What's the harm of insufficient sleep?
The harm of insufficient sleep:

1, emotionally unstable. People who are tired for a long time are emotionally unstable because sleep and mood are regulated by the same brain chemical.

2. Get old before you get old. Hormone changes during sleep promote skin blood flow, so sleep is good, skin is brighter and more elastic. Many studies have found that skin renewal at night is 8 times faster than during the day, which can reduce wrinkles more effectively.

3, the resistance is getting worse. People who don't get enough sleep are more likely to get sick. In a foreign study, researchers injected healthy participants with cold virus. It was found that participants who slept less than 7 hours were three times more likely to be infected with cold virus. However, people who only sleep for 4 hours for several consecutive nights have a weak immune response to influenza vaccine.

4. Slow response. Making tea will also spill tea on the new clothes you just bought. Such clumsiness may be caused by lack of sleep. Dr. Collette Kuhida, director of the Center for Human Sleep Research at Stanford University, said that there is a lot of evidence that people who lack sleep are slow-moving, inattentive, unresponsive and have worse motor skills. In addition, drowsiness can also lead to impaired sense of balance and depth perception.

Coping methods of insufficient sleep:

1. Open the curtain: The first thing is to see the sunshine. You can have a try. "Natural light will reset your biological clock and help you play better all day," Joyce said. "Even on cloudy or rainy days, dim light can wake you up more than any indoor light bulb." On a new day, the morning sunshine can help you get back to your best. So, as soon as you get up, open the curtains and cheer up quickly.

2. Walking: 65438+ 0: 00 pm to 3: 00 pm is the easiest time to feel sleepy in a day, said Dr. Michael, the author of Sleep Doctor's Diet Plan. If you find yourself sleepy and yawning in the afternoon, try going out for a walk. "Exercise raises the temperature of the trunk, stimulates the heart, brain and muscles, and prevents them from falling into a trough," Bruce said. Walking around the office helps to rejuvenate the body.

3. Create a beautiful environment: The quality of sleep environment directly affects the quality of sleep. Families living in downtown areas should try their best to create a good living environment and reduce sleep interference. Calm the uneasy psychology:

Psychological interference is the cause of most people's insomnia. Good sleep is very beneficial to maintain a peaceful mind, a tolerant way of dealing with people and a positive and optimistic life.
