatigue caused by changing time zones when traveling and psychological stresses that lead to difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, such as deadlines at work, exams, marital conflicts or business crises.
