Quality sleep: why it's more important than coffee and vitamins
Learn how quality sleep affects your health, energy, and mood, and how sleep products—pillows and masks—help you sleep more deeply.
Why quality sleep is your best “superfood”
When talking about health, people most often mention nutrition, sports, and vitamins. But quality sleep affects the body just as much, and often even more. If you are constantly sleep deprived, no detox or superfood can offset the damage caused by chronic fatigue.
What gives the body a good night's rest
Studies show that 7–9 hours of sleep per day:
- reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease;
- help control weight and appetite;
- improve concentration, memory, and productivity;
- reduce stress and anxiety levels;
- improve skin condition and hormonal balance.
Conversely, chronic sleep deprivation is associated with high blood pressure, weight gain, weak immunity, and premature aging.
Signs that you are not getting enough sleep
- It's difficult to wake up without several alarm clocks.
- You only “open your eyes” after your second or third cup of coffee.
- In the evenings, you have zero energy, even though the day wasn't too difficult.
- You experience frequent mood swings and have trouble concentrating.
If this sounds like you, it's time to review your sleep schedule and the environment in which you sleep.
How to create the perfect sleeping conditions at home
The right temperature and darkness
The optimal temperature for sleep is 18–21 °C. The room should be dark: thick curtains or a good sleep mask help the body produce melatonin faster—the hormone responsible for falling asleep.
Comfortable pillow and mattress
A pillow should support the natural curve of the neck. If your neck or head hurts in the morning, it is likely that your pillow is not the right fit. Orthopedic models help align the spine and reduce muscle tension.
Evening ritual
A light snack, a shower, putting your phone away, turning on a warm light, putting on a sleep mask—a simple ritual that your brain quickly remembers as a signal that it's time to rest.
