You don’t get enough sleep

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in three Americans admit that they don’t get enough sleep, and unfortunately, this could be one of the reasons why you feel tired throughout the day.

You won’t feel better if you sleep normally for a few days and then alternate with a few other days when you do not sleep at all.
