Lack of sleep affects the body and health: it can affect memory, lethargy, lack of concentration... A day lasts 24 hours: 8 hours to work, 8 hours to sleep, 8 hours to do something else. A healthy amount of sleep for adults is 7 to 8 hours. There are several sleep cycles: half-asleep, deep sleep and full sleep, which can include dreams that you remember when you wake up.

Epistaxis is the medical term used to describe nosebleeds. The nose bleeds easily because of its location on the face and the proximity of blood vessels in the wall of the nose. There are two types of epistaxis: anterior epistaxis and posterior epistaxis, behind the nose. Children aged between 5 and 10 generally have nosebleeds, but adults do too. Epistaxis can be caused by shock or other illnesses. Health and hygiene" programme with Radio Don Bosco.

Vertigo is not an illness, but a symptom, a sign that something is wrong with your health. A person who experiences dizziness is conscious; it may be temporary, it may be permanent, it may be repeated. Dizziness is accompanied by other symptoms such as ringing in the ears, headaches, anxiety, nausea, vomiting and sweating. The ‘vestibular system’ inside the ear regulates our balance, and if something goes wrong, that's what causes vertigo. Hygiene and health’ programme produced by Radio Don Bosco.
