"The best time to go out and pick is undoubtedly on a sunny day like this. Dr. Li opened the speech with a clever combination of the fun of picking and the topic of health.
In a vast orchard on the outskirts, Zhang Tao and his friends are enjoying strawberry picking.
Zhang Tao is a software engineer who usually has a lot of pressure at work, and rarely has the opportunity to relax like today.
Dr. Lee continued, "Actually, picking is not only relaxing, but also exercised.
But did you know that while sleep is an important way to regain strength, it also has hidden health risks, especially in certain situations? ”
Zhang Tao was curious, so he asked, "What are the specific situations where sleeping may pose health risks?"
Dr. Lee smiled and began to share his unique perspective.
"First, let's talk about irregular sleep times.
According to research, long-term irregular sleep time can seriously disrupt the body's biological clock;
Not only can this affect mental health, but it may also increase the risk of cerebrovascular disease.
For example, a study involving more than 10,000 participants found that those who slept extremely irregularly had a 30% higher rate of cerebrovascular accidents. ”
Zhang Tao and his friends listened with relish and nodded their heads in understanding.
Dr. Lee went on to say, "The second is drinking alcohol before bedtime.
Many people think that drinking alcohol can help them sleep, but in fact alcohol can interfere with the sleep cycle, especially when entering deep sleep.
In the long term, this can lead to poor sleep quality, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. ”
"There's a third scenario that you may not pay much attention to, and that's sleeping in extreme weather conditions. ”
Dr. Lee's tone suddenly became serious, "Sleeping in an environment of extreme heat or extreme cold puts additional stress on the body, especially the cardiovascular system.
For example, one study noted that mortality due to cardiovascular problems increased significantly during heat waves. ”
To make it more persuasive, Dr. Lee gave a few more specific cases.
He mentioned a patient who failed to cool down properly because he slept directly after working in a hot work environment for a long time, which eventually led to a severe cerebral infarction.
As strawberry picking came to an end, the conversation shifted from easy picking to in-depth health discussions.
How can we adjust our sleep habits to avoid these potential health risks?
Next, he analyzed in detail several effective ways to improve sleep habits;
For example, maintaining a regular sleep schedule, avoiding alcohol before bedtime, and acclimatizing to the ambient temperature;
and the scientific use of air conditioning and heating equipment to guarantee a healthy sleeping environment in all weather conditions.
