I'm Nelson Dellis, five-time USA Memory Champion and memory coach.

And today, we're gonna be answering your questions on Twitter.

This is "Memory Support." @GulaabZaamun asks, "Does lack of sleep affect memory?" Yes, definitely.

If you don't get enough sleep, you're not gonna be able to pay attention or have tremendous focus the next day.

And focus is a huge cornerstone of having a good memory.

On the other side of things, sleep is super important for consolidating memories.

During certain deeper states of sleep, your hippocampus is actually transferring data from short term to the long term.

And if that process doesn't happen, you will potentially lose that information.

So it's a way to consolidate that day's information for the long term.

@joguy358 asks, "Does memory loss or weakening always mean dementia or Alzheimer's?" Definitely not.
