Waking up early and staying up late can have an impact on human health, but to varying degrees. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the health status of the human body is affected by the natural environment and lifestyle, and waking up early and staying up late can disrupt the body's biological clock, but the degree of impact is different.
First of all, waking up early has a positive impact on human health. On the one hand, waking up early can help people adjust their biological clock, maintain endocrine balance, reduce the risk of depression, and help improve quality of life and reduce the risk of disease.
On the other hand, waking up early can promote blood circulation and metabolism, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, help improve the body's immunity, and help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In addition, waking up early can help people have more time to exercise and work, which helps maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Early risers can get enough sleep, and the metabolites produced by the brain's metabolism can be eliminated in time, which can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease. The heart is also well rested enough to keep the resting heart rate at a normal level.
As a detoxification organ, the liver can properly discharge toxins after waking up in the morning, maintaining the body's immunity. The kidneys get enough rest after waking up in the morning to avoid the damage to the kidneys from staying up late.
In contrast, staying up late has a greater impact on human health. Staying up late for a long time can lead to decreased immunity, metabolic disorders, and increased risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and other diseases.
In addition, staying up late will also affect the body's biological clock, resulting in insomnia, anxiety, depression and other symptoms, and may even lead to acne, dark circles, hair loss, sudden deafness, relaxation, myopia and other explicit symptoms.
People who stay up late often have a reduced amount of sleep because they go to bed late, making it impossible for the body to get enough rest. The brain's metabolites are not excreted in a timely manner, which increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease. The heart doesn't get enough rest, which increases the resting heart rate and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease.
The detoxification function of the liver is affected, and toxins accumulate in the body, which reduces the body's immunity and increases the risk of various diseases. If the kidneys don't get enough rest, it can lead to kidney failure. The stomach and intestines can also be damaged by staying up late and eating for a long time.
So, how should we choose? Traditional Chinese medicine suggests that people should follow the laws of nature and maintain adequate sleep duration and a fixed sleep cycle. Falling asleep at 10 to 11 p.m. every night and waking up from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. the next morning can maintain the body's endocrine balance and contribute to good health.
In addition, we should also pay attention to lifestyle adjustments, maintain good eating habits, exercise moderately, and avoid excessive fatigue and stress to maintain good health.
