"Three Dos and Three Don'ts" to ensure a good night's sleep for men

It is no exaggeration to say that sleep is a great source of health. How can men sleep well? First of all, we should develop a good habit of going to bed and getting up on time, and follow the objective law of alternating between sleep and wakefulness. In this way, we can stabilize sleep and avoid causing excessive fatigue of cerebral cortical cells. As we all know, a strict work and rest system is not only a guarantee for creative labor, but also has great significance for physiological processes such as sleep and wakefulness. Strictly adhering to the work and rest time can make our sleep and wakefulness process - even like a conditioned reflex - more natural and more profound.

In addition, do not engage in intense mental work before going to bed, and avoid vigorous exercise or physical work. Instead, take a walk outdoors and try to reduce subjective stimulation. Men with easily excited personalities should not give exciting speeches, read exciting books or magazines, or watch unforgettable movies or dramas before going to bed. Do not have dinner too late or overeat. Eat light food that is easy to digest, pay attention to eating more vegetables and a certain proportion of miscellaneous grains, and keep the bowels smooth. Do not use too much seasoning.

It is not suitable to smoke, drink strong tea or coffee and other stimulating drinks at night, and do not drink too much drinks or liquid juice. Smoke, tea and coffee will stimulate the brain, making it difficult for the brain to enter an inhibitory state. Drinking too much liquid juice will increase the frequency of urination, which is not conducive to falling asleep again. As we all know, brushing teeth and washing face before going to bed are necessary. But you should also develop the habit of washing your feet with warm water, which can promote blood circulation in the lower limbs and help you fall asleep quickly.

If conditions permit, you can wipe your body with warm water or take a hot bath. Take off outer clothes before going to bed, change underwear in time, wear loose outer clothes if conditions permit, keep bedding clean, and dry it frequently to keep it dry and kill bacteria.

"Three Dos and Three Don'ts" for Men Before Going to Bed A man spends more than one-third of his life sleeping. Normal and good sleep can regulate physiological functions and maintain the balance of the nervous system, which is an important part of life.

If you want to get a good sleep at night, it is very important to pay attention to the three things to do and three things to avoid before going to bed.

The three advantages are:

1. Take a walk before going to bed. "Yangsheng" in Ziyan Yinshu says: "Walk before going to sleep, walk around the room a thousand steps before going to bed. ... If you cover yourself, your mind will be tired, and if you are tired, you will want to rest. When you are extremely active, you will seek tranquility."

2. Foot bath before going to bed, "Hot feet before going to bed is better than taking sleeping pills." Wash your feet with warm water for 15-20 minutes before going to bed to dilate blood vessels in the feet, promote blood circulation, and make people fall asleep easily.

3. Brush your teeth before going to bed. The Complete Book of Golden Elixir says: "All the poisons from food you eat during the day are accumulated in the mouth. This is good for keeping your teeth healthy."

The "three taboos" are:

Avoid overeating. Dinner should be 70% to 80% full. Do not eat before going to bed to avoid increasing the burden on the stomach and intestines.

Second, avoid excessive entertainment. Don't watch intense movies, TV shows or football games before going to bed, and don't talk about nostalgic, sad or scary things.

Third, avoid drinking strong tea and coffee. This will prevent frequent urination and mental excitement from affecting sleep. In addition, pay attention to a comfortable environment at night, a clean bedroom, and good air circulation to benefit your health.
