A new study identified 3 main factors that make a difference in waking up in the morning in good condition with a feeling of happiness, and scientists said that these factors, regardless of the genetic factors in which the individual was born, can all be modified to some extent to ensure a better start in the morning, according to what was published by the website “Science Alert”.
“Why do we wake up one morning, we feel vigilant and another morning, we feel tired and lacking when waking up?” Said the team of neuroscientists and a sleeping researcher, Rafael Vallat from the University of California Berkeley.
A total of 833 people participated in the study, most of them twins (these researchers helped liquidate the differences due to genes), over a period of two weeks, eating, physical activity, sleep patterns and glucose levels were recorded, while volunteers also classified their vigilance at several points a day.
The first factor that matters is the sleep pattern:
The duration, timing and efficiency of sleep was linked to a longer period and waking up late than usual to improve vigilance in the morning, the second factor was the amount of exercises that people got, on the previous day the higher levels of movement in the day (in addition to the less physical activity at night) were associated with sleep Constant and less disturbing, which in turn increased vigilance from the participants in the morning.
secondly :
Breakfast, morning meals that contain more carbohydrates led to better vigilance levels, while more protein had an opposite effect, by maintaining calories in the submitted meals as they are, researchers can focus on the nutritional content of what is eaten.
Third:
High blood sugar levels after breakfast – tested using a pure glucose fluid drink – have been associated with a decrease in vigilance, a low blood glucose level, which was seen after participants eating a carbohydrate breakfast, improved vigilance.
In other words, how the body treats food is important, and excessive intake of sugar leads to the breakdown of sugar rather than sugar rush in the morning.
Other factors that play a role in the daily awakening of the mood and the age of volunteers, although these factors cannot be controlled just like the time when you go to bed and what you eat at breakfast.
In addition to reporting their daily behaviors, the participants took normative meals and wore an acceleration scale watch (to measure sleep and activity) and a continuous glucose monitoring device (to measure blood sugar levels after meals), which is better than most studies that depend on questionnaires alone..
