A few reasons why you can not sleep properly





The lack of healthy sleep can adversely affect mental and physical health. The problem is that many do not even realize that prevents them from fully sleep.

Sleep starts at the cellular level. The brain keeps track of time, resulting in the so-called circadian rhythm based on the 24-hour duration of the day - that's why most people sleep at night and stay awake during the day.

Scientists suggest that circadian rhythms in cyanobacteria first appeared about three billion years ago. In humans, the formation of circadian rhythms is happening in one of the departments of the hypothalamus, which is damaged, these cycles are broken, but most sleep problems are other causes.

Physiological processes of people depend on the time of day: the night is busy cleansing our body tissues of toxins, the movement of information in the volatile memory, and sometimes even fix damaged DNA. In other words, a dream - not only recreation, but also actively work to restore the resources of the body.

Basically, the quality of sleep affects the perception of the brain dark and daylight. When the biological clock go astray, the brain ceases to signal the onset time of the day or night, so do not start the recovery process. Over time, this can lead to a deterioration of the brain and even some chronic diseases.

At risk are people who are forced to work at night, and even those who did not go out during the day on the street, because the body does not receive the signal of the occurrence of the day, which serves as the bright sunlight.

The researchers say that the most important condition for healthy sleep - not to contradict their own chronotype, so if you feel sleepy, it is better to go on the side, regardless of the time of day.

But if you still have to break the routine, there are a few tricks: If you have to work the night shift, until it got dark, we can arrange a trip to the body "decided" it was time to stay awake. If you sleep during the day, reduce the number of lights in the room to a minimum, for the brain to come "night", and with a lack of sunlight in the workplace, try at least a couple times a day to go out.
