Owls are not long-lived, but they easily become early risers.

Endocrinologist, specialist of the Moscow State University clinic, doctor with 23 years of experience, talks about important scientific discoveries

I agree with the great Russian physiologist Ivan Petrovich Pavlov, who says that there is nothing more powerful in the body's work than rhythms.

There are no owls, at least as many as we think. There is an unreasonable human behavior that violates the principles of physiology by staying awake at night.

If we are all sent to the army and the regime of the day is normalized there, all very quickly become larks. Because people with a genetic disorder, the so-called delayed falling asleep syndrome, only 0.5% of the total 8 billion.

That is, there are so few of them that you may not even meet them in your life.

So let's take it as an axiom that we ourselves disrupt important physiological rhythms of the body.

At about 9 pm, our hormone cortisol tends to its lowest level. It should be small so that at this moment another hormone, melatonin, begins to be synthesized. But if a person sat down with a computer, turned on an exciting TV series,

I emphasize - if you go on stage cortisol, everything else goes to hell. Under its influence, a person functions perfectly, his head starts to work very well, he copes with all matters, goes to bed at three o'clock, gets up at two days and thinks that he is all right did.

But in fact, this person's entire hormonal background is disrupted. Low melatonin, not enough growth hormone, fatigue, early aging.

A person has an ingenious adaptation system, he adapts to such bad conditions. And thus he loses his resources in this adaptation.

Never in his life will a person who goes to bed after midnight live a long, rich, healthy life.

What to do?

Fall asleep at 11 pm and before bed - no TV. Book, conversation, walk.

You quickly get used to good things, you just have to afford it.
