Sina Technology News Beijing time on April 24th news, according to foreign media reports, at present, neuroscientist Matthew Walker (Matthew Walker) at the 2019 TED conference said that lack of sleep seriously damages my health and life, if you Without sleep, the whole world will be exhausted, and this is also a chronic suicide.

EMILY DREYFUSS, a columnist for Wired magazine in the United States, said that I have a deep understanding of sleep deprivation. I was very tired when I participated in the 2019 TED conference in Vancouver. This is a week. Marathon presentations, seminars, coffee conferences and experience presentations, as well as debates and networking that continue into the night. At this point I was very ill, but I didn't have much sleep time and I needed to finish many manuscripts on hand. I am pregnant, which means that I want to drink coffee but can't drink too much. When I sleep, I can only lean to the left side. If I don't have a pillow, I can't breathe because I can't take medicines to treat colds during pregnancy.

Walker is a sleep expert at the University of California at Berkeley and the author of the best-selling book "Why are we sleeping?" He said: "Modern people have a fast pace of life, and there are widespread sleep deprivations that have affected human health and even our children. Both safety and education have had a devastating impact. This is a silent sleep-deficient epidemic that is quickly becoming one of the biggest challenges we face in the 21st century."

David Bello, director of the TED Congress Science Museum, often sighs in the morning about the tedious monotonous climate change and the cyber misinformation of the virus. "Yes, this is a worrying issue." .... In this state of fatigue, Walker's point of view is undoubtedly a stimulant that can make people aware of the importance of sleep to human health.

People who deprive themselves of sleep will hurt themselves: they will make you stupid, more forgetful, unable to learn new things, more likely to be demented, more likely to die from a heart attack, not have a strong immune system to fight disease, and more It may cause cancer and make your body more vulnerable. Lack of sleep can distort your genes and increase the risk of death. Walker pointed out that lack of sleep can destroy the production of estrogen and testosterone sex hormones, and lead to premature aging, obviously, the male testicles that sleep only 5 hours a night will be less than the male testicles that sleep 7 hours a night.

Walker said: "Insufficient sleep will penetrate every corner of the body. Unfortunately, sleep is not an optional luxury lifestyle. It is an unquestionable physiological need to maintain your life system."

Emily said that in all the TED talks I have heard this week, Walker's speech seems to be "tailor-made" for me. My brain hippocampus has shrunk extremely, and Walker calls it an "inbox." Sometimes I look at my swollen dark circles in the mirror. Yes, maybe I am too tired and need a good rest.

Everyone needs to sleep, they also know that they are not getting enough sleep, so their demand for sleeping pills is increasing, and sleep tracking devices are also appearing. Walker wears Euler rings to monitor their sleep quality, and smart beds can make you go to sleep quickly. . In addition, there is the "Mindfulness Sleep" mobile phone software. Journalist Arianna Huffington left the journalism industry and founded a company dedicated to sleep and health.

Walker said that don't drink coffee or drink before going to bed, go to bed at the same time every night, get up at the same time every morning, even on weekends. It is best to sleep in a cool room. If you can't fall asleep and feel troubled in bed, please get up to another room and do one thing, then go back to bed when you are ready to go to sleep. People don't wait for hunger at the table food, so why lie in bed and wait for sleepiness? Meditation can calm your nervous system and brain. Don't use hypnotics by default. They are "blunt devices that don't produce natural sleep." You can use a moderately priced portable brain stimulation device that uses transcranial direct current stimulation to help people get into deep sleep.

Walker's remarks impressed people and refuted the idea that lack of sleep and success are complementary to some extent. According to reports, Tim Cook started to get up at 3:45 in the morning, and Barack Obama said he only slept for 5 hours a day. He was a "night owl." Both Donald Trump and Elon Musk said they only slept for a few hours a night. But Musk said in the New York Times that his work schedule has had a serious impact on his mental health and his entire life. Walker said that it is time to stop thinking that sleep is weak or lazy, and in fact it may be the opposite.

Interrupting deep sleep can lead to a decline in cognitive ability. After completing the study every day, you need to sleep, basically pressing the button to save these new memories. In this way, you will not forget, but recently we found that people need to sleep before learning. It is like a dry sponge to absorb new information. Without sleep, the brain will be flooded. (叶倾城)
