What time we should sleep?

ANSWERED

We always want this answer??

Is there a best time to sleep? There is a saying that sleeping early and waking up early is good for your health.

How true is that? Is it alright to sleep late and wake up late?

You actually has an amazing biological clock ticking inside your body.
It is very precise. It helps to regulate your various body functions including your sleeping time.


From 11pm to 3am, most of your blood circulation concentrates in your liver.
Your liver gets larger when filled with more blood. This is an important time when your body undergoes detoxification process.
Your liver neutralizes and breaks down body toxins accumulated throughout the day.

However if you don’t sleep at this time, your liver cannot carry out this detoxification process smoothly.

If you sleep at 11pm, you have full 4 hours to detoxify your body.
If you sleep at 12am, you have 3 hours.
If you sleep at 1am, you have 2 hours.
And if you sleep at 2am, you only have 1 hour to detoxify.
What if you sleep after 3am? Unfortunately, you won’t have any time to actually detoxify your body.
If you continue with this sleeping pattern, these toxins will accumulate in your body over time. You know what happens next.
