Cancer Surgeon With 22 Years of Experience Shares the ‘One Common Habit’ That May Be Affecting Your Immune System
Cancer Surgeon Explains the Sleep Habit That May Affect Your Immune System
Scrolling on your phone late into the night or binge-watching shows until 2 AM may feel harmless, but one cancer specialist says this pattern can quietly impact your body’s natural defence system.
Dr. Tarang Krishna — a cancer surgeon with over 22 years of clinical experience and MD at Cancer Healer Centre — recently shared in a December 2 Instagram post why quality sleep plays a key role in supporting the immune system.
His message highlights a familiar modern habit: staying awake because of screens, late-night entertainment or irregular routines, and how these can influence overall well-being.
⭐ Why Sleep Matters for Immunity
In his post, Dr Krishna says:
“The key to your immune system is sleep. Poor sleep weakens your immunity.”
According to him, lack of proper rest may leave people feeling more fatigued and stressed, making it harder for the body to function at its best. He notes that regular, restful sleep supports the body’s natural ability to maintain balance.
He adds that people often stay awake due to smartphones and digital distractions, which may disrupt the body’s natural rhythm and resting processes.
⭐ How Sleep Supports the Body
Dr Krishna also mentions the role of melatonin — the hormone associated with the sleep-wake cycle — saying that screens and late-night wakefulness can interfere with its natural functioning.
His key point:
Allowing the body enough uninterrupted rest gives it time to recharge and maintain internal balance.
He advises that consistent sleep habits can help support overall well-being.
⭐ Practical Reminders for Better Rest
While his post does not offer medical instructions, the general guidance shared includes:
- Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule
- Reducing late-night screen time
- Creating a calm bedtime routine
- Allowing the body time to rest and reset
These are general wellness suggestions that many health professionals emphasise for supporting daily energy and mental clarity.
