Some familiar morning actions can harm health if performed immediately after awakening.
This was warned by the British doctor Miriam Stoppard. According to her, after sleep, the body takes time to activate metabolism and normalize the work of the internal organs. Otherwise, even common actions can have negative consequences.
Exercise immediately after awakening is not the best idea.
After a night rest, the body is dehydrated, and the muscles have not yet acquired sufficient elasticity. According to the stoppad, sharp or intense movements in this state can even damage the intervertebral discs.
Another common mistake is to drink coffee or orange juice on an empty stomach.
The doctor explained that such a habit can affect the body's ability to control the level of blood sugar, which will then "jump" at high rates. This, in turn, increases the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
It is optimal to consume coffee or juices after breakfast, when the stomach is no longer empty and metabolism is launched in stable mode.
The specialist also advises not to rush with the activity:
before getting out of bed or starting her day, you should give the body the opportunity to wake up fully. Simple stretch marks, deep breathing or a few minutes alone will help prepare the body for loading.
Conclusion: Not all "healthy" habits are equally useful at any time of the day. In order to prevent the morning from harming the body, it is necessary to give it time to move to active regime and avoid sharp actions immediately after awakening.
