Sleeping after 2 AM can have major negative effects on the health of Gen Z, especially due to disruptions in their natural sleep cycle. A human's body follows a circadian rhythm, which is essentially an internal clock that regulates sleep-wake cycles. When people stay up late, specifically beyond 2 AM, they may disrupt this rhythm, leading to sleep deprivation and poor-quality rest.

For Gen Z, who are often engaged in social media, gaming, or academic pressure, staying awake past 2 AM can result in very little sleep. This can contribute to cognitive problems like memory issues, slow concentration, and decreased reaction times. Over the time, chronic sleep deprivation can further lead to more severe health problems, including weakened immune function, higher stress levels, & an increased risk of mental health issues like anxiety & depression.

Moreover, late sleep can affect physical health. It has been linked to weight gain due to the weird metabolic processes, and a lack of sleep can increase the likelihood of developing cardiovascular diseases. Sleeping after 2 AM also reduces the time spent in deep, restorative sleep phases, which are crucial for physical recovery & mental rejuvenation.
