How to regulate poor sleep

Good sleep is an important guarantee for good health. Studies have shown that people can repair and adjust their bodies in a timely manner during sleep. If adults sleep less than six hours a day, they will become sub-healthy. If they sleep less than four hours a day, they are very likely to develop cardiovascular diseases. But for some people, falling asleep is very difficult, so how to regulate poor sleep?

Poor sleep does not necessarily mean there is something wrong with your body. It may also be due to psychological factors or excessive mental stress. Simply taking sleeping pills is not a good way to regulate your body. How to adjust poor sleep? In addition to adjusting according to the cause of poor sleep, you should also pay attention to the following points.

1. Sleeping environment is very important

What should you do if your sleep quality is poor? First of all, you can start with the sleeping environment. An environment that helps improve sleep quality should be dark, quiet, comfortable, and refreshing. Of course, it should not be easily disturbed. Therefore, the bedroom must be quiet, dark, and the temperature should be around 18℃ to 20℃.

2. Proper diet helps sleep

If you tend to have trouble sleeping at night, you can eat more foods that can stabilize serotonin and convert 5-hydroxytryptamine (an amino acid with a calming effect), such as bananas, potatoes, whole wheat bread, oatmeal, warm milk, etc., which can also help you fall asleep and improve your sleep quality.

3. Strictly follow good habits

Many people develop good sleeping habits in their daily lives, but these habits are completely broken during weekends or holidays. This is not a good practice. You should strictly adhere to good sleeping habits, go to bed on time at night, wake up on time in the morning, and arrange a nap as appropriate.

4. Exercise more

Lack of activity during the day can lead to sleep problems at night. Doing some physical exercise regularly will help you fall asleep faster.

In addition, you should avoid drinking alcohol and quit smoking, because the nicotine in cigarettes has a refreshing effect on the human body, and a small amount of alcohol can also make it difficult to fall asleep. Tea and coffee have the same effect, so it is best not to drink beverages such as tea and coffee before going to bed at night. To adjust poor sleep, everyone needs to maintain good habits in the details of life, so that they can have better and healthier sleep.
