Chapter 6 Ways to Improve Sleep Quality
A strange thing happened the next day. Several employees became more awake, which proved that their sleep quality had improved. This was a surprise to Liang Shicheng.
Early this morning, Liang Shicheng originally planned to continue to observe the changes in the blood sugar levels of the employees.
It was unexpectedly discovered that a few employees were significantly more sober than yesterday. He took out his notebook and checked it carefully. After confirming this, he began to look for the cause, but he didn't seem to make any effort on this issue deliberately.
But these few people Liang Shicheng had the impression, because it happened that these few chose to stay in the company to work overtime yesterday.
It is known that wakefulness is determined by sleep. Those who stayed to work overtime have increased their wakefulness. There should be other reasons for this.
Besides, there are always people who stayed to work overtime, but the unexpected increase in sobriety only happened this morning.
An idea immediately appeared in Liang Shicheng’s mind, would it have something to do with yesterday’s dinner...
That is to say, the value of blood sugar level can also affect the quality of sleep.
Liang Shicheng turned on the computer and began to study the problem. This time he did not check the keywords, but began to verify his own idea.
After this period of study and understanding, Liang Shicheng understood some knowledge, or tutored some knowledge that he already knew.
The brain's demand for blood sugar is different from that of the body. The body consumes extra blood sugar during high-intensity work, and the demand is very low during rest. Energy consumption in different states is very different.
But this is not the case with the brain. The energy consumption of the brain is always high, and it never stops.
The brain is a very energy-consuming organ. It accounts for 2% of the body's weight and consumes 20% of the body's energy.
Many people can not exercise all year round and eat a lot, but they don't gain weight or accumulate fat. This is because the brain consumes most of the energy, which is a great contribution.
The key point is that the brain does not rest when sleeping, and is still working at high speed, even when sleeping, the brain is more active and consumes more energy.
In this process, the brain has to sort out the memories during the day and remove the toxins accumulated in the brain. This is not easier for the brain cells than the concentrated work during the day. These tasks are very necessary and consume energy. The work efficiency of the brain at night determines Sleep quality.
At night, brain cells get a stable and sufficient blood sugar supply, so that the brain can be awake during the day.
Therefore, the human brain also needs a stable blood sugar supply when sleeping, but people cannot eat for more than ten hours at night.
Although the stomach rests at night, the small intestine, which is responsible for absorbing nutrients, is in working condition throughout the day.
So Liang Shicheng realized a truth. For his employees, in order to improve the attribute of soberness, the demand for low glycemic index food for dinner is more urgent, and it must be high-calorie low glycemic index food.
In addition, yesterday he promised to provide snacks and tea time to employees, Liang Shicheng is ready to implement these two things together.
First of all, the lunch freedom of the employees is restored. Breakfast and lunch are still solved by themselves, but in the morning and afternoon, a "tea time" is placed 2 hours apart for only 5 minutes, and Liang Shicheng provides snacks according to everyone's taste.
At the same time, employees are provided with a variety of beverages, such as cola and milk tea with sugar. It is not allowed to drink it all at once, and only allow one sip to drink.
In the end, in exchange, everyone’s dinner was eaten in the company, and no complaints were allowed.
When it was time to get off work that evening, Liang Shicheng's leader stopped him. At first, he was panicked. When he turned around, he saw that the leader followed several people and shouted at him: "We are going to go to the restaurant today."
Everyone laughed and laughed along the way. It seemed that the leader hadn't noticed his misconduct in the unit, and Liang Shicheng's hanging heart fell.
At the dinner table, everyone began to persuade Liang Shicheng to drink, Liang Shicheng thought for a while, and then refused.
"I can't sleep well these days, so don't drink it."
My friend still refuses to give up. "Hey, take a bite. If you get drunk, you will naturally fall asleep."
Drinking alcohol does not improve the quality of sleep. Although it can make people drowsy and help fall asleep, falling asleep and sleep quality are two different things.
The brain does not rest at night. It has more important tasks. If the brain becomes dizzy due to alcohol and reduces work efficiency, the quality of sleep will decrease.
Therefore, people who are alcoholics will have a deep sleep, only to find that they seem to be sleepy or not asleep.
In the end, the leader took the initiative to step down, "President Liang, keep your brain awake every day in the program department, so don't persuade you."
So Liang Shicheng escaped. He didn't dare to report to the company about his short-term hospitalization. He insisted on continuing to work in his current state. His sleep quality and mental state were not good, and there could be no more mistakes.
After returning home, lying on his seat, Liang Shicheng is still thinking about how to continue to improve the awakeness of the employees. Since dinner has such a big impact on the quality of sleep, there should be a lot of room for improvement. You can’t buy it casually like last time. Some vegetable miscellaneous grains are done.
Don’t eat too much for dinner, otherwise the stomach has not been digested before going to bed, and it’s not worth the loss if the stomach is swollen and it’s difficult to fall asleep. At the same time, you must also consider that the type of food cannot cause flatulence.
The stomach needs to rest when it comes to sleep, and the small intestine can continue to work.
The function of the stomach is to digest and decompose food, and the task of the small intestine is to absorb food and release it into the blood.
Vegetables are also not a suitable choice. The main ingredient of vegetables is water, which can provide limited energy. Although it is slow to absorb, it still makes people hungry at night, and the digestion burden on the stomach is not small.
In the end, he chose such a combination, soba noodles, deep-fried bean paste balls, lobster...maybe this can alleviate their complaints.
Temporarily finalizing his ultimate dinner, another thing quickly attracted Liang Shicheng's attention, that is, the importance of taking a nap.
Through the previous knowledge, we can understand why the cost-effectiveness of taking a nap is so high. A 30-minute nap is much better than an extra 30 minutes at night.
Even if I missed some things at night, I lost sleep for several hours, a short nap can make up for it.
Not only that, but naps in other time periods are not so effective.
The reason is simple. The nap happens to be during the time when the blood sugar level is very high after lunch, and most of the time in the evening sleep is in an empty stomach state.
Therefore, sleep efficiency is much higher in the state of nap with sufficient energy supply.
Remembering that there are not many employees taking naps on weekdays, Liang Shicheng is ready to change this situation.
So at noon the next day, Liang Shicheng announced a new policy,
"Everyone must take 30 minutes to take a nap. As compensation, I will find a way to make the mandatory dinner more delicious and richer."
At this moment, a short girl among the employees raised her hand in protest. She was Liang Shicheng's good friend before her promotion, and she was nicknamed the little girl.
It seems that things have not been so smooth.
