I had normal sleep and nutrition, and so did most people I know who burned out. However, insomnia can be a symptom of burnout (I had severe insomnia, but it a symptom rather than a cause).
I do know of one person for whom sleep deprivation seemed to be a contributing factor, along with other stresses associated with military service.
In general burnout seems to be caused by chronic physical/mental stress.
