Immune-Friendly HABITS that You Can Do Right Now

  1. Drinking water in the morning: Drinking water first thing in the morning can help you rehydrate after a night's sleep and flush out toxins from your body. This habit can also help to kick-start your metabolism and improve digestion. Aim to drink 16-20 ounces of water as soon as you wake up.
  2. Avoiding late-night snacks: Eating carbohydrates or snacks late at night can disrupt your sleep and metabolism, which may negatively affect immune function. Late-night eating can also contribute to weight gain, which can increase the risk of chronic diseases. It's best to avoid eating after 9 p.m. or at least a few hours before bed to allow your body time to digest properly.
  3. Moving lightly every hour: Sitting for long periods of time can increase the risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes, and may also weaken the immune system. Taking short breaks to move around and stretch every hour can help to improve circulation and reduce the negative effects of sitting.
  4. Blocking sound and light when you sleep: Good sleep is essential for immune function and overall health. Blocking out sound and light can help to promote restful sleep, allowing the body to focus on immune function and other restorative processes. You can use earplugs or a white noise machine to block out sound and invest in blackout curtains or an eye mask to block out light.
  5. Reducing stress: Chronic stress can weaken the immune system and increase the risk of infections and illnesses. Practicing stress-reduction techniques, such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga, can help to promote relaxation and reduce stress. It's also helpful to establish a relaxing bedtime routine, such as taking a warm bath, reading a book, or listening to calming music.

In addition to the above habits, eating a healthy and balanced diet, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep, practicing good hygiene, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and getting regular medical check-ups can all contribute to improved immune function and overall health. Encourage your readers to adopt healthy habits that work best for them and to consult with a healthcare professional if they have any concerns about their immune health.

Alarm, Cause of Chronic Fatigue?

Among the workers who have to go to work early in the morning, many alarms are set in several minutes to wake up at a fixed time. However, there is a study that sets several alarms like this can cause chronic fatigue. According to a study by Professor of Sleep Medicine at Harvard University, Buxton, the human body releases awakening hormones when it wakes up after hearing an alarm. However, when you turn off the alarm and lie back down, the activity of the awakening hormone is delayed and the adenosine, a substance that causes fatigue, is secreted, making the human body asleep inertial state that is not fully awake from sleep. Sleep inertia usually lasts 30 minutes and 2 hours long. If you wake up in an alarm every few minutes and then fall asleep again, sleep inertia lasts longer. If these are repeated, they can accumulate fatigue and lead to chronic fatigue. "Never press the snooze button." Professor Buxton asks. The snooze button is similar to setting the alarm at interval...
