After a serious illness, in order to make up for the loss of my body, my first commitment and change to my body is to have a good sleep. He once shared his anti-cancer experience on his official WeChat account, in which sleep was listed as the first item.
Kai-fu Lee mentioned in the article that the best sleep time is after 10 every night, and the ideal sleep length is seven to eight hours. Adequate sleep has a wide range of effects on preventing or limiting tumor growth. Many studies have also pointed out that sleep is the best way to enhance immunity.
For brain rest, sleep is the most indispensable. Good sleep can promote metabolism, give the brain and body a good rest, and at the same time, sleep can relieve stress.
More importantly, many studies have found that lack of sleep is closely related to low immunity. British and Dutch researchers believe that lack of sleep will promote the production of "granular white blood cells" at night. Granular white blood cells have a direct response to body pressure, and lack of sleep leads to the disorder of day and night secretion rhythm of white blood cells, which in turn leads to greater body pressure and decreased immunity.
Good sleep can enhance immune function, increase thymosin in thymus, promote the proliferation and differentiation of T cells, and increase the number of immune cells, thus eliminating invasive bacteria and viruses.
Poor sleep quality has become a common problem for many people. But many research results show that poor sleep may increase the risk of cancer!
Researchers in Israel have shown through animal experiments that fragmentation and intermittent sleep will affect the immune system, leading to weakened anti-cancer ability. Among them, in the experimental mice whose sleep is often interrupted, the tumor growth degree is twice that of the experimental mice with good sleep.
The researchers explained that restless sleep will affect the immune system, transforming anti-cancer macrophages in the body into helping cancer spread. Once the immunity is low, it will lead to the weakening of the body's defense ability against bacteria, viruses and cancer cells existing in the body, and the virus will take advantage of it and lead to diseases.
Cancer patients generally have sleep disorders, which affect their rehabilitation. In severe cases, it will aggravate the condition and prolong the treatment time. Among them, nothing more than psychological factors, cancer pain and cancer complications.
The psychological mood of cancer patients fluctuates greatly, and they are prone to fear, anxiety and irritability. In particular, many patients worry that their families will be overwhelmed by the economic cost of treatment, resulting in guilt and even self-rejection. They often think too much at night and toss and turn and can't sleep. For this kind of patients, medical staff and their families should try their best to do the ideological work of the patients and let them cooperate with the treatment more effectively. Patients can be encouraged to participate in physical exercise or listen to music selectively during the day, and their understanding of similar cured patients can be introduced to enhance their confidence in treatment and make patients feel happy.
For many cancer patients, especially those with malignant tumors, the pain of post-treatment is very unbearable. Medical staff can reasonably use the three-step analgesic method to relieve cancer pain, and adopt suggestion therapy and relaxation therapy to minimize or eliminate patients' mental and physical pain.
Whether it is some complications caused by cancer itself, such as severe cough and dyspnea caused by lung cancer; Or nausea, vomiting and other side effects caused by chemotherapy and other means, all kinds of discomfort will make patients sleepless all night, and they can't fall asleep completely if they want to sleep, which seriously affects the mental state and physical quality of the whole person.
In fact, there are more than the above reasons, such as poor treatment environment and unaccompanied. It will affect the sleep of patients. The data shows that 52.6%-67.4% of cancer patients have sleep disorders, which is 2-3 times that of ordinary people. Sleep disorder seriously affects the quality of life of patients, and "drags down" the treatment effect and reduces the quality of life.
In his own article, Kai-fu Lee shared with you a set of beneficial sleep-aiding methods. Chen Jianming, assistant professor of psychology at Fu Jen Catholic University, introduced seven ways to form sleep patterns.
Sleep is very important to everyone, especially in the fast-paced life and work in modern society. Good sleep can motivate people to deal with tomorrow's chicken feathers, while bad sleep is enough to destroy an adult.
As Li Kaifu said in his article, everyone should ask his body: Are you tired now? Are you still tired? I can't see clearly when I get up. Do I need coffee to refresh myself?
If the answer is yes, you must pay attention. For cancer patients, the quality of sleep directly affects the quality of physical fitness and treatment effect, so good sleep quality is very important to them. # Breeze Plan # # Mid-Autumn Festival Reunion # # Here comes the truth #
