All eyes are on COVID-19 (perhaps better known as the coronavirus) and mitigating the spread of the infectious disease. As schools and businesses close and people are encouraged to remain home and practice social distancing, it’s important to take the necessary to reduce the chances of becoming infected with the virus. Besides frequent, thorough hand washing and not touching your face, it’s important to keep the immune system in good shape.

One way to keep the immune system running smoothly is to ensure that you’re getting plenty of uninterrupted sleep each night, at least seven to eight hours. Sleep deprivation or sleep disorders like insomniacan quickly take their toll on the body, weakening defenses and making it more susceptible to diseases beyond coronavirus. While coronavirus may only cause mild symptoms in healthy individuals or those below the age of sixty, the symptoms of the disease may worsen if the immune system is already in a weakened state.
