Staying up late is a behavior that is very harmful to the body. If you stay up late often, your body's metabolic function is likely to be disrupted, and your overall complexion will look very bad.

How to recover from staying up late?

1. Get some sleep beforehand

If you are planning to stay up late at night, it is best to make up for the sleep during the day. If you can make up for 1 to 2 hours of sleep during the day, your sleep needs at night will be less, which can alleviate the pain of staying up late.

If you don't make up for the sleep during the day, and wait until late at night when you are extremely tired to drink coffee, it may not really refresh you. If you feel very tired halfway through working late at night, don't force yourself to keep going. A 10 to 30 minute nap will be very helpful. This is because staying up late will stimulate the autonomic nervous system and increase the heart rate and blood pressure. If you can rest for 30 minutes in the middle, it can reduce the increase in heart rate and blood pressure, your mood will be more stable, and it will also help you concentrate.

2. Midnight snack portion

The amount of midnight snack should be between 30% and 60% full, because eating too much will increase the burden on your stomach and make you more sleepy.

Starch can improve your nerves and mood, and help improve work efficiency. However, if the amount of starch in the midnight snack is too much, it will make people drowsy. You can pair it with some protein, such as half a bowl of noodles and a few thin slices of meat. Instant noodles are almost entirely starch and are not suitable for midnight snacks.

3. Make up for the sleep every other day

It takes seven days to make up for one day of staying up late. The day after staying up late should be used to make up for the sleep and adjust the day and night cycle. For example, it is best to take a nap at noon and avoid overdrawing your physical strength.

After returning home, you can take a hot bath to speed up blood circulation and eliminate fatigue quickly. Modern people generally lead a sedentary life and lack exercise.
