Certain cytokines need to increase when you have an infection or inflammation, or when you're under stress.Sleep deprivation may decrease production of these protective cytokines.ong-term lack of sleep also increases your risk of obesity, diabetes, and heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease. How much sleep do you need to bolster your immune system? The optimal amount of sleep for most adults is seven to eight hours of good sleep each night. Teenagers need nine to 10 hours of sleep.
