Sleeping less than seven and a half hours a day can reduce thinking ability and memory……

Taking less and more sleep than necessary, both are not good for health. The ability to think and understand decreases in such people. Researchers from Washington University have made this claim in their research. Researcher and neurologist Dr. Brendan Lucy say, due to incomplete sleep or not sleeping properly, there is a direct effect on the brain. This effect on the brain is visible in your ability to think and understand. How many hours of sleep should a person get on average and what to do if he does not sleep, according to the latest research, it is found that 7.30 hours of sleep is the best remedy for good health for a person.

Researchers say, if you are getting 8 hours of sleep and set the alarm 30 minutes earlier, then seven and a half hours of sleep has a positive effect on the brain. Good and sound sleep reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Research on the effects of good sleep for 7.30 hours had been conducted on about 100 elderly people with an average age of 75 years. For research, a small monitor was tied on the forehead of these elders. The type of activity in the brain during sleep was checked with a monitor and recorded. The research that lasted an average of four and a half years revealed that it has a good effect on brain activity. 

A special type of protein is responsible for Alzheimer's disease in patients. What is the level of that protein in the cerebrospinal fluid of the brain of the elderly involved was checked in the research? Patients who slept for about 7.5 hours each night had better cognitive scores. At the same time, people who slept 5 or five and a half hours a day got this score lower. 

Sleep has a direct link to Alzheimer's- Earlier research had revealed that there is a connection to Alzheimer's disease with half-depleted sleep. Symptoms of Alzheimer's include memory loss, confusion, and a delay in understanding new things. If we want to avoid them, then we must take at least seven and a half hours of sleep.

4-7-8 Technique also relieves insomnia- If there is no sleep at night, then you can adopt the 4-7-8 breathing technique. It has been prepared by Dr. Andrew Weil, a scientist at the University of Arizona, USA. This technique is based on Pranayama. If you adopt this technique for a long time, then you start falling asleep quickly. To do this, sit or lie down in a comfortable position in a quiet place with the correct posture. If you are using this technique for sleep then it is better to lie down. Now put the front part of the tongue with the palate just behind the teeth. Keep it like this throughout the practice, and then start to follow the 4-7-8 technique.

What is the 4-7-8 Technique? Yes. This is a scientifically proven deep breathing style that works before going to bed. Take a deep breath in and count 1-4 and then hold breathe and count 1-7 and release your breath by counting 1-8. Repeat this technique minimum of 10 times surely, it will relax your brain and make you ready to go to deep sleep.

If you can't sleep, drink lukewarm milk- In recent research by Chinese scientists, it has been proved that drinking lukewarm milk leads to good sleep. Research by the National Natural Science Foundation of China has revealed that an amino acid called tryptophan is found in milk. Apart from this, research also revealed that milk peptide casein hydrolysate is also found in it, which reduces stress and improves sleep. Together these two things remove the problem of insomnia.
