The Science of Sleep: Why You Need 7 to 8 Hours a Night.

8 things you should avoid even if you sleep 8 hours a day

If you're sleeping for more than 8 hours a day and you still feel tired and troubled, you should take the time to take a look. Sometimes stress can be the cause, but when you wake up in the morning, the cause of fatigue is quite different. Here are eight things that can interfere with your sleep at night. It's called "Eight things you should avoid even if you sleep eight hours a day."

01. It is not constant every day.

Our life has a cycle in which sleep and daily rhythms repeat. So it is ideal to go to bed at the same time every night. Repeated rhythm breaks can cause drowsiness and fatigue.

02. Driving on the weekends to sleep

If you sleep five to six hours during the week and sleep on the weekends, then your body's biological rhythm may break, causing sleep disorders. It also increases the risk of developing obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Do not change the time you wake up for more than an hour.

03. Postpone the alarm

Turning off the alarm and going back 15 minutes does not help. When you fall asleep again, you may fall into a deep sleep phase and become more tired when you wake up. Set an alarm every morning at the same time and train your willpower to wake up.
04. There is too much light in the room.

When the eyes come in contact with some form of light, the body inhibits the production of melatonin, a hormone that induces sleep. This includes both the TV button's luminescence, smartphones, and natural and artificial lighting. It is recommended to turn off all electronic devices completely in the bedroom. 
                             
05. Skip breakfast

Breakfast causes the bio clock to count down until the next break. If too much time passes between getting up and eating, the level of stress hormone (cortisol) in your body increases.
06. Eat hard and sweet food before bed.

Avoid eating as much as possible before falling asleep. Foods with a particularly high blood sugar index increase cortisol in the body. This effect lasts for 5 hours, so it's best to give up anything like pizza, cakes, and potatoes five hours before falling asleep and replace them with lighter foods like yogurt or low-fat meat.
07. Untidy dragonfly

When things go to bed, we remind ourselves of things we haven't done all day. On the other hand, a neat room and a bed with a fresh and fragrant scent will stimulate you to fall asleep early. It's a good idea to tidy up to get a good night's sleep.
08. Hot shower or bath just before falling asleep

Soaking in warm bath water can help you relax and fall asleep, but it is not recommended to use it right before bed. Body temperature loss is one of the signals that the body sends to us. Hot showers or baths before bedtime interfere with this signal. You should shower 1:30 to 2 hours before bedtime.
