2. The body becomes thin
Well, do not be surprised if staying up late doesn't just make the body fat, but it can also make it thin. When staying up late, most people do it while snacking, but there are also people who are lazy to snack when they stay up late. The body ends up lacking nutrition as well, making it feel weak. Meanwhile, the human body needs adequate rest and nutrients.
3. Lack of concentration
This one is indeed very clear. Many people who stay up late become less focused on many things because they are no longer able to process problems due to constant fatigue and sleepiness. So they just want to keep sleeping. Logic and memory are also reduced, causing everything being worked on to become a mess. The body becomes unsteady, and blood level decreases. The skin becomes pale. Lacking water, looking exhausted. So the skin looks very unhealthy.
4. Lazy to do anything at all

6. Forgetting school assignments
This is just like forgetting office work. If you forget like this, as a result, you will not get grades. Even if it is done at school in a rush, the results will be questionable.

7. Becoming a lazy person
Such habits will turn a person lazy. Not to mention always procrastinating on work later on. So it is very disadvantageous. Becoming a lazy person brings no benefit at all; you will not succeed. Those who are just less persistent in doing something sometimes feel disappointed, let alone those who do nothing at all.
8. Overweight
This is the opposite of the body becoming thin. Yes, if staying up late is done while the work desk or study desk is filled with light snacks, the result will be getting fat.

In every device, there is definitely an eye protection feature.
12. Eyes becoming minus (Nearsighted)
Eyes becoming minus will also disrupt health. There are some people who do not like wearing glasses because they worry about being bullied as nerdy and uncool, even though that is not the case.

14. Vitamin D deficiency
If you lack sunbathing, of course, the body will lack vitamin D, and the body also cannot process vitamin K. Based on doctors' advice, sunbathing for 15 to 20 minutes between 07:00-09:00 AM is enough. Some also say sunbathing up to 10:00 AM is good, but perhaps the sunlight starts to get hot.
