What are the common causes of sleep problems?

1. Dependence on mobile phones

Insomnia may be caused by being too dependent on your phone before going to bed. Playing with your phone will make you more and more excited, delaying your sleep time, and even making it difficult to fall asleep in a short period of time after putting down your phone. Playing with your phone can also damage your skin and eyesight because you are too close to the screen, so you should reduce the time you spend playing with your phone.

2. Habitually staying up late

Habitual staying up late is one of the common causes of insomnia. Many people have to stay up late frequently due to work, life and other reasons. Once staying up late becomes a habit, it will cause insomnia. Therefore, everyone should go to bed as soon as possible after staying up late to replenish the body's consumption and restore the body's physical strength and energy.

3. Eating and drinking too much before going to bed

Many people may have such habits due to busy work: they don't eat or drink well during the day, and when they are free at night, they will drink a lot and eat too much, so they often get up at night, resulting in interrupted sleep. Or they may eat acidic foods, drink strong tea, or drink coffee at night, which makes the brain more excited, thus causing insomnia.

4. Physical problems

There are many physical problems that cause insomnia, such as blood pressure problems, gastrointestinal problems, joint problems, breathing problems, heart problems, etc. This requires active improvement of the primary problem, so that the phenomenon of insomnia can disappear faster.

5. Negative emotions

Many people worry too much about work or family, which leads to unwillingness to communicate and low mood over time, which makes them feel depressed and difficult to fall asleep. It will become a habit over a long period of time, resulting in insomnia. It is recommended that everyone should maintain a good mood in their daily life.

6. Too much stress

Nowadays, people are under great pressure from work and life, and are often in a state of anxiety. As a result, their minds are constantly thinking, making it impossible for them to calm down and fall asleep. After a long time, they will suffer from insomnia.

What is the significance of adequate sleep to human organs?

1. Brain

Sleep is both a rest time and a time to organize information for the brain. During sleep, the brain will organize the information in the brain and clean up the metabolic waste generated by the information. Poor sleep will accelerate the decline of brain function.

2. Heart

After the human body falls asleep, the heart rate and blood pressure will become slower, and the heart can "relax" a little. Therefore, long-term insomnia can easily cause heart discomfort and lead to heart problems.

3. Liver

When people lie down to sleep, the blood flow to the liver will increase, which is beneficial to enhancing the function of liver cells and improving the liver's detoxification ability.

4. Kidneys

During sleep, the kidneys can be repaired and kidney deficiency can be improved. If you suffer from insomnia for a long time, it will affect the function of the kidneys and accelerate the decline of kidney function.

5. Gastrointestinal

When people are asleep, our gastrointestinal motility slows down, but it will continue to work overtime. Therefore, don't eat too much or drink alcohol before going to bed to give your stomach and intestines a better rest.

6. Respiratory system

Sleeping helps the lungs to generate and circulate qi and blood better. Long-term insomnia will affect the function of the lungs, and poor lung function will affect the quality of sleep.

During the epidemic, sleep is very important for our body's repair, so everyone should avoid these "triggers" that cause insomnia and give the body's organs more time to maintain.
