Common and useful sleep habits that you may try to adopt to make the coming day better



Do you wake up in the morning after a good night's sleep still feeling tired or not feeling refreshed?

So, in fact, it is due to not taking care of a few simple things that can help make the next day your best after a good night's sleep.

This was explained in a new medical research in the United States.

A University of California study identified 4 elements that make you feel refreshed when you wake up in the morning.

The study involved 833 people, most of whom were twins, allowing for genetic influences.

During the study, their diet, physical activity, sleep habits and glucose levels were monitored for 2 weeks, and the subjects were asked daily how well they felt when they woke up in the morning.

The first factor explored in the study was sleep duration, meaning that people are more physically and mentally alert when they wake up in the morning after sleeping longer.

Daytime exercise was another factor.

According to the researchers, there is a link between more physical activity during the day (less activity at night) and better sleep, making people feel more refreshed in the morning.

The third factor is breakfast. Consuming carbohydrates like oatmeal, bananas, yogurt or others in the first meal of the morning makes you feel fatter, while more protein has the opposite effect.

The final factor is blood sugar levels after breakfast.

If the blood sugar level rises rapidly after breakfast, mental and physical performance decreases, whereas a slow rise in blood sugar after a carbohydrate-based breakfast increases performance.

Simply put, eating too much sugar at breakfast raises blood sugar too quickly, which can result in lethargy.

The researchers said that the results indicate that taking care of a few simple things can improve the quality of sleep, which will lead to a good day.

He said that more research will be done in this regard and the relationship between people's daily behaviors and sleep will be evaluated.

The outcomes of this particular study were published in the journal Nature Communications.
