Why is it easy to feel sleepy in spring?

1. In spring, as the temperature gradually rises, the skin pores dilate and the blood supply increases, but the oxygen supply to the brain decreases accordingly, resulting in listlessness and drowsiness, which is a phenomenon of inhibition of the central nervous system.

2. The increase in carbon dioxide concentration in the environment can also cause brain hypoxia, which can reduce brain activity and cause drowsiness.

3. In spring, the days gradually get longer and the nights gradually get shorter. People sleep less and are more likely to feel sleepy.

Who are most likely to suffer from “spring fatigue”?

Most people experience the feeling of spring sleepiness, but those who often eat raw, cold, fatty and greasy food, or who exercise little and lack rest are more likely to suffer from insufficient yang energy in the body and invasion of moisture, making the symptoms of spring sleepiness more obvious.

In addition, people with spleen deficiency cannot transform moisture in the body well, so the symptoms of spring sleepiness will be more obvious. The elderly, children and patients with chronic diseases are also prone to spring sleepiness.
