11 Questions About Sleep You’ve Always Wanted to Ask

When was the last time you slept like a rock and woke up fresh and full of energy on your own without any alarm or disruptions? Yeah, getting enough good-quality sleep seems impossible for many and raises a lot of questions, like what if you can’t sleep at night? Is it bad to eat right before bed? Why do you feel so tired after long but disrupted sleep?

Oh, the last one is one of the most important issues, right? It turns out that’s because a long slumber sesh that involved you constantly waking up is pretty much the same as a night with really short sleep. So if something keeps waking you at night, it’s best to get the source of the problem figured out!

SUMMARY:
– Your brain really needs rest before a big event because the information you get during the day goes from your short-term to long-term memory during sleep.
– After 24 hours of staying awake, a person usually experiences reality distortion, irritability, anxiety, and confusion. If the time without sleep goes up to 48 hours, then it can cause visual hallucinations and cognitive problems.
– Calculate how many hours of sleep you’ll miss out on, divide it into several days leading up to the event if you have to, and add extra hours each time before the sleepless night.
– People who consistently sleep in on their days off snacked more at night and experienced some health problems due to packing on the pounds.
– Sleeping for 9 hours carries a 14% higher risk of death, while it’s 30% higher with 10-hour sleep! Sounds like we should all just stick to 8 hours, huh!
– Avoid that bright morning light when you’re heading home by wearing sunglasses. When you finally go to bed after work, shut all the blinds and curtains, put on a sleeping mask, and make use of earplugs. You want total darkness and silence for good-quality sleep!
– Most nutritionists and sleep experts agree that it’s better to eat the last meal of the day at least 3 hours before dozing off. No more falling into a food coma when you hit the sack!
– According to a 2013 poll by the National Sleep Foundation, an overwhelming majority (83%!) of people who exercised at any time of day (including at night!) reported sleeping better than those who didn’t exercise at all.
– Humans are actually biologically designed to take naps in the afternoon — it’s a natural part of our circadian rhythm. Unfortunately, our work culture still hasn’t made this adjustment.
– During the flight, drink plenty of water and try not to go overboard with food rich in carbs. And when you’ve finally reached your destination, get into the local rhythm the second you get off the plane, no matter how tempting that hotel bed looks!
