Talk about a strategy that breaks the land.
If you are dragging the feet at 2 pm, we have a preparation solution for your medium depression.
A friendly sleep trick that has been collecting steam is coffee nap and, although it sounds contradictory, some experts swear!
“A coffee nap, where he drinks coffee just before a brief nap, it can be more effective than coffee or nap,” said nutritionist Nichola Ludlam-Raine to the post on Walf of the European retailer Coffee Friend.
Here is why it works: the caffeine takes about 20 minutes to reach its system, just around the moment its nap ends, so that it wakes up with a double photo of energy.
“A short nap naturally reduces adenosine levels, the chemist that induces the dream that makes you feel tired,” said Ludlam-Raine. “When you wake up, the caffeine is starting to work, making you feel even more alert.”
It may seem a bit unconventional, but science says that a shake or java followed by a back of power comes with enough advantages.
“Studies suggest that coffee naps can improve reaction times, alert state and cognitive function, especially the afternoon duration,” he said.
But be careful not to do more time.
“It is important to keep the naps short, no more than 20 minutes, otherwise, it runs the risk of entering a deeper dream, which can make you feel stunned,” he warned.
Here are some ways to really maximize your coffee nap.
Time that is correct
Ludlam-Raine previously told The Post that having his first Joe cup as soon as he wakes up could interfere with the natural levels of cortisol of his body.
If she thinks it can do it, she suggests delaying until mediated at the end of the morning, or around 60 to 90 minutes after waking up to align with the natural decrease in cortisol and allow caffeine impulse to be effective.
Keep it a letter
While a fast nap can rejuvenate its day, nap too long or at the wrong time it can be counterproductive.
Dr. Thomas Michael Kilkenny, director of the Institute of Sleep Medicine at the Hospital of the University of Northwell State Isand, previously told The Post that the naps of 10 to 30 minutes are ideal to prevent the inertia of the dream, the athlete experienced after waking up from a deep sleep.
Experts say that the optimal point for short -term closure is between 1 PM and 3 PM, to align with the natural circadian rhythms of your body.
Avoid night snaps
Be sure not to take a nap too late on the day, otherwise runs the risk of sabotling the night dream.
Taking a nap Early waiting to be sleepy at its normal time is a child how to have a large and late lunch at 5 pm, thinking that you will still be hungry at 7, probably not!
