Insomnia used to be more common among middle-aged and elderly people, but with the progress of society and the improvement of science and technology, it is now more and more common among many young people. It is because these young people stay up late to play games, one at a time, and at the same time, in order not to be sleepy when playing games at night, they often drink coffee to refresh themselves.
Coffee contains caffeine, which has the effect of stimulating the nerves, so we are easily excited after drinking coffee, and it is not easy to get sleepy, especially when drinking coffee at night, it will increase the excitability of the central nervous system, thereby causing insomnia.
Staying up late for a long time breaks the rhythm of the body, and symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, forgetfulness, irritability, and anxiety will gradually appear.
In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, these are all caused by the consumption of hard work, the loss of the heart and spirit, the main blood of the heart, and the main god, the official of the monarch, the master of the five internal organs, and the place of the spirit. The heart contains God, and God occupies an important position in the life activities of the human body, and sleep, as an important physiological function of the human body, is also determined by the God who is the master of the heart. Therefore, more and more young people have symptoms of insomnia and palpitation, and most of them have the habit of staying up late and drinking coffee.
Insomnia in the elderly often appears first, palpitation and palpitations occasionally appear, this is because of the decline of physical function, often the liver and kidney are insufficient, and there is a deficiency of yin and blood, resulting in liver and blood deficiency and kidney yin deficiency, and then there is mental malnutrition.
Therefore, whether the elderly or young people have insomnia, palpitations, and palpitations, they must nourish their hearts and calm their nerves when they are conditioned. Of course, when there is a deficiency of qi and blood, it is necessary to replenish the blood, because the cause of the person often does not appear alone, and if the cause is solved, and then the deficiency is made up, it will be very easy to recuperate.
