If You Don’t Snooze, You Lose
27 Sep 2021
The average human spends a third of life sleeping. Quite obviously then, maintaining healthy habits are just as important during slumber as they are in waking hours. We need sleep to remove toxins and metabolic trash from the brain. Additionally, lack of sleep has associations with obesity, hypertension, diabetes, depression and cardiovascular disease. Make your bedroom a sleep-friendly space. Keep the room cool, dark, and free of the bright displays of clocks or electronic devices. Eat light in the evenings and avoid excess liquid consumption, especially caffeine or alcohol, directly before bed.
