Today’s people’s lifestyles are becoming increasingly unhealthy, especially for young people. The "China Sleep Health Survey White Paper 2022" states that three-quarters of people have sleep disorders, the average sleep duration is only about 7 hours, and only nearly 8% of people have 8 hours. Chinese Academy of Social Sciences stated that the sleep time of Chinese people is still shortening. In 2018, it was 7.61h, and in 2021 it was shortened to 7.06h.
Why are more and more people suffering from sleep disorders in China? The reason cannot be ignored!
There is now a popular word among Chinese people, called " rolled into ". This is a state of competition. People will make more progress because of this and complete their goals as quickly as possible. It is also good to roll one volume. Involution consumes a lot of energy. If it is not rolled correctly, the body will be hollowed out. For example, due to the involution of work and study, there is no time for physical rest, and it is common to stay up late. This slowly leads to disorder of work and rest, and sleep disorders. Especially students and office workers who are in a critical period of academic improvement and career advancement.
However, some students or office workers are not very stressed in their daily life with studies and work. Their staying up late is completely voluntary, after all, they are accompanied by their mobile phones . Weibo, short videos, chatting, and watching TV dramas have become the triggers of nervous excitement before going to bed.
plus The blue light emitted by mobile phones will inhibit the body's secretion of melatonin , and melatonin is one of the important substances that affects sleep. Simply put, mobile phones are also one of the main factors leading to sleep disorders, but this is also It depends on a person's own self-control. The country's implementation of " double minus " is not only to reduce the academic burden of primary school students, but also to give them more time to sleep and help them thrive. How strong are their self-control over television, mobile phones, and tablets?
According to the survey, it was found that their sleep duration remained unchanged after the double reduction. Among children and teenagers aged 6 to 18, nearly 33% sleep for 8 hours, while only 27% of children who go to bed late spend time studying. Even if there is no pressure to study, electronic products It cannot be avoided.
In addition, emotional problems, diet (cigarettes, alcohol, coffee, strong tea) and other factors are also one of the "reasons" for young people to stay up late. After all, young people's lives are indeed rich.
It can be seen from the above that young people and teenagers are the main force who stay up late, accounting for more than half, and the rest are middle-aged and elderly people. As we age, our physical fitness declines and we suffer from various diseases. Some diseases can affect sleep, such as kidney disease, which can lead to increased nocturia. Most of the elderly people's "staying up late" is passive. "Lingshu·Ying Health Conference" indicates that as the elderly get older, their body's Qi and blood will be insufficient, and their organs will age without the support of Qi and blood, leading to insomnia. It is not just physical condition, but also related to life, economic, psychological and other factors .
No matter how long a person lives, one-third of his time is spent sleeping. Sleeping is an important process for the human body to repair itself and can relieve physical fatigue. The dangers caused by lack of sleep are not numerous. Stanford University in the United States stated in "JAMA Neurology" that insufficient sleep will lead to an increased risk of death. "Sleep Health" magazine said that if women don't get enough sleep, their bodies will age faster. It also increases the chance of suffering from cardiovascular disease, digestive system disease, cancer . Therefore, staying up late is absolutely not allowed.
Even if you go to bed at that time, you will stay up late - there is no fixed time, it is best before 11 o'clock
In fact, there are two situations to consider. It is not simply a fixed time. If a person's sleep cycle is stable, for example His sleep time is at 11:30, and then starts counting from 11:30. The sleep time is sufficient , which means that this is not staying up late, it can only be said to be a delay in sleep time. Some people have special work characteristics, and they sleep that night. Unavoidable.
But it should be noted that this is a long-term situation. If you use this as an excuse to stay up late and feel at ease, there is no need to do so, because this is a long-term situation. For people who work at 8 a.m., going to bed late once, even if they can sleep for 8 hours on holiday the next day, is considered staying up late. Even if people who delay sleeping time do not stay up late, their body will detoxify at 11 o'clock when the body is asleep. Going to bed late will also affect your health, so it is better to avoid going to bed late.
At the same time, ensure 8 hours of adequate sleep. Insufficient sleep at night is not conducive to the brain's self-cleaning work. It will also make people slow to react and lose concentration. It will also be detrimental to the health of brain cells over time. .
If you want to reduce the harm to your body caused by staying up late, it is actually necessary to "catch up on sleep". How should you make up for it?
If you stay up all night, it is not as simple as taking a long nap to make up for the time. It will take several days. Only time will restore the damage done to ’s body due to staying up late.
Avoid eating greasy and spicy food when staying up late, drink more warm water to help the body detoxify. Napping is an opportunity to catch up on sleep. You can sleep appropriately for about 30 minutes at noon. The time should not be too long to avoid dizziness. If the time is too long, it will also affect sleep at night, causing sleep disorders to enter an endless loop , gradually and slowly recovering.
However, no matter how you supplement, sleeping late will affect the work of the liver, damage liver cells and cause liver disease . The liver is an important detoxification organ in the body. A bad liver will have a considerable impact on other organs throughout the body.
In summary, staying up late, no matter how you supplement, will cause damage to the body. For the sake of good health, stay up late less often.
