Health Tips: Do you feel lethargic even after drinking tea throughout the day? The real problem is not in your cup of tea, but in your nights.
News India Live, Digital Desk:In India, tea is not just a beverage but is considered an ‘energy drink’. Be it office or home, we often resort to tea to relieve fatigue. But does it also happen to you that even after drinking cup after cup of tea, heaviness, lethargy and laziness persist in the body? Health experts say that if tea is not able to remove your fatigue, then it means that the problem is not lack of ‘energy’ but there is a malfunction in your sleep cycle. Why is your tea not working? (The Caffeine Trap) The caffeine present in tea temporarily alerts the brain, but it does not eliminate the real cause of fatigue. Sleep Debt: If you are not getting 7-8 hours of deep sleep at night, ‘Adenosine’ (a sleep-inducing chemical) keeps getting accumulated in the body. Caffeine blocks it for some time, but as soon as the effect of tea wears off, the fatigue comes back doubled. Tea and dehydration: Drinking excess tea can cause dehydration in the body, which itself is a major cause of lethargy and headache. Effect of night tea: If you drink tea after 6 pm, it spoils the quality of your night sleep, due to which you feel tired again the next morning. Doctors Advice: 3 surefire ways to get rid of lazinessIf you want to stay active throughout the day, don’t depend only on tea: Improve sleep hygiene: Stay away from mobile phones and screens at least 1 hour before sleeping at night. Sleeping in a dark and quiet room releases the ‘melatonin’ hormone properly, which leads to deep sleep. Support of Power Nap: A short sleep of 15-20 minutes in the afternoon is more effective than 3 cups of tea. It reboots the brain. Water balance: Drink at least two glasses of water with every cup of tea. If the body remains hydrated, metabolism will speed up and laziness will not come near.
