Early Riser - 4 Reasons You Should Be One!
Early to bed and early to rise, makes one healthy, wealthy and wise. We have all heard this age-old adage since time immemorial. Yet, how many of us actually adhere to it? Staying up late and waking up even later has become a lifestyle problem that many of us have succumbed to. It has become common to hear people complaining that they simply cannot make it out of bed on time. This can lead to various health problems in the long run.
So what are the health advantages of rising early. Read on to find out more!
Healthier Appetite: Your body has been on a 'fast' all night (6 to 8 hours) and you need to 'break the fast' with some healthy food. When you wake up late, you tend to skip your A.M. meal which makes your body go into starvation mode. And the moment you wake up (after prolonged hours of sleep) and eat something, you are more likely to overeat and crave unhealthy foods. If you wake up early, you help the body in asking for the right food at the right time, which creates a healthy appetite and healthy food intake as a consequence. Moreover, having a good healthy breakfast is a foundation for building healthy eating habits and makes you less likely to eat junk the rest of the day.
Depression: People who wake up early are generally less prone to depression. A medical study has also shown that there are definite links between the tendency to hit the bed late and depression. It is a well-known fact that a lack of routine can lead to a state of imbalance in the mind and body. This can also have an adverse effect on the hormonal balance of the person and lead to depression and mental conditions along the same lines.
BMI: People who wake up early and work their way into the day with proper meals and eating habits tend to have a more balanced BMI. A healthy BMI is where you weight is appropriate for your height. This may differ for men and women with the same height.
Exercise: When you wake up late, you actually have that much more of catching up to do, which can lead to grogginess and sudden jerks to the nerves and neurotransmitters as well as the signals that they emanate. All this has a profound effect on the amount of time that we allot for other activities like exercise, which can help one destress even as it keeps us healthy. more
