A good night Sleep is one of those daily activities that most people usually overlook completely. We tend to think of it as another biological need, such as eating, or taking a shower. But the truth is, the act of sleeping is much more important than you think! Our bedding products are meant to help you enjoy bed time so you can enjoy the many benefits of rest. Just in case you forgot or never heard of them, here are some of the most important:
It will help you maintain or lose weight with good night sleep
People who sleep less than 7 hours a day for sustained periods of time show a tendency to have a higher body mass index (BMI), and see their risk of developing obesity increased by 41%. Furthermore, sleep deprivation makes your body crave sugary and fatty foods which are high in calories, leading to an unhealthy diet.
Maximized athletic performance
Besides getting you ready and motivated to perform at your peak level, adequate sleep enhances fine motor skills, reaction time, muscular power and endurance, as well as your problem-solving skills. It doesn’t matter if you are a high performing athlete or just hit the gym a couple of days a week, you will definitely feel the difference at the time of engaging in physical activities.
Lower risk of diabetes
Numerous studies have shown that short sleep is associated with a greater risk
of developing type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Stats are quite clear on
this, showing that sleeping less than 5 hours a day regularly can increase your
risk of type 2 diabetes by 18%, and also lead to higher chances of developing
obesity and heart disease
It helps avoid depression
Mental health is also something that you should take into consideration when you go to bed. Depression is usually linked to poor sleep quality and sleeping disorders like insomnia or obstructive sleep apnea. That’s why if you have trouble with sleep and notice your mental health has worsened, it is highly recommended to see a healthcare professional to confirm or discard the existence of a sleep disorder.
It boosts your brain and its cognitive functions
Sleep is your brain’s chance to prepare for the next day, enhancing your focus, creativity, and decision-making abilities. It is the moment when new neural connections are formed to help you learn and remember things. This is why going to bed early before an exam is beneficial, since it will solidify all the concepts that you studied during the day. These are only some of the benefits that you can enjoy by having a good night’s sleep. Resting is so crucial for the correct functioning of the human body that it
could be considered as THE most important biological function of them all. That’s why at Nite Nite we passionately create comfortable bamboo bedding and sleepwear that turn sleeping into a pleasurable activity that you can actually look forward to.
