Quý vị thân mến, hơn 2000 năm trước, Hippocrates - cha đẻ của ngành y học hiện đại đã nói: “Khả năng tự chữa lành trong mỗi người là nguồn lực lớn nhất/ giúp chúng ta khỏe mạnh”.
The secret of good sleep increases the ability to self-cure the body.
Ladies and gentlemen, more than 2,000 years ago,
Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, said that
the ability to self-cure in each person is the greatest source of health.
I don't know if you remember, in a recent health video,
Nature has introduced how our body protects itself
with a terrifying self-curing mechanism.
One of the simplest ways to improve the ability to self-cure
but is often overlooked and overlooked,
that is a quality sleep.
The benefits of sleep are not limited to restoring strength,
body and spirit.
Good sleep also enhances immunity
and performs many other beneficial functions.
And to continue the series of videos exploring the secret of the human body,
Nguyen Ngoc Kinh invites you to find out
the mechanism of self-curing while sleeping
and the secret of having a good sleep.
How does the immune system work while we are sleeping?
Yes, all of us need to rest,
and sleep is a necessary natural need that nature has given to humans.
We often say this is an important time
to help the body recover and regenerate energy.
First, there are four hormones that self-cure
to the extreme at night when sleeping.
According to experts,
one of the special gifts that the body gives every night
if you go to bed on time,
are the four natural self-curing hormones.
They are called melatonin, growth hormone,
prolactin and endorphin.
These are all extremely important hormones for health
and are produced extensively while sleeping.
Melatonin is a miraculous biological clock in the body
that helps control the rhythm of the night,
adjust the mood and sleep better.
Not only that,
this hormone also plays an important role in the immune system,
inhibits the formation of blood clots,
anti-oxidants,
reduces swelling and prevents infections.
The longer you sleep and the deeper you sleep,
the more melatonin you produce,
the highest in about 2 to 4 a.m.
and gradually decreases after that.
Growth hormone.
In addition to its main function
is to make children grow taller every day,
this hormone also directly participates in the immune system
by increasing the number of lymph cells
and promoting the function of the NK cell,
which means the natural cancer-killing cell.
It sounds strange,
but the NK cell plays an important role
like a scout,
running all over the body to detect,
kill the tumor and prevent the formation of cancer.
According to research,
people with reduced NK cell function
are more likely to die from cancer
1.6 times higher than normal people.
This hormone is mainly produced at night,
about an hour after we sink deep into sleep
and reach the highest level is from 23 hours
to 1 a.m. the next day.
Therefore, if you go to bed late,
it will slow down the process of releasing growth hormone.
Prolactin.
At first, it was only known as a milk hormone.
Recently, scientists have discovered
its self-curing ability.
Prolactin is considered
an excellent antioxidant
for NK cells to destroy tumors,
promote the growth of other immune cells,
and increase the ability of the cells of large cells.
And of course,
the highest level of prolactin
is also at night
while we sleep.
That's why we see
mothers giving birth
often advised to sleep enough
because just one night of sleep
will reduce the amount of milk
in the next morning.
Endorphins.
People often hear about endorphins
because it is a hormone that brings
a sense of happiness and natural pain reduction.
Moreover, endorphins also play
a key role in the self-curing body
that occurs at night.
Most immune cells include
neutrophils, large cells,
stem cells, lymphocytes,
T and B cells all have
an endorphin attached to them.
This is an important key
for the body to activate
and disperse the immune functions
of the immune system
and other intermediate substances
to destroy the disease.
Endorphins are mainly produced at night
to maximize at about 6 a.m.
and then gradually decrease in the morning.
Second, sleep promotes the production
of anti-inflammatory cytokines.
This activity is combined with sleep
and the biological activity of the body.
Whenever in contact with any enemy,
endorphins quickly set up
protective fences to trap enemies
and form anti-inflammatories.
This is most clearly shown
on the outside with symptoms
such as redness, swelling,
fatigue and fever.
Studies have shown that
increasing the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines
at night has the effect of
neutralizing the immune system
and helping the body to recover faster.
Why do we see that when we are sick,
our body fat or pain
often increases at night?
People also tend to sleep more,
even fall asleep.
However, after waking up,
we feel that our health is much better.
The main reason is that our body
needs to spend as much time as possible
to perform the tasks it needs to do.
Third, increases the memory of the immune system.
While sleeping,
the interaction between the immune factors
continuously occurs,
helping the body to remember how to recognize
and respond to each kind of resistance.
Evidence in vaccine trials show
that the effect of the vaccine is negligible
in adults who often lack sleep.
Insufficient sleep will cause
the body to not have enough time
to develop the immune memory,
leading to poor protection,
even though it has been vaccinated.
So far, people have not been able to understand
why this process is concentrated when sleeping.
This seems to be similar to
the fact that sleeping helps the brain
to strengthen learning and memory.
However, scientists still believe
that there are some factors related to sleep
that create favorable conditions
for this phenomenon to occur.
For example, at night,
slow breathing and muscles
help the body release energy
for the immune system to perform its tasks.
If the symptoms of the infection
occur during the day,
it will be uncomfortable and
will interfere with the functioning
of the mental body.
Therefore, it is very possible that
our body has evolved and adapted
by controlling this process
during sleep at night.
Isn't that amazing?
And finally,
the body will automatically clean up
when we are sleeping.
The stressful working environment
is the source of negative emotions
and it will last long at night.
If not resolved in time,
anxiety and heat will accumulate
and produce hormones
that are toxic to the body
such as cortisone and other neurotransmitters.
Experts advise that
the simplest way to overcome this situation
is to let go of your mind
and sleep deeply.
The reason is that when you fall asleep,
as well as when the body receives
the activation signal to clean up those emotions,
it also helps us to wake up
and relieve temporary worries.
In addition, at night,
the increase in melatonin
also helps the immune system
to function more effectively
and treat the errors
caused by daily activities.
Sleep enough also increases
the flow of blood to the liver,
supports the liver to exchange nutrients,
detoxify toxins, bacteria
and viruses more effectively.
A good night's sleep
really brings too many benefits,
doesn't it?
But today's busy life
has attracted a lot of attention
and worries,
making us obsessed with work
and forget that
the body is craving a good night's sleep.
So what is the secret
to have a quality and effective night's sleep?
Let's come to the second part
of the video with Nguyen Ngoc.
First, the human brain
really likes sleeping habits.
One of the simplest methods
to control sleep deprivation
is to control the daily sleep schedule
and set up a good sleeping habit.
Adjust your biological clock
by setting the sleeping time
and waking up every day
in the golden hour
from 11 am to 6 am.
Dr. Dale Gibson,
a sleep training expert,
said that the more we
follow the sleep schedule
and wake up at the right time every day,
the more it helps the biological clock
work more effectively.
Before sleeping from 30 minutes to 1 hour,
we should avoid using electronic devices.
Blue light from TV or phone
will prevent the natural
production of melatonin,
making us more difficult to sleep.
Instead, try a warm bath,
read a book,
or listen to a light classical music.
This will help relax
and make it easier to go to sleep.
In addition, the space in the room
also has a certain impact
on the quality of sleep,
ladies and gentlemen.
A messy bed and heavy smell
will certainly not
make us feel good.
But it is not because of that
that we sniff the scent of chemicals
will cause more headache.
Clean up and decorate your room
to create a tidy space
to always feel comfortable
every time you go to bed, ladies and gentlemen.
And one more important thing,
we can lie flat,
put a pillow between the two pillows
and add a pillow under the belly
to have the most comfortable sleeping posture
and let sleep come to us faster.
Eat a healthy drink in the evening
to help sleep better and deeper.
A healthy dinner will benefit sleep
when we eat an adequate amount.
Do not eat too full
to avoid stomach upset
and do not eat too little
or eat too early
to make your stomach hungry when you go to bed.
If you are hungry,
drinking a glass of warm milk
about 30 minutes ago will be a good suggestion
to help replenish energy
and make it easier to go to sleep.
Sour or hot foods
are often the culprits
of heatstroke, nausea,
which makes it harder for us to sleep.
We should also limit stimulants
such as leaves, coffee, tea
or sparkling water
to avoid making the body excited
to the point of being unable to sleep.
Some people often have the habit
of drinking a glass of wine in the evening
because they think that drinking wine
can help relax and make you sleepy
faster. However,
wine reduces the quality of sleep
and increases the rate of brain cells aging.
Therefore, it is best not to drink wine
before going to bed.
Medication for good sleep
Ladies and gentlemen,
since thousands of years ago,
humans have practiced meditation
to awaken the mind
and enhance the moral spirit,
but it is not the only benefit of meditation.
Many studies have shown that meditation
helps us sleep better,
sleep deeper,
even those who have no problem sleeping.
Meditation also helps reduce pain
and symptoms of emotional anxiety
in people with chronic diseases.
This is a kind of meditation
that enhances the peace inside
without cost or equipment.
There are many different meditation methods
such as Qigong, Yoga
and if you are interested,
you can find out
which meditation is suitable for you.
Thanks to the psychological support
from the CBT phrase
If you have applied
personal measures
but still have not been effective,
you can ask for psychological support.
CBT is an English word
meaning
cognitive behavior.
This phrase is commonly used
in modern psychological treatment.
During the treatment process,
we will work with a psychological expert
and have a specific process.
The doctor will guide the patient
to recognize the wrong thoughts
or emotions or negative behaviors
that are existing in themselves.
Thanks to this, we can consider
and deal more effectively
than the situations we are facing.
When the psychological treatment is stable,
it will be easier to sleep.
Dear friends,
I have learned an interesting piece of information.
If we add up the total sleep time,
we have slept half of our life.
It can be seen that sleep
plays a special role
in our survival.
Another study says
sleep affects 35% of the adult population.
Some people only need a few nights of sleep
and may become a phantom.
I hope that the information
I have just shared
can help you understand
how the body heals itself at night
when we sleep.
And don't miss the precious sleep
because it is also the way
we treasure the miracle
that nature has given to each person.
Dear friends,
I would like to end
the program.
Thank you for watching.
Goodbye and see you in the next video.
you
