Healthy eating:
In the case of a balanced diet, it is important to eat foods such as dark green vegetables, which are rich in vitamins, folic acid and fiber, as well as lean proteins, such as fish and poultry. These foods contribute to reducing and combating the possible effects of stress because they can reduce inflammation levels in the body. While a certain level of inflammation isn’t bad—sometimes just the body’s response to injury, stress, or even exercise—too much inflammation for too long can lead to oxidative stress. When balanced, stress can help heal the body, but out of control it can damage organs.
In our view, everyone should have a healthy diet in their routines, teenagers and young people are the future of the nation, and investing in their health and nutrition is fundamental for a healthier and more productive society
Tips for maintaining regular sleep:
There is nothing more rewarding than, after a long day of activities, lying in bed, relaxing and sleeping peacefully. However, not everyone gets regular sleep with the frequency and quality they should. Despite being an intimate moment, public data on the subject is worrying: 65% of the population has poor sleep quality, but only 7% seek medical help, according to the Mapa do Sono dos Brasileiros survey, carried out by Ibope. The problem is that insomnia is one of the risk factors for chronic diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes and can even contribute to the development of Alzheimer's.
The main villain for contemporary insomnia are digital devices. Not that electronic devices themselves cause insomnia, but it is the LED light used to highlight the functions of the devices' screens that emits the controversial blue light. And yes, this can be a health hazard.
Main benefits for sleeping well:
Mental health: it is during sleep that stress reduces adrenaline, as cortisol, a hormone linked to these conditions, has a drop in production. In other words, sleeping well is invigorating and calming.
Current memory: What you ate for breakfast and what you did 20 years ago are recorded in your brain and it is during sleep that so-called short- and long-term memories are processed. That’s why when you sleep poorly for several days, you may have memory lapses. Furthermore, those who are sleep deprived also tend to have slow thinking. Better watch out.
Disease prevention: sleeping poorly has a direct impact on the immune system. It is during the night, while we rest, that the body produces defense cells. Therefore, when there is insufficient sleep, the chances of getting sick increase.
Renewed skin: a lot is said about melatonin and its role in a good night’s sleep. This is because melatonin is the sleep-regulating hormone. Many people even started taking melatonin supplements to combat insomnia. However, before you go shopping, it is important that you consult a doctor and find out if it is the best treatment for your case. Furthermore, melatonin produced during sleep fights free radicals and also acts as an antioxidant, which improves the appearance of the skin and makes it healthier.
