Only sleep can people and animals grow, and sleep helps the spleen and stomach digest food. Therefore, sleep is the first tonic for health preservation. If people don’t sleep for one night, it is difficult to recover from the loss of 100 days.
2. Li Yu, a doctor in the Qing Dynasty, once pointed out: & ldquo; The secret of health preservation should be sleep first. It can strengthen the spleen, strengthen the stomach, sleep and nourish the muscles& rdquo;
3, people often say: & ldquo; Food is better than medicine, and sleep is better than food& rdquo; People should conform to the laws of nature and follow the sun, that is, wake up and sleep every day, form the habit of going to bed and getting up early, and don’t work against the sun.
2. What misunderstandings do modern people have about sleep?
the reason why it is difficult for most people to develop the habit of going to bed and getting up early is that there are many misunderstandings about sleep except for some people’s bad sleep habits:
1. Some people think that it is OK to get enough sleep for seven or eight hours a day, so it doesn’t matter to stay up late and make up for sleep during the day.
2. Many people go to bed late or don’t sleep well. They only know that they will feel mentally tired the next day, but they don’t know how much harm it will do to their body.
3. Many people think that insomnia and difficulty in falling asleep are just small problems. Just take a few sleeping pills. They don’t think it is caused by the imbalance of internal organs in the body.
4. Some people like reading and writing articles at night. They feel quiet after 23 o’clock. They are also very energetic and efficient.
in order to get rid of the above misunderstandings about sleep, we must first know the harm of bad sleep habits to the human body and when sleep is conducive to health preservation.

Now more and more teenagers suffer from depression and even suicide, mostly because they often stay up late and hurt their liver and gall（ Therefore, depression and anxiety can’t just look for psychological factors. Psychological abnormalities often come from physiological imbalance)
5. Cardiovascular diseases: not sleeping during childbirth can cause liver blood deficiency.
